Ok, another thread got me thinking about this...

What is your most hated monster to fight?

For me its a toss up between devourers or Scarabs, probably leaning towards devourers, I just cringe everytime I heard that rustle....*blahh*

Devourers are super lame, especially the ones in early Ascalon that have lightning reflexes, delaying their 2 hit deaths.

The scarabs outside of Amnoon Oasis were always a pain.. Can't stand them..
So when I ascended, I went and killed as many as possible near Amnoon. heh. Don't mind me.

Avicara. I. Hate. Avicara. I will fight anything else and not mind it one bit, but I *HATE* Avicara. I am also annoyed with their Tengu cousins.

But Avicara... oohhhhhhhh.....

Devourers are also low on my list. But Avicara are the worst.

For me there's two groups of monsters that I really HATE: Imps (no matter what kinda imps) and Tengu/Avicara.

Both tend to have a strange skill to kill me, no matter what level, which profession am I. Even if the group I'm in is all lvl 20's, there's always one Tengu beating the **** out of me

Spark of the titans can be very annoying when your caller says "I'm attacking Burning Titan!".

The single most annoying thing in the game: Willa The Unpleasant, thank god for interrupts.

Lawn Gnomes. I hate em! they so evil!

Oh, wrong game? then i would say the the 2 monstas i hate most come from the newly made PvE Tombs:: Grasps of Insanity and Scythes of Chaos. THAT DANG CHAOS FINGERS STANCE! Not to mention the uber skilled placement of Scythe interrupts. ARGH ARGH ARGH!

Funny thing is, i dont consider any of these Tombs monsters to be all that difficult to kill, I just hate them... lol Enjoy.

s'pose i should pick something a little less terrifying... hmmm Wurms are just annoying and cant hurt you, those heteics and strip enchants monsters are good cause they rid the world of evil runners and noob 55 monks... i'm thinking a mob of about 15 Hydras... but still nothing can beat Gwen, sitting there laughing as you die to the River Drake, Get your own darn flute!

Edenial kills those damn things, and they don't fight back so hard... whereas mindblades are grrr.

Tengu are kinda evil too.

Willa the Unpleasant. All the other monk bosses are no problem that one is, I have a very personal hatred for her (it is a she, right?).

Avicaras just have a weird way where you're attacking only one, and suddenly, 20 cousins show up to join in leaving you to wonder if that avicara has a mobile phone.. yes, they are annoying.

ANYTHING with an interrupt skill. The computer's ability to interrupt is very unfairly better than that of a human with a normal human reaction time. Stupid computer-controlled mobs are able to interrupt things no human could ever interrupt on purpose, like stuff that has such a ridiculously short cast time that the only way a human could ever interrupt it is by randomly using interrupts and getting a lucky shot. That is so lame. Humans have to see and identify the skill being used, decide if they should try to interrupt it, move the cursor and click or find the right button, then wait for the interrupt to activate, wheareas the computers must be coded to think "when player uses skill, if interrupt available=yes then activate interrupt" all within a tiny, negligible amount of time. I'm surprised the computer-controlled mobs don't interrupt activating STANCES.

Alesia rushing to res & players casting/attacking through Spiteful Spirit do more harm then most mobs. Ok, the inhabitants of the UW Chaos Plane are plain evil.

Conjure Phantasm users, monks with Mark of Protection (I hench a lot.) and Giants. I can handle one interrupt when casting a spell, but a mob of giants tends to ruin my good day.
