Nah. Just need a 2d6 damage bonus (avg 7), troll maul (2d8, avg. 9), Crush 4 (4d4, avg. 10), and Bludgeon 4; range 12-48, average 30. Hardly unusual for a great troll or smallish giant, and nowhere near the outlandish or heroic range.

As for 350% Horali Swordsmen, remember this: according to Da Roolz, one cannot advance past 75% in any skill which increases by experience except by experience checks. You'd have lots of attrition in the ranks, even with sorcerous resurrection, as you go up in skill.
