If you're doing High Hrothgar ASAP, yeah he's a bit beefy.

A couple things I've done: have Lydia tank; run by it like the brave hero you will one day be; hop onto a ledge it can't get to (trolls can't jump...other than when they stomp about like children having a tantrum) and turn it into a pincushion.

Or just level some more and come back.

the troll is there to determine if you are worthy to meet the gray beards and everything that comes after usually a little leveling helps... if there was some way you could fight as a different creature with enhanced strengh and regeneration that is effected by the phases of the moons.....

That ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ is there to make sure you don't progress too fast too early early. First time I played, what I did was hit him with Fus, then bolt past him and run like hell all the way to the Greybeards. I figured they could have handled him, but he didn't follow me that far.

Hmm, first of all to prevent any useless advice. When I walked by an earlier troll... I think I kinda.. might've stabbed Lydia so no help from there. But for now I'm working on levelling up, and sshadowthekid, what's your mod so I can use it if my levelling up doesn't work?

Go up the rocks on the left hand side of the passage - blast the troll with Flames when it gets near, then arrows. When health is down edge forward and hit with melee, using Flames to finish off. Try to stay on the rocks if possible.
Either that or sneak around, but you'll have the same again when you go back down.

Down from High Hrothgar? Hell no. You can fast travel up and down as much as you want. There's no reason to make the trip by foot multiple times.

Suppose I should have mentioned - I'm so used to not fast travelling - and I walk everywhere just to soak in the atmosphere - the texture mods I guess.
Sorry, for assuming something you may not do.
What about a torch arrow mod - useful in many instances?

was thinking i may be missing something on the way down the steps

dark caves perhaps just a shame i am too slow with bows(always have been) so i stick to melee /magic and wearable lanterns:steamhappy:

Try to lvl up a bit before meet graybeards, maybe some dark brotherhood. Thats what i did when i started a new game, dont rush cause is worst.

Go up or something were it can't reach you and arrow it to death XD
Fabea Nov 28, 2015 @ 4:59pm 
I went up at a very early stage, it took several tries but I eventually slipped past him by going the long way around the rocks before he noticed me. That doesn't work often because he is also a very alert son of a ♥♥♥♥♥ :steamsad:

I remember one time I inched around it on the rocks to the left there JUST to avoid the frost troll.

Go to Riften, help Shadr clear his debt then take the free stables horse and then use it to ride passed the troll and other baddies.
