Troll enemy line

The Troll, Cave Troll, and Brutal Troll are species of monsters found in Golden Sun and Golden Sun: The Lost Age. These monsters, resembling burly humanlike monsters wielding axes, are palette swapped variants of each other that have differing levels of power and defense and are fought at different locations in the games.

Troll
A Troll is a tan variant. Statistically, this monster has 101 HP, which recovers 10 HP per turn, 73 Attack, 16 Defense, 14 Agility, and 1 Luck. In terms of resistance, it has a Jupiter Resistance rating of 72, a Venus and Mercury Resistance rating of 48 each, and a Mars Resistance rating of 25, and in regards to its abilities it uses its available Venus-based attacks with a Venus power rating of 100.

In battle, the Troll uses these battle commands:


 * Attack: This is this monster's standard physical attack.


 * Brute Force: This is a Monster Skill where the monster suffuses itself with an aura of gold energy and charges into a single Adept, dealing a Venus-based attack.

Felling a Troll yields 30 EXP, 34 coins and there is a chance the monster will randomly drop a Nut. If it is felled by the attack effect of an offensive Mars Djinni, its rewards increase to 39 EXP and 44 coins.
