Troll generals are huge and powerful Giant trolls that live in Troll Stronghold, on the top floor.

Troll generals have a reasonably high drop rate of law and nature runes. This can be advantageous for players wishing to high alch drops such as Steel Platebodies and Adamant Hatchets for profit, and for players using prayer via the Ardougne cloak/Trollheim Teleport prayer restoration method. Utilising these methods, players can remain here for limitless hours collecting noted drops and high alching cheap weapons and armour for profit, however for profit alone, there are more profitable alternative methods of training. Furthermore, herbs can be noted with the Tool Leprechaun on top of the stronghold, provided that My Arm's Big Adventure has been completed.

As a slayer task, Troll generals are a convenient, higher-level choice when assigned Trolls. They have a reasonably high drop rate of nature runes and weapons and armour, including the occasional Granite shield. Furthermore, they provide a very easy 150 slayer experience for medium-high level players, providing the recommended prayer method is used.

Strengths and weaknesses

Troll Generals have surprisingly low accuracy. Nevertheless, high leveled melee armour (Barrows or better) is still recommended if not using prayer, as they can hit extremely hard (over 350). Therefore, use of the Protect from Melee prayer or Deflect Melee curse is strongly recommended. It is possible to use ranged or magic attacks on the generals safely, as their large size allows them to be corner safe-spotted. Extreme caution is advised at all times, as they can leave their respective rooms, although this is a rare occurrence, and they only attack if the player walks right next to them. It is possible to poison them, run out of their range, and let the poison do most of the work. They have a considerable weakness to stab, so the best weapon to use would be a Zamorakian spear, a chaotic rapier or a chaotic longsword in conjunction with protection prayers, though using a halberd from a safe-spot is also an option.

Trivia
