whats the deal with those forest trolls?
   

I'm playing through the single player part of the game with my lev. 30 combat mage. I just arrived at the dark forest part of the game and ran into some forest trolls and I can't even hurt them! Is there some kind of trick to killing them that don't know about?

There is no trick, the only problem I had with trolls in this game is their AI is set so they run away when they are about 2/3 damaged, causing my characters to follow and get into more trouble.

I've had no trouble killing them though, although I used melee/ranged/magic. Perhaps they are more magic resistant than I noticed. Have you tried summoning a creature for aid?

Hello ROth,

I also had no problems with them. All attacks (melee, bow, magics) were succesful and made them damage.

Keep in mind that if they run away... they will heal quite rapidly... Not to full health in 1 minute or anything... but you can watch their health increase... so hunting them down is good... Though eventually, they will return to attack you... even those with much fewer hit points... so you will get them eventually...

While I have thus far only noticed the Forest Trolls running away to heal... I am sure that other creatures do so also... but I've hacked them to bits before they get the chance...

The trolls have a high armor rating... and are tough targets to hit, and to deplete of hit points... and having them running off and healing, doesn't help...

Hey ROth,

Yep i'm having the same problem. Whenever I hit one of these trolls I do damage to it, but in a blink of an eye they are at full hit points again

Ranged attacks worked best for me. I gave everyone a bow, even my mages and they basically just mowed 'em down.

Hi Lady Rae, welcome to the forums.
