Yeah every1 can do that, but i did it first:P

Commentaire de Firionia

Saw him myself today :D
He walks along the Path of the Titans in Dragonblight.

Commentaire de Vlad

Ironically, Jotun (from norse mytology, known as Jotun/Jotne) is a giant that dwells in Útgarðar (ironically refering to the zone "Utgarde" in WoW) and Jötunheimr. Jotners is in some context are Æsir 's enemies and in other their sex-partners. - Well, you can draw connections why they named this giant Jotun, kinda fits him doesn't it?

Commentaire de Arathanar

The Vrykul city of Jotenheim in Icecrown is most likely named after him. In Jotenheim, Vrykul duel and battle to make a name for themselves and eventually battle at Valhalas (Valhalla). Those who win become the Ymirjar, or Chosen Warriors, that we know as Frost Vrykul, and go to Ymirheim.

Both Ymirhiem and Ymirjar are probably named after King Ymiron, who is in turn named after Ymir, who I think was the King of Giants in Norse mythology. Don't quote me on that.

The Vrykul who fail at Valhalas or earlier become the Vargul, or Undead Vrykul. Oddly, Ingvar the Plunderer became one even though he was "judged worthy". Whether Vrykul view undeath as a curse or blessing is unclear, but they do know the Lich King as the "Death God", and have referenced him as such on several occasions.

Needless to say, Vrykul society is VERY complex, but, in my opinion, very interesting.

Commentaire de Wolfwarg

The thing I like best about this guy is when he is walking down the Path of the Titans, and does that little jump over the gap in the path. I dunno why, but it just cracks me up!
"Look at me. I am a scary stone giant! Roar. Now I jump over the little gap. Weeeeeeeeee!" :D

Commentaire de 150793

So apparently Tseric wasn't fired, they trapped him in the game.

Pity.

Commentaire de 151381

You'd think that for a giant his size he'd shake your screen until you throw up.

Commentaire de Calum

Hit me, level 80 resto druid, for 4-5k and was Immune to roots.

Just in case you wanted to kill him :)

Commentaire de 261478

Soloed as a Holy Pally. Dropped a lvl 69 green spellpower mace, and is minable.
Going to kill again to confirm if he always drops greens.

EDIT: Tried killing him again, no green.

Commentaire de 261314

Just soloed as a prot warrior, he's a weaky.. hit me for 900 dmg, I blocked, dodged, and parried alot, I used Shield Wall, Shield Block, Enraged Regeneration, Moroes' Lucky Pocket Watch, and my other trinket, Medallion of Heroism. Wasn't that hard.

Dropped only cash and x2 Frostweave, then I mined him for Geodesic Fragments.

Commentaire de 152517

i figured id try him anyway, as a lvl 74 Dk, with 13k health, 15k armor- all plate*, he hit me for 2490 melee and a crit for 4800. just for more info. lol

( * )= the reason why i said all plate is cause i usually use a couple armor pieces that offer resistance(such as shadow or fire ect.) but not that time.

Commentaire de DigitalDJ

Soloed him as an 80 Prot Warrior. Not immune to stun.

Dropped 64 Silver and mined him for Geodesic Fragments. (i.e. Drops nothing)

Commentaire de 274455

I managed to solo this guy myself, lv 80 prot warrior, took a pot some CDs and some luck.
Its possible but really not worth it or necessary unless bored.
Crappy UI I know but Im fine with it.

Commentaire de WarriorsFtw

I thought Thrym was just a giant flesh abomination that the scrouge constructed... that he really had nothing to do with the titans and giants... in fact, i think it was said that he is made from the flesh of falled giants.

Commentaire de riltin

To be completely honest with you, I figured his curse was walking up and down this path mindlessly forever.

I could be wrong of course. : P

Commentaire de Ripenoli

Could the curse be bears be the curse of flesh?

Commentaire de FattyXP

Dropped 1g 28s and 2 frostweave cloth for me. Killed with an 80 DK and Mage.

Commentaire de 18814

I hate to be the one to digress from this interesting chat about etymology and mythology, but... Does anyone know if this NPC has a concrete function in the game yet? Or is he there merely for flavor?

Commentaire de Falconblade

Atm there is no purpose for him, as i tracked him while he was walking from north to south (and jumping over gaps xD) but i reckon there will be something coming for him, as a lvl 80 Elite isnt there just for the jumping.
Like Fel Reaver maybe there will be a quest to kill him sometime....

Noone knows :P

Commentaire de spawnofmoose

Saw him for the first time today. My girlfriend and I think he could be tied to the Ulduar raid in the near future.
He isnt worth killing either atm because a) he only has like 189k health and b) he doesnt drop anything worth mentioning.

Commentaire de Ahrendel

You can mine the big guy.

Commentaire de 92344

I was able to solo him today as an 80 Death Knight unholy spec. It took all my cooldowns to stay alive, even with mitigation from boneshield and Icebound Fortitude he still hits for good 2-3k a swing. It is unfortunate that he serves no purpose but should he in the future know that a group is hardly needed.

Also killing something that jumps like that is like killing a mockingbird.

Commentaire de Dragonrhonin

Expect to see info on this big guy coming in 3.1. It seems that blizzard intends to unleash the lore, in more than once sense, with Ulduar, and I suspect that he shall come into play whether as a quest giver or objective. What curse does he bear? Why does he endlessly walk the path of the titans? Why is his jump so ridiculous? That, we shall know, soon^TM.

Commentaire de 211544

I hope we get to do something with him in patch 3,1

He seems like an interesting fellow, I wonder if it's because of him the path of titan's was destroyed...oh well, Speculations ;D

Commentaire de 322785

Soloed him very easily today on my 80 prot warrior.

Commentaire de wilosoft

Just killed him ask Frost tank DK, he was hitting me 1700 to 2500 on my 28k armor. I used death pact though. He dropped 84 silver only >.>

Commentaire de dumac

I think he most likely bear the curse of flesh, it makes some sense, but perhaps as the name suggest he is immune to the curse effects but still carry it. like a spreader.

So perhaps he is a clue in the curse of that thingie who made us earthen mushie and vrukyl fleshie:)

Also why has the lich king left him to be, bit curious about that, he raises big arse vyrms next door but does not bother checking out a living titan:)

Commentaire de 202286

I believe that all previously stated posts are completely and totally applicable to Jotun, but I decided to look at this from another perspective.

1) Curse of Flesh (already posted by others)
2) Demon Soul (my perspective)

You see, after Neltharion(Deathwing) was banished from using the soul, it was given to something. In WoWwiki, Jotun <the Curse Bearer> is flat out called a titan. As previously stated, why would the Titans abandon one of their own? Well, since all of their other created beings failed, maybe they decided: "Why not leave an extra guardian on this planet?". After Jotun was abandoned/left behind, I believe that the Dragonflights, knowing that a Titan is even more powerful than Deathwing, decided that he should hold on to it... Of course, the Dragonflights didn't see what happened to Deathwing after he held the Demon Soul for so long, and I am led to believe that Jotun's body deteriorated over the ten thousand years in between Deathwing's defeat and Nekros' capture of it.
Because Jotun was weakened and deteriorated by the Demon Soul, I believe that he was moved closer to Wyrmrest so he could be watched closely by Alexstrasa, but when Zuluhed appeared to take the Demon Soul, he faced Alexstrasa and (a weakened)Jotun, the Demon Soul activated and destroyed the Path of the Titans. Because of this, Zuluhed would have been able to run off with the Demon Soul while Alexstrasa and Jotun were distracted/injured.
Of course I have no idea why he would be called <The Curse Bearer> now, unless it is simply a reference to his past...

EDIT: The Demon Soul was a featureless golden disc...perhaps crafted from a disc of norganonn? or at least something like it?

Commentaire de 346479

so what the hell is this mob for?

Commentaire de 240259

Jotun, giant in the old Norse language.

Commentaire de 358189

all quiet at this front :(

Commentaire de 298099

I expect that in Ulduar they might've trapped the curse of flesh inside him, so that no more people would be infected. What if there was a biological error in his way that made him immune to the Curse of Flesh?

Commentaire de 290947

Also you will want to note that this guy runs substantially faster then regular walking speed when engaged. He caught me very quickly even with Aspect of the Cheetah on.

Commentaire de 369054

i think his curse is to be stuck to the Path of the Titans for eternity. How could he have the curse of flesh if his body is pure stone?

Commentaire de 226781

Does he drop Design: Inscribed Monarch Topaz? Or is it a bug?

Commentaire de 258663

If you're farming him for the Jewelcrafting Recipe

He has a 3 minute respawn timer

He respawns at 63.0,11.8 which is right at the top of the Dragonblight Path

Commentaire de 113359

Soloed as a feral druid in T 7.5. I dodged or my savage defense absorbed almost every attack. The attacks that did hit me were for around 1.6k and easily healed by LOTP. He died with me at 100% health without using any CD's (barkskin, survival instincts, frenzied regen). Should be easily soloable by any tank class. I have been trying to farm the inscribed monarch topaz recipe from him, 17 kills and no luck so far.

I was looking for a good place to farm the recipe as well, but this NPC can be very misleading. If you notice on his drop table he has only been looted 24 times (at the time of this posting) and one of those times he happened to drop the inscribed recipe so it gave the drop a 4% from this mob, but in reality its the same drop rate from any "eligible" mob that drops the recipe its just because this one has been killed so few times and it dropped once that its given an inflated percentage.

Commentaire de Organthrone

Since my Norse blood can't do it in the present day, I had to go slay Jotun for kicks in the game, without even breaking a sweat. Was pretty fun, to boot.

Commentaire de 256236

He actually spawns at 49,74 Crystalsong Forest.

3 Minute respawn.
Stunnable, but not rootable.

Goodluck!

Commentaire de 349749

This guy hits extremely hard. My Felguard has 15k health and was killed quickly despite having health funnel up. Then he came over and two-shotted me. I don't think he is soloable unless you're a truly OP class like a Paladin.

Commentaire de OtakuFox

Solo'd him as a Prot warrior in average gear (blues, some epics).

Had to pop a potion, Enraged Regeneration, and Shield Wall, but I still beat him. :D

Commentaire de Nija

To add a little bit, Jotun is a presumed Dark Titan (so a corrupt titan; see Sargeras)

Commentaire de cawfee

I kited him to Agmar's Hammer on my Priest. There was a brief moment of chaos!

Then he died.

That's what you get for not having any lore to you.

Commentaire de 27804

Tried to decurse him, didn't work :(

Commentaire de 261178

The Fel Reaver is needed to forge the key to Shattered Halls btw.

Yes and theres a quest for it thats exactly what he was talking about

Commentaire de 261178

You don't mess with a Titan.
=D

maby hes just shy?

Commentaire de 397133

Not snareable, meaning mages have little chance to solo this guy. Hits 5k+ on cloth.

Commentaire de MikauSchekzen

I've leveled 3 characters through Dragonblight, and I've never seen this guy before. Am I really that blind?

Commentaire de 116751

Jotun
A body of black that carried no reflection

Sounds about right.

(quote from the song Jotun by In Flames)

Commentaire de luio2revenge

Sry but the titans didn't trasmute the earthen to flesh like and they did not bare the curse of flesh... the curse of flesh was created by the old ones to better assimilate the earthen, they would be of less threat in a flesh form that they could either eat or cut in half easily (that's just parafrasing, they didn't eat anybody or cut in half... maybe they would but the main point was lesser their thred) the problem with the old gods is that (some of them) are attuned to Azeroth, and their destruction could mean the destruction of azeroth, the necrophotic parasite thingy is the curse of flesh, the old gods didn't "curse" as the warlocks would, they sent parasites to the earthen to weaken them transforming their stone to flesh, thus in the creation of the Troggs (let's say they were what the old gods expected to do) and the dwarven (the lucky ones) when the titans arrived to see this curse on their creations, they started to study the parasite... the curse couldn't be removed, as it would mean in the "loss of host" so they removed they eliminated the parasite but the dwarves and troggs remained like they were after the curse... they couldn't be saved, so they desided to bury the troggs, as they where the unacceptable race, and they left the dwarves be, as they weren't an aberration to their creation. After this sight and removal of the parasite the titans desided to increase the defences, they created a factory for the earthen and a new "library" on azeroth which we call Ulduar, they set up keepers, Algalon (sistem defences), Loken, Aesir and Vanir. And they desided to power up the existing dragon (you were right they wern't created by the titans) and by doing so they created the Dragonflights and their respective Aspects (that's when alextrasza becomes the "Life-binder") and they left. Then Yogg'Saron exploited his MC spell and used Loken to make the defences go against each other (Aesir and Vanirs wars) and took controll of the keepers and ulduar, then he freed himself, we find him, and smite him =) and the Kirin Tor take credit for it... (&/$%·$ if you ask me)

Commentaire de Strudels

Curiously.. he has the same model as Loken.

Coincidence? well.. yeah, he can't be in two places at once, right?

Commentaire de 443886

Does a huge leap when he reaches 66,23

Commentaire de Artora

The path he keeps walking on, when you follow it straight to the sea, it goes right into the Maelstrom. Maybe that has something to do with "The Curse"? Just a theory!

Commentaire de 111658

I killed him before I read this... and then came across all of the great dialogue about him. I probably should have looked him up on wowhead first because his drops are depressing - 52 silver and 16 copper? For a big dude like that, it must be like pocket lint for him, except that he doen't have any pockets (I tried to pick his pockets). I sent in a pic of the dead Jotun - hopefully it will get submitted.

Commentaire de Cryz8210

Hooooly balls! This guy hasn't had a purpose since WRATH and now finally in Legion he's got one!

It's more likely that Blizzard just happend to remember this guy was there for no reason, rather than them actually having so much foresight as to plan this guy's use in an Artifact quest, 4 expansions later.

Still cool, however.

Commentaire de grimmtooth

Jotun is one of the allies of Tyr in his efforts to relieve Loken of the Discs of Norgannon (which they then hid in Uldaman). The curse he bears is a curse from the Old Gods, and was bestowed by Loken himself in payment for aiding Tyr. He is doomed to roam the world and attack any ally of Tyr he encounters.
