Trolls may be the most dangerous type of creature to fight in the entire game, as they are able to inflict terrible damage on even a blockhead wearing a full suit of [[Iron Ingot|iron]] [[armor]]. It also takes at least [[Creature Hit Chart|a dozen blows]] from [[Sword|the most powerful weapon]] available to bring one down, giving a troll ample time to retaliate. Even [[Copper Bow & Arrows|a ranged weapon]] used from a separated platform is little help, as trolls can climb as well as blockheads and respond to interlopers at bow range.
Trolls are one of the most dangerous creatures to fight in the game, as they are able to inflict a large amount of damage on blockheads wearing a full suit of [[armor]]. It also takes [[Creature Hit Chart|multiple blows]] from [[Sword|the most powerful weapon]] available to bring one down, giving a troll ample time to retaliate. Even a ranged weapon used from a separated platform is little help, as trolls can climb as well as blockheads and respond to interlopers at bow range.


Yet with preparation, planning, and some quick responses, cave trolls can be defeated and their lairs looted in safety (e.g. by placing blocks strategically so that a blockhead can be beside the troll with a one-block gap formation and so can attack the troll without it attacking back). Just be ready to heal up afterward should things go wrong.

A cave troll can be drowned in a completely filled, sealed room. They will still drop a piece of ice armor.

The golden chest has improved chances of spawning with ingots and gems, and almost no chance of spawning with any sort of coins. The trade portal can be removed and placed elsewhere, as can the ice torches. The trade portal spawned with a cave troll has variable price offsets from global and local prices.
