Anything Dwarven, not because they are nasty but because they are soo dull. Oh look dwarf with a bow, oh look dwarf with an axe, oh look dwarf with a wand, oh look dwarf in a hat, oh look dwarf riding on an animal, oh look dwarf with a hammer etc etc

Mavrik · Feb 15, 2006, 07:46 PM // 19:46

most Kryta area creatures... I can handle the mursaat in small doses as well as ice imps.

Groups of Titans... and them crumbling into other creatures... buggers.

labsenpai · Feb 15, 2006, 08:13 PM // 20:13

Agree on anything that pops-up or patrols.
Especially unpleasant when they pay you a visit on the Res shrine and won't leave till you have max DP...

PUGs are by and far the WORST monsters you'll ever run into. Some are nice and good. Others will just kill you on the spot.... Want to fail a mission in the most dramatic fashion possible? Most of the time, a PUG will be responsible.

Willa...plain and simple

Chuba · Feb 15, 2006, 10:30 PM // 22:30

Scarabs, Devourers and the Maguuma Spiders (that chittering sound

)

Cjlr · Feb 15, 2006, 10:51 PM // 22:51

Damn devourers. Every three frikkin meters in all of Ascalon has its own hive of devourers. And then in the shiverpeaks, you think, oh boy, no more devourers! But how wrong you are... they turn up again, and again, and again, and again...

Plus, I want to curse every time a titan spawns. I despise them. The last thing I want to deal with is some idiotic tripod growing a new buddy from his own corpse while I'm busy on his friend. I must confess, a good deal of my aggravation is because I sometimes forget about the spawn, but it's still annoying, damnit!

exodite · Feb 15, 2006, 11:57 PM // 23:57

one thing that never fails to kill me is a warrior who thinks he can take on the world agros 8 different mobs starts dying and runs back to the monk with the mobs and wants a heal or 6

Andy_M · Feb 16, 2006, 12:08 AM // 00:08

Monsters that appear throughout the game with only a slight name change and a different colour....Lazy programming at it's worst. Especially when they burrow out of the ground every 5 steps or so. At one point I thought I was playing one of the Japanese RPG's with random combat all the time.

Dentenko · Feb 16, 2006, 12:27 AM // 00:27

Anything that pops out of the ground or falls from a tree is annoying. Spiders, scorpions, AUGH! THEY JUST MAKE EVERYTHING SO FREAKIN LONG! I was going to chuck the computer out the window. Jeezus.

This is what they need for those GORE ENGINE GORE ENGINE bugs.

100 gold in the merchant. Repels all Stupid things that pop out of the ground and fall out of trees for 1/2 hour until you complete the quest. Anything that pops out is automatically killed.

lol.

Bugs and wind riders top my list.

Rockshot Devourers - I can typically deal with them, but on the times I don't want to and decide to run, I seem too aggro three more hordes while trying to get away from the original spawn. That, and when I finally am able to come back after shaking their aggro, they tend to hang around and guard that which I had originally intended to kill.

Scarabs (espically Jades) - Alone, they are just annoying... Too bad they travel in packs. Only creature I've ever seen use a Vamp Touch spike. My true loathing for these came to be while I was trying to complete the "Monk's Path".

Since there are staves and such of 'pruning' which deal +damage to plants, why the hell don't we have a mod of RAID or something similar?

Wind Riders (espically Storm Kin) - Pissed me off in Maguuma with their ability to REPEATEDLY interrupt anything with more than a 3/4 second cast, and finally made me loathe them when you apparently come across their breeding ground outside of Seeker's Passage. Why is it that these buggers have the tendency to bee-line it to your face from way out in East BumbleRED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GO when your hands are allready full with their buddies?

Avacaria Fierces - (Ignite Arrows + Dual Shot) X 8 = Why do I even bother?

Other things that get an honorable mention -

*Anything with STUPID amounts of knockdowns
*Anything with STUPID amounts of snaggs/slowdowns
*Anything that cycles a single spell between members of the group to make sure you can't do anything on your way to the afterlife (Shock, Meteor, Malestrom, Cry of Frustration, etc.)
*Anything that does more than 100 damage per NORMAL attack (Bladed Ataxes, this means you)
*Anything that can outheal a group of 8
*Anything that rezzes
*Anything that has enough armor to put Fort Knox to shame

Lichtenberg · Feb 16, 2006, 03:02 AM // 03:02

avicara/tengu
heretics
and anything with uber timed cry of frustration!

LifeInfusion · Feb 16, 2006, 03:22 AM // 03:22

Things with monster only skills because I cant cap them.

This includes:
Fingers of Chaos (Grasping Insanity)
Giant Stomp (Tundra Giants, Stone Summit Riders)
Wurm siege (Wurms)
Spectral Agony (Mursaat)
Crystal Hibernation (Glint)

Two April Mornings · Feb 16, 2006, 03:35 AM // 03:35

Stone Summit Heretics. FTL!

twicky_kid · Feb 16, 2006, 04:06 AM // 04:06

Any kind of Mesmers. I don't care what area of region they are always deadly.

Having just done Abbadons mouth.. we had 1 monk, mhenlo, me as necro and the rest were warriors... tell you what, Willa went down a lot faster than I expected. The other mission where I like a lot of warriors is Thirsty river. I was playing monk and ended up physically exhausted watching the pace they (all 5 of them) were mowing through the mission.
