@Aimee: Trust me, I did read their post. You can run away from Eikthyr the moment you spawn, eventually you will be outside his aggro area, and then you're free to do whatever you want. Just don't get too close to where Eikthyr roams.

That's why I said you can just start over in another corner of the starter continent and just ignore Eikthyr for now.

Absolutely no cheating required.

To the others: Yes, of course you can kill Eikthyr with far less equipment... IF you happen to know what the f... you are doing.

Obviously the OP is new to this game and needs a more surefire way and level of preparedness to get rid of 9V-Bambi.
