What happened to trolls...?

Recommended Posts

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?

I have heard that Trolls have been beefed up significantly.

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.

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)

they seem to be quite stronger, indeed. Smaller deeds now need a disproportionate number of guards to be safe in a troll area.

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.

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 :P

I hate ninja updates like this.

 

It's a bug, not ninja update.

I assume it's something with the increase of CR on uniques that went wrong. :P

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).

Troll king probably made extra crowns to pass around.

'Normal' Trolls will revert to how they used to be on next server update.

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.

This bug sounds awesome, if only there was a server dedicated to mobs...
