Updated September 2026

Obor is the Hill Titan, a hill giant boss in the Edgeville Dungeon entered with a giant key from hill giants. He drops the Hill giant club and giant bones, and is one of the two free-to-play bosses alongside Bryophyta. His chest, opened with a key, holds the better loot including the club. This guide gives you a practical starting route, loadout direction, and decision-first checklist so you can get into consistent kills faster.

F2P/P2P Boss

Boss Overview

Obor is a f2p/p2p boss in themiscellaneous bosses bracket. This encounter rewards practical loadout choices and repeatable mechanics more than flashy max-hit attempts.

Obor attacks with melee and ranged, and Protect from Missiles halves his ranged damage. His slam can knock you back and delay your next attack whether or not you are against a wall. When he dies he drops giant bones that are buried directly from the ground, and the chest is opened with a giant key for the real loot.

For a first kill, Magic is the safest route because he is weak to it and Snare or Entangle can hold him at a distance while you cast. Wait until he is near one end of the room, bind him, then run to the other side and cast. Melee kills faster but is more dangerous, and low-level players should keep Protect from Missiles up and bring food.

Your current setup should match your trip objective. If you are learning mechanics, favor sustain and control. If you are already consistent, add damage gradually.

Build consistency first, then optimize kill speed in controlled steps.

How The Fight Works

Entry Setup

Open each run with a consistent setup routine to reduce avoidable errors.

Core Mechanic Loop

Use the same clean mechanic cycle each kill for Obor before adding optimizations.

Trip Sustain

Preserve supplies with low-risk choices so your average trip value stays stable.

Bank and Repeat

Reset quickly, review one improvement point, and keep run volume high.

Prep Checklist

  • Lock one stable loadout before you chase max DPS variants.
  • Pre-plan your inventory around your expected trip length.
  • Set one clear objective for each trip (KC, task, uniques, or practice).

Mechanic Checklist

Focus on clean rotations, predictable movement, and stable supplies.

  • Use Magic and Snare or Entangle to hold Obor at range - he is weak to Magic and cannot reach you while bound.
  • Protect from Missiles halves his ranged damage; if you melee, stand against a wall so his slam cannot knock you back.
  • You can keep killing Obor after the first key: he respawns when you touch the chest and drops giant keys at 1/16.

Common Mistakes

  • Over-prioritizing damage upgrades before mastering mechanics.
  • Bringing too many switches and losing consistency under pressure.
  • Staying too long on weak supplies and losing overall hourly value.

Progression Targets

  1. Stage 1: Build a reliable Obor starter setup in Gear Picker and secure consistent clears.
  2. Stage 2: Optimize trip length through cleaner mechanics and inventory control.
  3. Stage 3: Add a stronger DPS variant and compare real run outcomes.
  4. Stage 4: Finalize a shareable Obor loadout set for your ongoing route.

Notable Drops

  • Hill giant club
  • Rune items
  • Beginner boss rewards

03What setup style should I start with for Obor?

Start with a Melee or Ranged setup focused on consistency, then tune damage once your kill flow is stable. Build and test your own setup in the Gear Picker before long trips.

04Is Obor good for profit?

Obor can be strong for profit depending on your kill consistency, trip length, and unique drop luck. Prioritize repeatable clears over risky max-DPS setups.
