Description

Umboda Three-Heads is one o' the biggest trolls you'll see around. He's a savage butcher, takin' heads for his own collection, dwarf and troll alike! It's time he got what he deserved. Look for the big brute on the lower terraces, and you take his own head right back here!

Where to go

Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • All That SkittersThe Hinterlands · Level 10-30

    There's somethin' I've noticed up there... Jintha'Alor's full of spiders. Small ones about as big as yer hand. Not an unusual sight for the Hinterlands, but somethin's amiss. To be honest, I don't trust the trolls to keep pets. They're up to somethin'. I need you to bring me some of those spiders.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Death to the VilebranchThe Hinterlands · Level 10-30

    We're makin' good progress. Keep pressing on, and don't falter! The Vilebranch berserkers fight like savage animals, whipped into a blood frenzy. Their shadowcasters summon foul spirits from beyond this world! This is why we're getting rid of these depraved creatures, <name>, never forget that.
