Gammeltroll has 3,000 health and spawns in the Deep North.
It takes extra damage from pickaxe; it resists blunt, slash, pierce and frost; fire and spirit do nothing to it at all.
Its hardest hit is punch at 220 blunt, out of 5 attacks.
Of everything craftable, 
Lightning Strike, 
Thunderblood Crossbow and 
Thunderblood Sledge put the most damage through what it resists.
Gammeltroll is the Deep North's elder troll and the largest creature in the game, spawning day and night at 3,000 health with a run speed of 3, half what an ordinary 
Troll manages. It resists blunt, slash, pierce and frost, is immune to fire and spirit, and is weak to pickaxe, with the head very weak to pickaxe, which makes the head the only quick way through it. Its punch hits for 220 blunt, its ground slam for 200, and its thrown boulder for 150, each carrying 100 chop. It has no drop table at all: on death it turns into a Petrified Gammeltroll of 52 segments, which no pickaxe will touch and which has to be blown apart with 
Ember Charge or 
Explosive Payload for 
Petrified Tissue, the raw source of 
Bloodgold.
There is no clean weapon answer. No pickaxe exists in the Frostfire or Thunderblood lines, so the only tool that hits its weakness is the mining pickaxe in your belt, and that does not deal enough to make a 3,000 health fight worth it. It also drops nothing at all, no trophy, no material. Unless it is standing between you and somewhere you need to be, walk around it. If you do fight, its punch is 220 blunt, the hardest single hit of any non-boss creature in the game.
| Where | Roll | Group | Conditions |
|---|---|---|---|
| Deep North | 15% every 1500 s, max 1 near you | 1 | above 10 m |
Each 64 m zone keeps its own timer per entry and rolls the chance once per interval while loaded; a zone never loaded before rolls the moment you arrive. The spawn lands 40 to 80 m from a player, never inside a base unless noted, and "max near you" counts the loaded area around that zone. Dungeon and camp spawners are separate and not counted here.
With devcommands enabled, this spawns Gammeltroll in front of you. The third number is the level: 3 spawns a 2-star.
