Troll found in Bleak Falls Barrow at level 2?

[☧ Voievod]

I found a Troll (cave) in BFB when I was level 2 or 3.

I remember a draugr instead of a troll.

[Vlad 254]

hmm, and I thought it was level based. Something like level 18ish and since the last year or so I always go there before Whiterun so I never end up seeing the troll.

[HazakTheMad]

Could be random, but I have never encountered one there, so I don't really know.

mods question mark?

In certain ice regions you can encounter an ice troll (which is much more dangerous than the normal troll) with lv 2, and in some dungeons you can found a lich casting fireball at you (which anhilate you nearly instants). Not every single monster is lv depending.
Think if you go for Mjolls quest in Riften at once you should found a dwemer zenturion with any lv. But could be that you found only spider workers on the way if this is lv adapted.

Yeah OP is specifically speaking to the path from Riverwood to Bleak Falls Barrow and is correct, there is a Troll there depending on your level. I used to see it all the time when I would wait to retrieve the Golden Claw until after I went to Whiterun. This is because it's based on or should be based on your level. Ever since I began grabbing the Claw before I go to Whiterun I have not seen one which has been well over a year.

But OP says there was a troll at level 2 or 3. Interesting.

Where the wolf usually spawns?

OP is talking about inside Bleak Falls, not on the way, though trolls can spawn in both locations. The walkway above the waterfall in bleak falls can spawn a troll, but it shouldn't be at lvl 2.

hmmm I see that now although I don't ever remember seeing a troll inside BFB but I could be wrong there.

And yes, as far as I've seen no one has seen one on the path at level 2 or 3, at least that I've ever seen myself or anyone else mention.

At the waterfall in BFB there is a troll encounter. He has an xmarker as an enable parent. That Xmarker is enabled by a trigger box at the start of the cave (Once you activate and pass through the gate)

However, the script for that trigger is set to lvl 18. Meaning, you should ONLY encounter that troll if the player is at or higher than lvl 18.

If the OP is using mods then either:
1) Something changed the enable parent for the troll encounter
2) Something changed the trigger box for the troll encounter
3) Something changed the variable Levelgatetrollfrost (Should be set to 18)

If the OP is NOT using mods, then something bugged.

Exactly what I thought especially regarding level 18. Until I saw this thread. Now I'm curios. Yes mods can change things so although I suspect they were involved here I'd love to hear what OP says.

I thought he was always there.

I find the troll INSIDE BFB, when you go down after you loot the chest? you go down close to the waterfall.

It definitely should not spawn at that level and has to be a mod behind it

Don't count bugs out especially without USSEP

Yes, but I don't have any mods that change creature spawns that I know of.

[SpeedFreak1972]

something that alters the encounter levels or delevels the world perhaps (makes games harder)
