oddly enough.. even with a beginner bow they literally take maybe.. 10 fire arrows.. I came across one early on... I was still in troll armor.. I panicked thinking I was so dead.. killed it.. and my ship had only suffered like 25% durability loss.. I was completely underwhelmed.. now.. with the spine tap.. LMAO.. 3 shots and it's dead.. they need more.. or bigger ones.. something more challenging for sure. they seem scary and the idea is scary but once you kill one you are like "that's it"?
