    I'm ok with a troll falling on me and doing damage even killing me, but over 600 damage is ridiculous and leads me to avoid risking my xp for what piddly amount of xp and loot trolls drop. 600+ damage = to much.

    Some of us are starting to have the same mentality with dragons and phoenixes after doing them last few weeks. Reward greatly less than Time put in. Only reason we run them at this point is to help friends who want to get the phoenix quest done and even then deaths turn many players away from doing so again.

    I would imagine this will change once loot tables are properly implemented... until then there are a lot of creatures in the game that are hard to justify the time and risk to kill. Unfortunately, until loot is put in place, its also hard to judge if the damage or the risk should be tweaked or not.

    Yep, and sorry for the lack of meaningful rewards. The person who largely does that loot creation has been swamped crafting work. He'll get caught up soon and I expect we'll start spreading that work out a bit as well.

    I died by falling troll too. But I find it funny that there is a little risk. While I know he could kill me when he falls on me, I have adapted my tactics as I always finish him on max range.

    I didn't even know that you could take damage and even die from a dying creatures falling on you. I love it!

    I like the concept that a 10 ton troll falling on you would be an immediate death. But, would be nice if we had just a little chance to roll out of the way or avoid the fall. Seems like the falling troll dmg is just an area affect around the troll instead of where it lands.
