This suggestion entails a new way of hiring Trolls, for the future when Trolls and Hiring are added into Renewed of course, if this suggestion is Endorsed.
Trolls, I believe, are way to easy to hire. All you have to do is simply gain alignment and coin, (a lot, yes, but its still pretty simple) find an Angmar Orc Commander, and just like that, you have a beast that can cause untold destruction!
This, in my opinion, does not do the beasts justice. Therefore, I have come up with a suggestion to improve the hiring of Trolls....
-----------------------------
The first step in this new way of hiring, is crafting a "troll chain". This will be a large chain that works like a lead for trolls. It can be crafted on any Orcish crafting table in a similar manner to the chains in the newest Minecraft versions, but with iron blocks replacing the iron ingots, and iron ingots replacing the nuggets.
After you have crafted the troll chain, you must find a troll. Only normal trolls and hill trolls can be tamed with the troll chain. Olog-Hai and Mirk-Trolls should be tamed in a different way (how, I know not).
After you have found the troll, you will have to construct a five block high column, preferably made of stone, as anything else will break. Once this is done, you will right-click the troll with the chain.
(Note: only with sufficient alignment can you capture trolls in such a manner. Any player with alignment below the necessary amount will learn, very painfully, how foolish it is to try and capture a troll with a chain).
Assuming you have the right amount of alignment, the troll will be attached to the chain. However, you're not out of the woods yet! The troll will struggle profusely, regardless of alignment. Make sure to bring good armour, as captured trolls are stronger than regular ones!
Assuming you survived the struggles, you must now attach the chain to the stone column. Afterwards, the taming process will begin. Simply feed the troll meat (different amounts, depending on the type of meat. For example, tiny chicken meat will require 50 - 90, whereas large cow meat will require only 25 - 50. Feel free to change the numbers of course, I'm terrible at giving numbers :D). Just be careful, as the troll might just attempt to scoff you up instead of the offered meat!
Assuming you've given enough meat, and survived, the troll will now be tamed.
Why do I suggest this? As the beginning of this suggestion said, I believe trolls are too easy to get. If this seems like its to difficult an endeavour, perhaps buffing trolls a bit might help? Regardless, I've created this suggestion, it is my hope that it may one day in the fire be added.
Thank you for reading (and, if you gave kudos, double thanks!). Further suggestions, comments, criticism, and just about anything are welcome!
Can't wait to see the forum's thoughts on this! :)
