I played the game through twice fully and found Bonemass to be the most difficult, even more so after one of the updates where arrows ended up doing less damage to him. Also, getting hunted by the wolves when that event is triggered is usually my "oh crap" moment. Learning how to use food and potions more effectively earlier probably would have helped a little bit, but just a little. Berserker trophies can take awhile to get because the drop percentage is really low...like 5% chance of happening. Hunting Sea Serpents...I generally don't go after them but it does seem like I run into them in the ocean biome when its at night and raining more often than any other time. I actually felt like fighting the 1st, 4th and 5th boss were fun than the 2nd and 3rd bosses. 3rd boss took alot of prep time as I decided that re-landscaping the swamp area by hand was the only way I was going to kill him solo - and it worked.

You can post up in a tree with 2 finewood bows or a Draugr Fang and workbench and just let loose with around 150 frost arrows if Bonemass gives you trouble.

Interesting. I don't really go up into the mountains to get the resources to build frost arrows until after killing Bonemass. I have gone up there to get obsidian but not long enough to fight a Drake for it's resource. Hmm, I haven't played in several weeks, my guess is that you can make the potion to keep from freezing earlier than I'm thinking atm. I'll check it out next play-through, thx!
