Trolls Will Not Die?

[SickFox]

Just got to Dragon's Eye and the trolls will not die. They fall down but stand back up again and I can't seem to kill them. Is this a glitch?

[Akamanah]

Use fire or acid, Luke.

Save your acid and fire arrows to use on them once they are down but dont forget to switch to normal arrows again as the specialist ones are in limited supply. There is a sword adds some fire damage and I believe a dagger with acid damage (or so I have read). You could also try some pots of fire you can collect and mage fire spels too etc if needed.

I have no fire arrows or a weapon with fire or acid damage. Are those only pick up items or can I buy them somewhere? I don't have a straight up mage either.

If you are at the stage where you are killing Trolls there will have been mobs who would have fire arrows, you may have missed looting them while killing enemies. I don't think you can buy them I have not seen any in kuldahar. Also certain lizardmen drop pots which you can equip and throw at the downed Trools but again you need to loot ths explosive fire pot of corpses.

Ok. Thank you for your help, dude.

By the time you reach Dragon's eye level 2, things that can be used to kill troll:

Arcane spells: burning hands, Melf's acid arrow
Consumable: Flaming oil, flaming arrow, acid arrow (the arrows are looted from enemy archers so if you kills too slow, they may be used up)
Weapons: some weapons have a chance to do fire damage, but they are random so you may not get them. You can buy a weapon called Troll slayer but the price is more than 30K.
Class abilities: Monk of sun soul, dragon disciple have fire attack.

Kill it with fire!

i know this is probobly an old thread but whoever was suggesting fire bombs ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ saved me i only had 4 fire arrows from my adventures and my mage failed to memorize any fire spells but burning hands and fireball

2nd level of Dragon's Eye - Long Sword of Confusion +2. In standard edition 25% chance of target getting confusion worked as killing blow for a troll if triggered on near death troll. I'm not sure if this works the same in Enhanced Edition.

The joys of randomly dropped fire based weapons. There are multiple swords with fire damage one may find early in the game, but as they are distributed randomly, oh well.

Apart from the various fire based potions you can find, Oswald sells 30 or more Flaming Oil in Kuldahar.

I just have my mage prep a few Agannazar's Scorchers when I'm going through troll heavy areas. With careful positioning, she can finish off 4-5 near-dead trolls with one spell.

Listen to the others, in DnD trolls have a regeneration rate as well as this cannot be killed unless hit with certain elements. Icewind Dale, being a DnD game, follows this rule.

You also get a flaming b4stard sword at the end of the previous chapter that can be used for killing them (though its random when the damage will get to kill them and may take a while). If you have this, put it on the best fighter. In prerp, its also worth noting tht a investment into b4stard swords knowing you will get this sword early on is also handy. (note Steam wil sensor this type of sword, so I apologise if the word isn't showing).

Trolls aren't that difficult to deal with and the early ones especially are easy to down, its only really later the Dorn's Deep snow Trolls that are a pain. Incontrast, a lot of things like salamanders are much harder, as they hav flame and frost auras that are constantly pounding you with elemental damage.

Also, if you have a script set to be offensive, note that none of the spell caster related scripts cause the mage to attack once the trolls are on the ground. As someone who uses scripts, it is a pain to watch a mage do nothing.

Note, however.... There is basically really only two locations with trolls in overall (Dragons eye and Dorn's Deep), if memory serve me correct the two expansions (Heart of Winter and Trials of the Task master) do not have them in. So its not worth fully investing into the anti-troll builds too far.

Also another tip, when using the scorcher spell with a mage, postion the mage as best you can. The scorcher is able to get more then one enemy, so make the mage wait until several trolls are on the ground. Then line them up quickly and try to burn two or more of them.

[D'amarr from Darshiva]

Melf's Minute Meteors is another spell to finish off Trolls once they are lying on the ground.

And of course, Fireball, if you have enough slots and are careful to move your party out of the radius.
