I easily kited 2 trolls at once with no armor and crude bow and just wooden arrows. Just takes some practice and maybe 5 minutes to kill 2 at once if no stats/gear.

Actually in the meadow there are no obstacles for him to have to go around to slow him down. I found much greater success staying in the forest and running through trees too close together for him to follow or off vertical jumps he will not walk, which give me time to regain stamina.
