Posted June 19, 2014 So a troll was on my deed this morning. I have like 70 fs, and the attack options for the troll were all red. This was just a normal aged troll, mind you. Is this a bug, or? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 19, 2014 I have heard that Trolls have been beefed up significantly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 19, 2014 The unique CR rebalance massively buffed Trolls CR at the same time. They deal same damage, have same or slower attack rates, but their fighting skill is upped (your attack speed and accuracy is lower). No clue if it's intentional or not, was not mentioned in the dev notes as intended. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted June 19, 2014 (edited) I am sure we could spend more euro/dollars to solve the problem with a few of the weak templars.Must have a reason that a) trolls can enter the deeds you payed for, Templars get weaker and weaker and, oh wonder, trolls get stronger and strong.Very clever, really. (for the usual wannabe-tough-chaosguy that pops up at this point, we are already at FS 70, wait a little longer, then FS 80+ won´t be enough anymore, too) Edited June 19, 2014 by Westfold 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 19, 2014 yeah... I am sure we could spend more euro/dollars to solve the problem with a few of the weak templars.Must have a reason that a) trolls can enter the deeds you payed for, Templars get weaker and weaker and, oh wonder, trolls get stronger and strong.Very clever, really. (for the usual wannabe-tough-chaosguy that pops up at this point, we are already at FS 70, wait a little longer, then FS 80+ won´t be enough anymore, too) I have quite a bit more then 80+ fs and 80+ weapon skill w/70+ weapon skill.. I missed 12 times in a row? Reaaallly? I couldnt target either.. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 19, 2014 they seem to be quite stronger, indeed. Smaller deeds now need a disproportionate number of guards to be safe in a troll area. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 19, 2014 Old troll killed one spirit guard and three regular guards all fighting it together. They didn't make a dent in it. This game change isn't going to make me want to pay out more, in fact it's making me want to pay less. In fact, may even make me cancel the spirit templar all together if it can't do it's job.

Posted June 19, 2014 Can't see what the problem is. I had an Aged Champ Troll come and annoy me on my deed. It died, I lived. I have studded leather armour and a nice LT cast on my huge axe which certainly help. Yes it was harder to hit and I couldn't shift direction of my attack most of the time. but I won so Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 19, 2014 (edited) Heard this from a friend as well. I have yet to fight one. Edited June 19, 2014 by Sharkin Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted June 19, 2014 (edited) I assume it's something with the increase of CR on uniques that went wrong. Edited June 19, 2014 by Sharkin Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 19, 2014 Heard this from a friend as well. I have yet to fight one. Fought and killed a young one with 70fs yesterday. It killed a templar quite handily. I wasn't able to hit it until about 3 focus levels in. Considering I was hitting at about the same rate on it with 3 focus as I did before the bug without focus, they seem to have gotten +3 CR (30 extra levels of fighting).

Posted June 19, 2014 Can confirm, was splattered 6 times by a single troll 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 19, 2014 I can usually kill trolls alone, but I almost died fighting a plain old one with five guards and a templar. And they beat the living hell out of your armour too. I had drake on and it gave 9 damage to my chest armour. My other character got even more damage wearing very high quality AOSP chain. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
