Hello!!
I’m playing solo and last nigth I tried to kill Giant Crocodile. I’m level 53 and went with Cruaidh the Crusher both using Flawless Hardened Steel Greatsword. I killed the crocodile in about 5-7 minutes but I’ve seen some videos and seem harder for them, some 2-3 players a lot of time. Is this normal? I don’t use any mod. How can I see boss real health points? I only see red bar.
Thanks for your help
Hosnestly i can solo it in about 5 mins. Some people just stink
But same goes for most world bosses
Didn’t you tweak Game Settings? There are settings for your damage to NPCs and for the damage you get from NPCs. It’s 1.0 in vanilla game but can be increased or reduced.
I’ve only increased Harvest Amount Multiplier to 2.5 so I can have resources faster
Then it must be a good Thrall and good gear you both had. In fact this croc is not too tough, but not “just a piece of cake”.
It’s so strange because I don’t have any epic weapons or armor and only level 53. I will reset game settings just in case
Reset to default and no changes with crocodile. He kills me with 2 hits but my thrall tanks and I can hit him and retreat easily.
Thralls have a lot of hitpoints, especially the T4 ones.
Cruaidh the Crusher has 2970 hitpoints, it’s amazing!!
That’s not even much compared to some thralls… the higher level ones have a lot more health. That may be (or seem) unbalanced, but at least in singleplayer you can always make yourself admin and tweak the combat settings to your liking.
Harden Great sword base Damage is 49 with 13.5% armor penetration. I wonder your stats.
These are my stats
Strength: 34
Agilty: 6
Vitality: 32
Accuracy: 5
Grit: 12
Encumbrance: 11 (+7)
Survival: 5
My flawless sword base damage is 53 (upgraded). My thrall use the same sword
The difficulty may also depend upon what setting you chose when you started the game Eg decadent, civilised or barbaric.
That’s true. I’m not sure which level I’ve chosen, civilised (normal) I think. Where can I see the option chosen?
The Giant Crocodile has 17415 health. Thats about a mid level world legendary boss. The dragons have 40998 health just as a comparison. Flawless Hardened Steel Greatsword is not such a bad weapon, and being level 53 with some points in strength really helps.
The key is strength, good weapon, and knowing how to assess the bosses attacks so you can fight efficiently.
When I first started playing (my first run through) I was hopeless at fighting bosses. I am doing my second run through now and I am finding it really easy. So I guess some people are just better at fighting than others, and some it takes them a bit longer to learn.
Also the croc is fairly easy to fight. Try the white tiger 
It has 29760 health and the bleed affect sux ■■■. Still do-able pre lv60 but I find that one a lot harder due to bleed.
in official server there is no difficulty
I read at conan wiki crocodile king has 76230 hitpoints. If he has “only” 17415 hitpoints it’s a lot easier for me beating him
By the way there are two different types of Boss Crocks looking alike: ones in the wild and one in the Gallaman Tomb. The last one is way weaker than those in the wild.
I’ve killed both of them. The last I killed is in a lake near the begining zone.
Then you’re just too mighty 
Be proud of this!
