Instead of blocking, learn to roll. The i-frames in rolling is quite long.

Troll attacks, simply roll into it then secondary attack then jab twice and roll away. Watch your stamina and you're all good.

Trolls are easy. Getting the copper on the outside of the black forest is easy. Getting the surtling cores so you can build the smelter to make any of that was the actual problem.
