Strategy

Cave Troll has high damage dealing but shieldable and dodgeable attacks.

Fighter, Cleric or Ranger (with a Pavise) are recommended as blocking Cave Troll's attacks are more consistent.

  • Ground Shake:
    • Press 'X' and run away when Cave Troll holds the mace with two hands. You want to put around 3-4 meters of distance.
  • Regular Attack:
    • Block with a shield
    • Dodge by crouching under
    • Or if you are not close simply walk away
  • Low Swing:
    • Block with a shield 90 degrees to the left
    • Jump to left over its mace, it is difficult to identify the attack from high swing
  • High Swing:
    • Block with a shield 90 degrees to the left
    • Crouch down and look down to dodge, it is difficult to identify the attack from high swing
  • Roar:
    • Prepare for Low or High Swing
    • If you are Ranger there is usually enough time to equip a Pavise for shield block.
