There are some afflicted groups in the undercity that make me bite my pillow like a rabid dog.

I'd say mursaat mesmer is one of the most annoying monster. power spike and energy surge >.<
I haven't been back to cap stuff in ice floe since nightfall though, not sure how much better heros can handle the mursaats

The boss with shatterstone in explorable eternal grov did about 300 dmg to my necro allie, 170 to me, being a warrior.

Hmmm the monk boss that has healers boon took me a while, then i just took 2 wars, 2 dervish, and an enchant ripping necro (hero/hench) and pwned him.

Some ranger boss during a quest in the jade sea, i think you have to get his skull, can really own if your not prepared.

White Mantle Knights. Pound for pound, they've given me more grief at level sixteen than most monsters can at level twenty-eight.

You people seem to have some real problems with PvE. The only things from this whole thread that I can agree with are Avicara Fierce (Ignite up, Dual Shot in 3) and Mungri Magicbox, and even then he was simply a matter of taking out all the other groups in the area so that my henchies had enough time to beat down the unnamed Dredge Gardener and then him (I was monking).

1st. Shiro'ken Elementalist
2nd. Jade bro knights
3rd. Insects, They all annoy me - the Sound effects, the stupidly large amounts of rangers, the overuse of Posion

And the prizes for narrowest beam of annoyance - Dying nightmares

Viruzzz · Jan 28, 2007, 05:48 PM // 17:48

any kind of elementalist boss ususally

i give vote to all sorts of Life Seeds in Prophecies that pop out of earth everywhere and start healing whatever you re fighting, nasty little buggers

Caster bosses are easy to shut down. I remain puzzled by people who had trouble with Mursaat monk bosses, considering that all it took to beat them was Concussion Shot or Diversion.

Avicara Fierce are defeated by terrain and "Shields Up!". You'll still take some damage from their Ignites, but at least your henchies won't get spiked down by duals.

I liked the Afflicted and Jade Brotherhood simply because of the steep learning/difficulty curve they put on Factions. A lot of players got their faces raped off by these abnormally difficult enemies because they simply weren't prepared to face that kind of opposition so early in the game.

I personally hate those torment monsters, the one that uses deep freeze. a couple of em can rape my henchie team. Also, jade brother hood knights aren't that kind either.

Exluding infused armor it has to be mursaat and jade, with infused armor its no doubt wurms (all types) they always go back down and i hate them for it

Domino · Jan 29, 2007, 01:03 AM // 01:03

definitely Glint

Ugh, I remeber her being a bitch to kill.

When the Roaring Embers, Fire Dijinns and a couple Saphirre Dijinns get together, it's a 50/50 chance it's a 2 sec party wipe....with heroes at least.

GloryFox · Jan 29, 2007, 05:05 AM // 05:05

Dream Riders followed by waves of Mindblade Spectres

To this day even with the best party builds I still run form these things.

(hauntings from the past when UW was still considered ELITE)

Most things have in GW have effective antidotes.
Ever had a Echo-Shatter Hex mesmer in your party?

(oh, sorry forgot that, no one uses mesmers in PvE

)

I still regard the lvl 20 Jade Brotherhood as the strongest monster teambuild. If they had been cranked up to lvl 28 in an elite area, they would have been pretty mean.

What about the Dredge hordes in urgoz, wave after wave, these guys can easily wipe any good team out

They do a bit of "cheating" (refering to OP). They are high level, insanely many and are backed up by environmental effects. A similar single group at lvl 20 would not been much of a threat.
