Hand of Nilganihmaht
Of all the giants who dared defy the Jailer, Nilganihmaht was the most arrogant. For this transgression, the giant's severed hand was hidden within a veil of torments, and the rings that could summon it back were scattered across the Maw.
🎯 How to get it
Nilganihmaht Control Ring teaches the Hand of Nilganihmaht, a crawling hand mount. This item is a quest reward from Gotta Hand It To Ya, which becomes available after returning five rings to the Hand of Nilganihmaht NPC in the Hollow of the Insolent at inside the Rift in the Maw. This is one of the secrets that counts for Mind-Seeker.
Why moderate? Farmable drop — weekly lockouts help.
