Torch is great to fight greydwarfs early on.
Stagbreaker is great in dungeons. Use it before opening any door.
Try to shoot skeleton with bow and use club in close combat. When skelly attacks you just move back and try to hit it with club again.

a similar trick I've used on many an ocasion is to duck into a crypt entrance, one of hte ones that is a stone "hall way" on the surface rather than the hill or pit style entrances, and just beat on the troll from there. plink it with arrows or use my Atgrier which has reach to kill it. The Troll can't damage the structure and thus can not get to you. I keep suitable crypt entrances marked on my map so I know where to go during a Troll encounter. If there isn't a crypt handy you can just kite the Troll around trees. Run in short bursts so your stamina can recharge, shoot some arrows, sprint away again and repeat until it's dead.

Yep.Works too. But running around tower from angry troll just hilarious .
