aaaaghhh! trolls! Options

[earwicker7]

I'm at the point that where I'm about to scream every time I see a troll. It's the only creature that can consistently pummel me to death. I have a stealth character, so I don't do much damage. Even if I manage to sneak attack it, if I doesn't kill the troll on the first blow (which I don't) they just regenerate health so fast that I can't kill them. Any suggestions other than wimping out and lowering the difficulty?

hah, i did a split character, half stealth half heavy armour and weapons boat-kicker. i ususally sneak up on enemies like trolls and shoot them from the hiding, then fire arrows into them until they get near to me, then i whip out my sword and launch into them with a forward power attack. screaming "'AVE IT!"

oh and a good tactic i found for melle weapons, just get a weapon that you can swing really fast. i found that with weapons like that (katana, f'rinstance) you can just keep smacking enemies with an unrelenting barrage of blows and not give them room to breathe, let alone hit back. ive killed those annoying skeletal guardian blokes without getting hit once by doing this. oh, but if they have a sheild or youre a bit slow, then you can end up recoiling right back and getting a whuppin.
