IMO it's those "bad word" seed monsters. Life Pods atm, i hate them.

You know, the ones that pop up when your fighting a group of monsters and start healing the crap out of whatever your fighting. Then they cast Holy Wrath on my target!

I really hate them, lol.

Hydras...I know they are not that bad, but when I was coming up in ranks they were...they seemed abnormally hard to pass no matter what we did. I hated them like no other enemy.

Na the worst monster is the warrior in the group that runs off to aggro the next set (yes yes I play a warrior and fully know about the adrenaline), don't wait for anyone then complain when they die that no one healed them or helped them.

Jade scarabs and hydras esp the ones on perdition rock that cast metor shower on you. BTW its not just warriors who rush in. In my group last night in the fissure we had a MONK that kept doing that. Aslo in another group we had a ranger do that. So you see its not just warriors.

I hate imps... definately worst normal monster for me... and probably most other casters. But I most hate when there's 2 M-----t bosses together. They're near impossible and even for a fully equipped high power team they take like 2 or 3 minutes to kill. One person drops and it's a stalemate, 2 people drop or have a dp and you're doomed.

Avicara. Ninjas with swords + exploding arrows.
Sand Elementals. Knockdown + massive damage.
Stormkin. Cry of Frustration on spells which take 1/4 second to cast.

The Magma Imps in the Fire Island missions. Nothing like an Immolate that lasts 7 seconds (

Nothing else even compares to those for me. All of the water elementalists, and imagined burden mesmers are annoying when I'm runing from one place to another but the imps by far take the cake.

For me ANY of the scarab type monsters are annoying. They're not as hard as many other monsters <ice worms RULEZ>, but they annoy the hell out of me, popping up in droves every three steps I take, and take a lot of killing.
I just hate the mofos and groan every encounter.

At low levels , the Hydras. Hate those things.

At upper levels, no doubt the worms. I just run out of range if possible and hate when I have to actually stop and fight them.

Anything that pops out from the ground or drops down from trees in large amounts:

ANY form of devourer.
ANY form of spider.

These buggers usually have the effect of "run, stop, run, stop...geez does this never end!?" ...instead of "aah look at that red patch..circle circle..attack!".

I can accept getting nothing from a group of smites while everyone else in the group gets something good.
But i realy hate them when it's my turn to get a drop and all i get is "3 piles of glitering dust".....argggggggg

For me the monster that takes the cake is Glint.
Not only it's hard to kill her, but when she finaly tears your
group to pieces she starts talking trash. I hate her!!

I hate the Damned clerics. As a lvl 20 Warrior I went to Beetletun to fight the hordes of undead. My party of henchmen was wiped out and all that remained was me.

I only had left this damned cleric, and two undead monks. I couldn't kill any of them. The cleric would heal the monks as I tried to kill them, and if I tried to kill the cleric he did reversal of fortune and also spammed heals on himself, as well as the monks.

They couldn't kill me either, so we were at a standoff for ten minutes or so. Eventually, I had to go since it was late and I needed to go since I had work in the morning. But wow, this guy shut me down with gash, gal. gash, sever artery, for great justice, res, healing signet, whirlwind, and fear me.

Nevertheless, when I redo this quest,I will try out some other skills to shut this dude down.

As a side note, what Warrior/Elementalist skills are good for overcoming these guys?

Mergoyles annoyed the crap outta me with their "Spirit Shackles"!
Also, Summit Beastmasters and anything with Giant Stomp.
And those enemies who you can't see bc they popup (except wurms, I like wurms).

Any group of giants. Multiple Giant stomps is probably the msot iritating thing in the game.

Anything in an explorable area with enchantment removal aswell...they ruin my day when Im trying to run solo from one area to another.

Those elementals or Drakes in the desert that love to Knockdown + Aftershock. Bloody scary as an elementalist or when you're trying to cure as a monk.

A pack of stampeding Giants. Chain Stomping a group while other mobs poke away at you till near death... no fun >.>

Ether Seals! They can be the worst to kill if you have no actual good physical damage )*>,<)

Any and all disenchant monsters. Almost 50% of the skills are enchantments, and once you reach Kryta, it seems that even the road you're walking on has disenchants.

I have no problem with a few monsters doing it, or a specific subtype doing it (ie, the Charr Kaot), but when every single frigging mob starts having disenchant, it gets boring REALLY quickly.

All this in some attempt to "stop botting"...

Finally ... finallly someone actually got the gusto to post it up! Cheers Porkchop ...

for me I can't say Glint as I'm an interrupter and glint pales in comparison and should really shut her mouth before I give it to her again ... worms ... my guildies love taking em down .. throw up a protective meat sheild ... and kick the crap outta them. How else you getting well of power?

In all honesty I'd say I hate the massive amounts of ice imps in ice flow ... not only is there like 30 ish ... (they are that hard, just annoying) ... all casting various maelstroms ... I leave one maelstrom and jump into another ... very very annoying I'd say. Spark of the titan too for there damage is a pain. I would say rurik ... but he was more an annoyance while he was on my team then anything.

Azure Shadow and Scarabs are by far the most annoying since they have the highest unexpected ganking potential

there is this one guy named "[something] The Enduring" or something like that on Thunderhead. he's pretty annoying in a "just die already!" kinda way

oh yeah, Spirit Shepherds are also extremely annoying

Hydras in the crystal desert.

Even after ascension, these things are impossible to handle well. If your group scatters too much, the monks can't heal everyone. If you attack in a well-formed group, they all will spike damage you with meteor shower, and 4/6 of your group is down to a sliver of health in less then a second.

Sometimes, if you are patient, they'll split enough that you can pull just 1 or 2. But, all too often, you are fighting 4, and then a group of 3 that patrol stumble into the battle also. That's death for any group.
