If you think the basilisk is bad now, remember that before patch 1.05 curses could stack. So you'd get half health, then if you got cursed again before curing it you'd get 1/4 health, and finally 1/8 health. It was almost impossible to get back to place to get it cured.

As a long time player of Skyrim aka having close to 5000 hours I didn't even know people had problems with them. My main character is a greatsword heavy armor warrior with sword and shield as a back up with a focus on those and smithing and enchanting and I like I think you were while not supposed to but rather assumed most would cleared a few dungeons and leveled a bit(around 15) before going to Hrothgar and I just tanked his hits and killed the troll in a couple hits. The real absurd enemy is giants because they are IMO the most dangerous enemy besides dragons as even my ridiculously high level character(currently at level 351) can get stagggered by their attacks and even though I can one shot them they have a nasty habit of club slamming you from behind and they are arguably the deadliest enemy before lvl 28 if I remember correctly that when their scaling peaks and stops at level 32ish.

[@brettmaloney1411]

Resident evil and silent hill teach you that not every enemy needs to be killed

[@naomigreen9749]

​​@@joshshore27Same. I usually like to play a stealthy archer but I usually focus on a bunch of sidequests before climbing the mountain to the point I once didn't realise that was an early part of the main quest line. I usually play the main quest line up until the dragon and then basically do a whole bunch of sidequests before going to see the Greybeards. I was genuinely surprised when the frost troll was on the list, I had no idea other players found it frustrating. I do find giants insanely difficult especially but I think they are not on the list because they are usually peaceful and generally don't attack unless you attack them and one of their mammoths first. Which means you don't have to take them on until you're ready.

[@thebonesaw..4634]

Basilisks - One very effective strategy for dealing with the basilisk's curse is to poison yourself before fighting them. You can only have one negative effect at a time, if you fill up your meter up with poison, you become immune to any other negative effect, including curse. After leaving the area with the basilisks, you then cure your poison effect and you're back to full health, with no HP loss from curse. It does make your fight slightly harder with them, but they're ridiculously easy to kill, so it isn't that much harder. The important thing is to avoid getting cursed, which is a pain in the ass to remove. Poison, on the other hand, is relatively easy to remedy with Purple Moss Clump.

My favorite poke ball because you don’t have to worry about Pokémon fleeing if you catch it first try and you don’t have to worry about finding Pokémon you’ve caught at the right level if you don’t have false swipe yet so you don’t automatically one hit lower enemies when filing out your Pokédex in later game. I hate it when I wittle a Pokémon I want to catch’s health down but not low enough to make getting it to stay in a pokeball easily but too low that it I hit it again I know it’s faint and then I can’t catch it. :/ that’s super frustrating lol

If you primarily use magic, the frost troll isn’t super problematic depending on what you’re using. There’s firebolt if you’re low level. Conjuration gets you flame atronachs. Or once you get good at it, could just hit one with a calm spell repeatedly and sneak attack them with illusion.

[@mastervision5902]

The angry sun is just a throwback to the Phantos from Super Mario Bros. 2, which acted in a similar way and was difficult to kill as well. Also, think about it: having the sun look angry and trying to kill you is basically a metaphor for how the sun seems in a desert. Of all the enemies Mario faces in a desert, it makes sense that the sun would be the most dangerous, because the sun is usually the biggest threat in a desert.

Here's an addition if you'd like to make another follow-up: any enemy in Ninja Gaiden 2 that throws incendiary shuriken. Their aim is usually pretty darn good and if it hits, it sticks and you are guaranteed to lose a lot of health and have your guard broken.

Yaniv Avizrats got stuck in a death loop once in a small building with a named raider group inside. Cleared them out, got the loot (including a star cap or two), only to be screwed by autosave. Open the door to an absolute *fuck ton* of cazadors, which of course was instadeath. Game auto saves when you enter or leave the open world, so of course it auto saves on me coming out of the building and reloads to said fuckton of cazadors. Last manual save was long before....so sad. Also a moment of silence for all those lost going the desert way to the strip instead of past the NCR sharecroppers only to be massacred by cazadors and blind deathclaws.

[@koopaking6148]

It's fine if it's just one cazador... But it's almost never just one... There's always like 5 or 6 of them... And even if you have a lv 10 endurance and are a relatively high level they are still a pain to fight...

[@claretravels783]

After many, many, m a n y hours of Skyrim, I reckon the best strategy for that goddamn frost troll is: sprint past it and just keep on sprinting. Doesn't matter if Lydia gets left behind! You just run!

[@yuki_foxsoul8425]

Protip for the frost troll: Run and go inside the castle, when it chases after you, it will follow you in the castle, then let the wizards deal with it.

[@xwing2417]

The Krosis dragon priest is my pick. Seems like everytime I meet him I'm unprepared. That staff of fireballs is brutal, when combined with the kiting and ice shield he uses.

[@Hoopybunnie]

I love the Frost Troll at High Hrothgar. Sorry Luke. It's an enemy at the early game that you can just whale on for ages without killing, then run away wait for it to heal itself, come back and whale on it some more. It's a brilliant way to level up some skills that you don't use so much.

Banshees from Mass Effect. You’re going about your life, being Commander freaking Shepard and then the screaming starts. Bladders empty, weapon syncs empty, and there’s still screaming.

[@HeinerGunnar]

God I played a Vanguard. You can't imagine how often the literally fucked me to death on Insanity with their insta-kill grab (for anyone not knowledgable in ME lore, Banshees are made from a species that mates through something called "mindmeld", but the specific members of that species that become Banshees have a genetic defect that makes the nervous system overloaded of anyone they "meld" with, killing them. That's what Banshees do when they grab you)

Also, how about Metal Slimes? You get so happy when you see them, but then they run away before you can kill them. Which then is annoying because you KNOW they have much higher experience values then any other enemy in the area that particular type of metal slime appears. Sometimes including any bosses in that area.

Pieces of advice for future abusive frost troll - they regenerate health while don't take damage. Fire dealt additional damage over time. THAT''s why fire is effective against them. You start with Flames spell so one hand burn furry while other smack his head. Fire enchanted bow if archer i think is only solution. btw, if you are unable to stagger enemy in Skyrim don't blame game mechanic. It's like blaming controls in Dark Souls

[@wickedwitt04]

You could tell from his first sentence that he had a legitimate disdain for the Frost Troll. He was not playing it up, he was having genuine emotions from the frustration that enemy had given him. My first play through of Skyrim was similar as I wanted to do magic and at about Lv 5 on Master difficulty you are a wet noodle. It took hours of creativity and trial to finally beat that stupid troll...only to get a bowl of troll fat.

Flying Phoenix Cat Persona Q 2 Third story boss does that. What is worse is that you have to have every element ( 8 ) attack by HP cost & magic type can help. Because also the boss will randomly stop you from using an ability. This ability can't be guarded against & it hits everyone. ALSO that if you mess up or can't do said attack needed. You have to start all over. Boss fully restored HP.

[@sugar-high_kitsune]

Know what's *worse* than invincibility? RESISTANCE. Hear me out. With invincibility/immunity, you're just like "Oh, ok, not gonna do that." or "Ok, I'll leave and come back when I *can* do something to it." but RESISTANCE. You're doing damage to it. You can see it! But you're not doing ENOUGH. And you're just stubborn enough to be like "ARGH. I CAN DO THIS. I WILL BEAT THIS ENEMY." But it takes *so* long, because it's a resistant trash stuffer.

[@2dtrash19]

An enemy I personally hate is the Fury from Devil May Cry 5. It is impossible to hit for 90% of the time it is on-screen, can disappear and attack you at any point, stands around doing nothing for seconds at a time but your attacks will still go Right Through It, and the only workaround I've found is playing Dante in Royalguard and just waiting for its attacks to block, but even then that's hard because they attack fast literally from out of nowhere.

[@apdsqueaky]

Came looking for this comment. I have really poor sense of direction and always get lost in the caves, and getting caught up in a battle every 3 steps doesn't help, especially when I haven't gotten a pokemon that's super effective against them yet. Any long, windy trek where poison Pokemon can just mob you is bad, but at least the water routes are pretty linear and are more of an endurance fest than the much earlier caves.

The frost troll actually goes down rather esay if you invest a lot of points in sneak, since there is a perk that gives you a boost to stealth damage with bows, or crossbows if you have DG. A poison tipped arrow/crossbow bolt while sneaking with the deadly aim perk will often give you an advantage over the troll. (I apologize if my english is bad)

[@BaranZenon]

Bloodsuckers from STALKER series. The first one in SoC scared me so much, that when I discovered that there is a place called "Bloodsucker VILLAGE" I was all "NOPE - I am not going there". The thing with the first encounter with this sneaky leach is that it is almost invisible, so in the darkness it is realy hard to see it, so at my first go I freaked out, started shooting at everything that moved (this game has a nice physics engine for random objects) not even knowing what the hell is attacking me. It scared me so much, that everytime I meet those I feel anxious fighting them (and those are not even that strong enemies).

While talking to someone, a frost dragon landed beside us, this was my first encounter with one and i started freaking out as they are super strong compared to normal dragons. If my efforts to try and escape the dragon, i ended up running into the frost troll. for a while they were taking care of each other but i eventually died..... multiple times.

From my very first play through, nearly 11 years ago, I've always used the Frost Troll as the measuring stick for how quickly I'm progressing through Skyrim. To me, the opening is when you simply can't survive an encounter with one, the early game is up until you can reliably kill them and the mid game is by the time they are as easy to kill as skeevers.

[@trychydts]

As for the Frost troll, I have not really noticed it. They way I play Elder scroll games is in the early part of the game, I am furiosly focusing on one or two key abilities, while doing some side quests etc., so by the time I get to the main quest, I am pretty much prepared for routine enemies. What annoys me in that paticular path is that cannonically there is a guy who goes up regularly to deliver some dried nuts -- and this winding, not branching path is littered with dangerous enemies. How does he do it? Trolls are ridiculously tough, that's for sure, though.

[@drewlovelyhell4892]

In general, Frost Trolls aren't that tough to beat. It's just when you are less than level twenty, your character is relatively vulnerable and doesn't deal damage very quickly. You can always just run past that first one! I had a similar problem with the first Borderlands boss; Bonehead. He had a relatively good shield, and while you take cover to reload, it regenerates, making it really tough to do lasting damage. But just like the Frost Troll, he's a push-over once you get better weapons. When I replay Skyrim, I always do some grinding before I do the storyline. My priority is going to Halted Stream Mine and getting the Transmute spellbook and lots of Iron ore, and leveling up my Smithing and enchanting by crafting dozens of enchanted necklaces and selling them.
