Ultima IX: Ascension Hints
How can I get past the troll at the bridge?
1 of 4: If the rats don't kill him first, you may come upon a large troll guarding the bridge that leads into Paws.
2 of 4: He will ask you to pay 10 gold to pass over the bridge.
3 of 4: You can pay or not, your choice, but whatever you do, don't kill him. He is far too tough to worry with and drops nothing but his spiked club for all your effort.
4 of 4: The best answer is the second choice which will confuse him enough to ignore you. You can go on about your way afterwards.
