Thorn's Pass - Expert Mode Walkthru

Video at bottom of page.

Start out by using Thermite’s bombs to stun the Glass-Jaw Troll and snipe him with Chilla and don’t worry about your health.  Go through the gate when it opens and on to the stone bridge to activate the two Dragons. 

To maximize your health, you will first want to use Thermite and Chilla to rid the area of any trolls.  Morph into Ash when done and allow the Dragon to heal you before killing them.

Lower the drawbridge and move slowly forward without crossing the threshold.  The plan is to prevent the trolls from spawning in the courtyard.  Switch to Thermite and edge your way forward and to the left until the barrier is in view.  Destroy it and enter the area then drop down below to the lava pit with Thermite.

Make your first jump and cross the fence to the other side where an Elemental Fire Troll will appear and summon several Scorpions.  Destroy them as you make your way to the other end where you will make jump number two to enter the tunnel.

As you move through the tunnel, the Elemental Fire Troll will appear several times and will summon Room-Root plants which will appear close to you.  Simply morph in to Thermite and activate his shields and make your way to the other end and exit to the outside.

The Elemental Fire Troll will appear once again and summon several Fire Trolls before disappearing.  Dispose of them with Deep Blue.  Before making your next jump, destroy the four Cannon Trolls on top of the wooden towers.  You should also snipe the Cannon Troll poached up way high on the right otherwise you’ll be pounded with cannon balls as you climb.

Executing jump three will bring to the top of an area with a Troll and oil barrel.  Kill him and replenish your health.  Climb the wall and make jump four and five to get to the next area.

Here you must battle the Elemental Fire Troll whose onslaught consists of Scorpions, Fire Trolls, and Boom-Root plants.  You must use Thermite, Deep Blue, and Major Ruin to be successful.  Roll around as Thermite with his shields and bump into the Scorpions to kill them.  Use Deep Blue to kill the Fire Trolls then quickly morph back into Thermite with his shields activated and wait for the Boom-Roots to appear.  When the explode switch to Deep Blue and cool of the Elemental Fire Troll then attack with Major Ruin.  Repeat this process.  This is best illustrated in the video.  When he’s dead, the gate opens and two Trolls appear.  Push them off the edge with Deep Blue and jump through the hole to the next tunnel.

As you make your way through the tunnel, sharp rocks will materialize and can hurt if you if caught on their point of entry.  As Kameo, fly quickly to the other end and exit the tunnel. 

Here you will have to destroy an Airship, which drops Armored Trolls, while trying to avoid the sharp rocks.  Don’t waste time.  Use Thermite to destroy the ship while moving around.  Move through the gate which opens when it’s destroyed and make your next jump.

At the top, destroy all Shield Trolls that stand in your way then make your last two jumps to enter the final area. 

After making it this far, you obviously do not want to die here.  Therefore, your plan is to destroy the Shield Trolls first then the two Shell Trolls, then replenish your health then kill the last Shell Troll.  This is best illustrated in the video.

Once the area is troll free, two Dragons, an Airship, and several Armored Trolls appear.  Your focus here should be only on the Dragons.  However, you must be very careful with the Archer on the Airship.  Again, this is best demonstrated in the video.  When the Dragons are destroyed head for the exit.

You must now battle Lord Drok and upon success you will get...
