This thread is ONLY for theories and trials of the Under Giant recipe. I contributed something similar with the Aegir Trident. I have heard the Under Giant uses 3 different items: 2 gifts and 1 non-gift. I have heard theories that it uses Frost Giant and/or Elder Frost Giant. So I went and tested Frost Giant with some of my gifts, starting with Frost Giant + Thor Amulet: Viking Dagger (Viking Dagger used in another recipe) (missing Mead Horn) Viking Tunic (Thor Amulet) (missing Longbow) Viking Axes Leather Helm Poison Arrows Battle Chainmail (missing Trained Hawk) Rabbit Shield (missing Wooden Rabbit Amulet) (missing Leather Armbands) (Skull Dagger used in another recipe) Skull Tunic (missing Zombie Scorpion) War Boots Silver Armband War Belt Kite Shield Wolf Skin Cloak Gold Necklace Freyja's Tears Byggvir Ale (missing Drakkar Figurehead) Viking War Helm War Dog Vanir Statue Golden Apple of Youth Battle Swine Torch Silver Ornament North Star Charm (Iwaz Rune is used in a different recipe) Northern Knot Charm Sacred Well Lump of Coal Nordic Crossle Pendant Scroll of Vanir Knowledge Advent Wreath Blessed Oil Hiking Boots Pack Horse Odin's Mask The above items FAILED to make anything with Frost Giant and Thor Amulet. Also, I am missing some gifts...not sure why. Maybe I just overlooked them. I believe I have gone through ALL currently gift-able items, either ruling them out or stating that I lacked them There are other items that used to be gift-able (like Bonfire, which I tested) but are no longer available. And, to the best of my knowledge, no recipe in either Viking or Pirate Clan uses an ingredient that another recipe used. Yes, a recipe might use the RESULT of another, but they don't have the same ingredients. I have also tested: Frost Giant + Freyja's Tears + Hiking Boots Frost Giant + Northern Knot Charm + Freyja's Tears Frost Giant + Odin's Mask + Freyja's Tears Frost Giant + Freyja's Tears + Blessed Oil Could the Under Giant use a Blacksmith Warrior? Like "Land's End Sentinel"? That's the only one possible... Anyone have hints or failed combinations? Please list them!
Urgh. I am NOT going through that list again for the Sentinel. One round was enough. Any theories about the gifts? I thought the Odin's Mask + Freyja's Tears sounded neat...I hadn't tried the Sentinel with that, though...
More Guesswork I just realized something! If only one item is a gift, then that item HAS to come from Niflheim. Gifts are unlocked at all levels, correct? Also, the level/location requirement for a recipe applies to at least one item, the one acquired last. In this case, that is the non-gift item. Level 420...does anyone know what adventure is unlocked at that level? Niflheim opens at level 360, while Jotunheim opens at level 500. So one of the middle adventures from Niflheim. Or what can you buy at level 420? Niflheims drops are: ADVENTURE - Blood Decoy, Venom Dart, Frost Giant, Ice Dwarf, Yggdrasil Timber, Yggdrasil Ship BOSS - Yeti Ice Helm, Ice Shard Catapult, Yeti Ice Mace, Yeti Ice Sword CHALLENGE - (I don't know, but one of them is Sword of Ice and I heard the Elder Frost Giant drops as well) If you keep thinking about it, you realize that it CANNOT be a boss drop, as the boss opens at level 360 and we need level 420. It also can't be the Blood Decoy, as that is also level 360. The guess is that the non-gift is a Warrior (are there any Warrior gifts?) because the result is a Warrior, so there must be a Warrior in there somewhere. So it looks like we'll be using either the Frost Giant, Ice Dwarf, or Elder Frost Giant. Someone suggested the Land's End Sentinel, but that's unlocked at level 150. Are you following this argument? Or am I totally nuts?
FOR THE LAST FREAKING TIME, THE UNDER GIANT DOES NOT USE AUTUMN'S HAMMER! The Hammer unlocks at level 2500. Under Giant unlocks at level 420. It can be made at level 420. Autumn's Hammer CANNOT!
Level 420 unlocks the "Visit the Village of Mist 30 times". This unlocks the Odins Rune Challenge. Therefore it is logical to assume that the Elder Frost Giant is used in the Recipe. Frost Giants, Ice Dwarfs, Poison Darts, Magic Timber and Yggdrasil Ship are out of the question for recipes. Blood Decoys are unlikely in my eyes. I got the following fails from a smaller player whom I bribed into testing it out with the Hellfire Chariot Recipe. Elder Frost Giant + Undersea War Helm + Undersea Shield EFG + Undersea War Helm EFG + Undersea Shield Maybe one can use Yeti Drops for creating the Undergiant.
I don't think it uses the elder giant because the elder frost giant has a higher attack rating than the under giant. the elder frosy giant is 27A/27D, and the under giant is 25A/28D. It wouldn't make sense to use the blacksmith to make an inferior item.
But it boosts the defense...Yeah, I'm not convinced. Anyways, I heard that the Under Giant is a non-gift and two different gifts (total quantity unknown).
But that helps quite a bit! We know that the Vidar Berserker and any warrior after that won't be used!
I'm currently level 493 and the most recent gifts that had been made available for me to give are odin mask, pack mule, and hiking boots. So where these Nilfheim gifts or january gifts?

It cannot be the Land's End Sentinel. I proved why in an earlier post. And then two other players disproved MORE items; one said the Frost Giant will be used, the other that it is actually the ELDER Frost Giant.
ATTEMPTS: Frost Giant with 2 gifts Frost Giant + Thor Amulet + Viking Dagger Frost Giant + Thor Amulet + Mead Horn Frost Giant + Thor Amulet + Viking Tunic (Thor Amulet is already used) Frost Giant + Thor Amulet + Longbow Frost Giant + Thor Amulet + Viking Axes Frost Giant + Thor Amulet + Leather Helm Frost Giant + Thor Amulet + Poison Arrows Frost Giant + Thor Amulet + Battle Chainmail Frost Giant + Thor Amulet + Trained Hawk Frost Giant + Thor Amulet + Rabbit Shield Frost Giant + Thor Amulet + Wooden Rabbit Amulet Frost Giant + Thor Amulet + Leather Armbands Frost Giant + Thor Amulet + Skull Dagger Frost Giant + Thor Amulet + Skull Tunic Frost Giant + Thor Amulet + Zombie Scorpion Frost Giant + Thor Amulet + War Boots Frost Giant + Thor Amulet + Silver Armband Frost Giant + Thor Amulet + War Belt Frost Giant + Thor Amulet + Kite Shield Frost Giant + Thor Amulet + Wolf Skin Cloak Frost Giant + Thor Amulet + Gold Necklace Frost Giant + Thor Amulet + Freyja's Tears Frost Giant + Thor Amulet + Byggvir Ale Frost Giant + Thor Amulet + Drakkar Figurehead Frost Giant + Thor Amulet + Viking War Helm Frost Giant + Thor Amulet + War Dog Frost Giant + Thor Amulet + Vanir Statue Frost Giant + Thor Amulet + Golden Apple of Youth Frost Giant + Thor Amulet + Battle Swine Frost Giant + Thor Amulet + Torch Frost Giant + Thor Amulet + Silver Ornament Frost Giant + Thor Amulet + North Star Charm Frost Giant + Thor Amulet + Iwaz Rune Frost Giant + Thor Amulet + Northern Knot Charm Frost Giant + Thor Amulet + Sacred Well Frost Giant + Thor Amulet + Lump of Coal Frost Giant + Thor Amulet + Nordic Crossle Pendant Frost Giant + Thor Amulet + Scroll of Vanir Knowledge Frost Giant + Thor Amulet + Advent Wreath Frost Giant + Thor Amulet + Blessed Oil Frost Giant + Thor Amulet + Hiking Boots Frost Giant + Thor Amulet + Pack Horse Frost Giant + Thor Amulet + Odin's Mask It looks like the Under Giant does not use the Frost Giant AND the Thor Amulet. Frost Giant + Odin's Mask + Pack Horse Frost Giant + Odin's Mask + Hiking Boots Frost Giant + Odin's Mask + Blessed Oil Frost Giant + Blessed Oil + Pack Horse Frost Giant + Blessed Oil + Hiking Boots Frost Giant + Pack Horse + Hiking Boots Frost Giant + Drakkar Figurehead + Odin's Mask What would really help is for someone to take the Frost Giant (or Elder Frost Giant) and systematically go through the gifts. Like I did for the Thor Amulet, you pick a gift and test all the other gifts. I know it takes awhile, but it's highly useful!
