Objectives

Samir at Granite Springs wants you to use the Bounty Hunter's Cage on an ice troll that's been stunned by Budd.

You must take Budd to the Ruins of Drak'Zin and speak to him when near a Drakkari troll.

• Captured Live Ice Troll

Description

'Ol Budd's seen better days.

Ever since our stay in Ghostlands he's been useless to us. We've had to find ways to make it on our own, and today that means sellin' trolls to the highest bidder.

Fortunately, we've recently found a use for Budd. Something about his condition allows him to mingle with the local trolls, so we taught him a little game that's turned us a tidy profit.

See for yourself. Talk to Budd, take him southwest to Drak' Zin Ruins and use this cage as soon as he tags a troll.

Progress

Have you managed to cage an ice troll?

Completion

Great work, <class>. Looks like we'll be keepin' Budd around a little longer.

We'll have your cage picked up right away. Here's your share of the bounty.

Oh, and welcome to the camp. Stick around and I'm sure we'll find a use for ya....

Notes

Budd must aggro the troll in order to stun it and knock it out (to do this, use the "sap" option on his pet bar or press Ctrl-4 when you have a troll targeted). Players will have Budd's attention span for 10 minutes, so move quick!
