Tips
  • When luring the Troll Guard into the cage, try to hop down on the side the Troll Guard is not currently searching on to avoid dying.
  • Little Brother can go between the bars of the cage; practice this before luring the troll.
  • The troll cannot change direction when it charges, making it easy to evade and have it hit the chain pillars.
  • If you only interact with one of the boss troll's hands, it will use the other side to keep from falling.
