They'll just show up when collecting from buildings (from what I've seen). Make sure you haven't trapped a skunkupine or fangbeast, because if you have, no other beasties will show up.

^--- yes!!

Still working on defeating the 30 beasts. Already maxed out on the trolls but that's what I keep getting. Probably because I'm collecting mushrooms like I'm running a LSD factory >_<

So if you want a date with the trolls, just pick mushrooms =__=

I haven't seen it glow blue, but the picture of the sword makes it look blue? Maybe that's what they mean.

Yepper, finally! Thank you (and to everyone else who helped!)

I'm keeping my tavern "in progress," mostly because I don't trust Thurston to stay sober, but also because I don't have the glimmer dust to make super glue yet. I haven't triggered anything from mining yet.

Much much much love, thanks for helping out with ivy's hut!

i'm working on the 30 beasts goal as well but i just can't seem to trigger the fangbeast anymore. i get plenty skunkupines basically every 2-3 plots of corn or wheat, decent amount of trolls from royal buildings but not even 1 single fangbeast which is really weird since before this goal i would only get fangbeasts even when collecting from plots. any ideas what i should be collecting from or harvesting or mining or whatever else i could do?

What mushrooms work best to find a glimmer troll?

Mushrooms don't work for me. They always show up around my mines or royal buildings

I have had 6 glimmer trolls so far, and still no pants. Am I missing something?

Each time you defeat a troll there is a certain percentage chance that you'll get the pants. I know some who got it on the first all the way through to some who took a dozen or so goes. I hope you get them soon.

Thanks, Maguar. Murphy's Law kicked in, and the next troll I got after posting this was holding the pants. Poor Thurston, though - it seems he doesn't put them on straight away, so he's still shivering in those ridiculous boxers!

Glad you got the pants. I hope you have better luck with the helmet

If your looking for glimmer dust, buy some dead trees. They produce more than mushrooms and buildings.
