    Nice touch :)
    (I think I suggested this last telethon - more varied/scaling difficulty of random encounters.. maybe someone with a higher adventurer level will find a dragon or something!)

    Nice but have to ask when you went inot the scene what was it like?

    developers PLEASE tell me this is going to be scaled to the Player who initiated it.

    As for my scaled wish I know that if it is it is going to have to be something pretty complex otherwise it will get abused.
    (what do I mean by this - a mid level player starts the party with a Power nut, and goes out and initiates these instances and then just rolls over them)

    Why would a high level player want to kill lesser trolls?

    It was a snowy mountainous scene, with a bridge (and 2 trolls - 1 at each end of the bridge) - yellow to me @ adventurer level 81. There were some polar bears also.

    Looks like a copy of the Vertas Pass troll.

    The loot and exp. seems balanced with the effort expended - I don't see anyone farming this being more profitable than doing other activities.

    How about a nice troll needing our help but if you say the wrong thing he may get very very mad at you. ;)

    I ve tried the encounter and I honestly can't see how someone could abuse this, the rewards and XP for killing the Trolls is not excessive compared to the time it takes to kill them. It's actually more productive XP and loot wise to farm some of the usual places (like crags or deep ravenswood). I like this encounter, it adds variety and I hope they will add more encounter types.The scene where the encounter takes place is pretty cool also, I've encountered a polar bear and crossed a river of ice. Great work devs!!!
