troll rocks

did you know you can punch back the rocks the trolls throw at you? if you land a hit, it does quite a lot of damage. I've done up to 1400 damage from one returned rock. I'm not sure if your stats factor in to this, but I had maxed stats when I did it. You also get skill points for it. I don't know if you can return the little rocks sent in volleys of 3, but the big rocks that come one by one can be hit back. If you don't want to scar your character, make sure you have physical shield on, it's very easy to miss the timing.

Worth the trouble? Probably not. Just a fun thing to do for a change. It will also keep the moron merchants punching it alive as the troll will only attack you.

cheers

heh
I just used the crossbow on it.

Teased it out when I got in its line of sight and it arose, using the timing to pull back the arrow for a good hit.

Instead of using Physcial Shield, try a bit of slow time...makes it SO much easier to smack rocks back at them nasty trolls

It is definately worth the trouble if someone decides to be a fighter without offensive spells, especially if your bow does no damage at all.

haha, that's a great idea. slow time. why didn't i think of that? lol. that really would make it easier.

also, did you know you can pull and release arrows while rolling? or is that common knowledge already?

Accuracy stats affect the rock damage btw
