Hmm, maybe you need to try a new strategy? Get some help or take on smaller foes until you're strong enough.

A giant animated bronze statue. Very strong enemy.

lol, oh, this is my first quest. I thought it was just another type of cyclops (yellow C).

Even cyclops are difficult for a first quest. Generally, wandering around a random cave, killing the basic creatures, then running away when the big boss shows his head is my standard way of staying alive.

Usually though I am not so concerned, and play as you are. Way more fun to have crazy lopsided fights that sometimes, somehow, work out for you.

Since he already asked what a bronze collossus is, what is an etin?  I could be a bit off with the name, but I think that's it.

Ettins are two-headed giants. They're bigger (size 12) than minotaurs (size 9) but smaller than giants and cyclopes (size 16).

For reference, humans/elves are size 7 and dwarves are size 6.

I wish I had the patience for that. That aside, I have enough trouble finding solitary zombies.

Practice on animals. Mules until you are OK at wrestling, then horses... then go out into the wilderness and do it to larger animals (warthogs seem to work well).

Oh, it is really funny that the guards just ignore you while you are killing their horses.
