Actually, Trolls are the creation of the Daedric Prince of Hircine. Sheogorath and Hircine had a bet on who could make the most fearsome and strongest creature ever. You know, just some muscle flexing between two daedric princes. And in the end, wanted them to battle each other. End of the tale: While Hircine send his Troll, Sheogorath just sent in a small bird, always landing on the Troll's head. Causing the Troll to repeatedly smack his own head, until it died from it. So yeah... Even among Daedra, Sheogorath is a tricky motherfucker. Edit: Like many of you already have hinted, it's a deadroth, not a troll. I'm apologizing for making this mistake.

I want to mention something else about the Grahl. A well-known feature of trolls is their ability to regenerate health at an impressive rate. However, they are weak to fire, suggesting they can't heal burns as well. Grahls can heal themselves similarly, but they were unable to use that ability while taking fire damage, giving even more credence to their relationship with the troll.

Trolls are like Ents, but only a mockery of them.

[@velosamurai2669]

Last time i was this early Nate was still doing his intro.

[@hundragant]

His intro is always around a minute long. I now start his videos 1 minute in.

[@josiahneese348]

In “A Dance in Fire,” which I believe is nonfiction in TESV, has a wild hunt take place in 3E 397. I just thought I should mention that.

[@lemonZzzzs]

I think this should've been mentioned in the video... pretty sure it appeared in more than one of the elder scrolls games... A fairly well written rip-off of the Heart of Darkness/Apocalypse Now... or, given the tensions with the Khajiit being prominent... Apocalypse Meow? >:P EDIT: by "pretty sure it appeared in more than one of the elder scrolls game" I mean I am sure I read the whole thing in Morrowind.

[@andasfs]

I have always wondered where you get the footage of other parts of Tamriel, lol, do Beyond Skyrim modders give you early access to their projects? Or is it something else? Someone plz let me know xd

[@Gregamite]

Good point

[@dartoney]

Some are from ESO, and the others are from mods like valenwood, blackmarsh, etc.

[@metetural9140]

I'm pretty sure he's just got early access

[@nicholasspecialmusic]

I sneaked past my very first troll yesterday. First time play thru, on my way to the greybeards and was no match for this guy. So Lydia and I sneaked past after about 4 tries. It worked! I'm sure I'll go back and beat him up someday.

[@RoastGorilla439]

wasn't the last wild hunt during the 5 year war in the third era?

[@kerosenekinks]

near solitude, if your arrow, the lighthouse and the dainty sload are in a tirangle formation, you can go underwater and find a rabbit running at the bottom. its been there for me on all of my playthroughs. If you follow it all the way till it disappears, it will lead you to being between the brinehammer and the pale imperial camp. Its not so bad for picking up barnacles, clams, fish and pearls.

They’re op at low levels that’s one😂

glad you covered this topic, I love the EasterEgg related to the Goats crossing the bridge

[@treybrzezowski3259]

6:50, gonna point it out for anyone confused as to what the monster on screen is, that is a Leshen from the Witcher series, and while I have never played the Witcher, the Leshen was part of a Crossover between the Witcher and Monster Hunter World halfway through last year... and it was a painis in the anus.

[@xSHURRAx]

Thank you! I was going to ask about that if no one brought it up! That would be a pretty neat follower, though. Or a badass miniboss in Skyrim.

[@treybrzezowski3259]

@@xSHURRAx Yeah, they are pretty similar to spriggans actually, just a lot bigger, a lot tougher and a lot more active in defending their turf.

Dear Nate: Thank you for your service, during these trying times. (not joking) Now, please sell me 4 Armored Trolls -- the like Dawnguards train, for home security against looters and what not. (still not joking)

Poor Lydia didn’t stand a chance against the high hrothgar troll I sent her to distract.

[@MinktheStorykeeper]

"Distract"

[@alexbenavidez4500]

6:05 *Immersive Armours Configuration Has Finished* I have no clue what mods you're even running anymore, and how you're freezing gameplay to set up and record all these incredible environmental shots lmao

[@Aethuviel]

My Dunmer Dragonborn Qualin was exploring the Velothi mountains in search of Kagrenzel, when two Frost trolls (there was actually a third but it huddled away) attacked and nearly killed his wife, Jenassa. He's now made it his mission to kill every troll he sees. (Seriously, Jenassa ACTUALLY died that time, but I console commanded her back to life, and wrote it into their story.)

[@General_Griffin]

7:07 Assuming this Bosmer-Troll kin theory is the answer to the Troll's origins, after each "Wild Hunt" event, how does the sole survivor reproduce/duplicate?

[@waddle_plop]

General Griffin My thoughts exactly!

[@Vermula]

Brute force?

[@CorraThaxton]

Raid a small village/ nearby homestead maybe?

[@jazzingpanda3190]

Trolls that big would have been cool as hell man. Finding a giant sized one somewhere in the wilderness guarding its den would be amazing

[@BadCr0w]

Trolls in Norse mythology were pretty much forces of Nature, so them springing out of the ground may not be that far fetched tbh if they follow Norse mythology.

[@robertdowns9534]

I remember playing ESO and while I travelled through Vallenwood I met a khjit being attacked by a wood elf. The wood elf said the khjit had to die for eating a postgraduate of something called The Green Pact. It turned out that I had to be the judge of the situation. Pretty cool.

[@Lunarloverboy]

11:19 *grammatical 😂 grammarical isn’t a word my friend

[@imnullandvoid1224]

They do have those pointed ears like the Mer. As do the Spriggans, Centaurs and small creatures like Skeever. I mean I like the idea of all those creatures being descendants of the Wood Elves
