Most Irritating Mobs to Fight

A frequent topic of discussion while grouped with other players seems to be which mobs we hate the most, and find to be the most irritating to fight.

In no particular order, here are the ones I find to be the most irritating:
  • Stranglers. Stop pulling me around you jerks!
  • Ice Wraiths. Stop diving underground and becoming temporarily immune to all of my skills/AOEs you jerks!
  • Giant Bats. Stop screeching at me you jerks!
  • Kotu Gava. Stop buzzing around me you jerks!

So what mobs do you guys find to be the most irritating to fight? I'm not necessarily asking which ones you find the toughest (none of the ones I listed are tough to fight), just which ones you find the most annoying (although a mobs that's really tough to fight could certainly be annoying to fight).

    Anything that screeches at me.

    Spiders are also irritating as they not only screech, they run away then spit on me, or they suck the corpses to regain health and are more difficult to target when doing that.

    I am not looking forward to Cliff Racers again.....
    Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.

    I have a very low dmg output. Personally I hate fighting healers - especially elite/boss healers.

    Otherwise normally elite/bosses that have a LOT of stuns, snares, fears etc... become annoying because of my low dmg output, I end up having to block (not for mitigation reasons, but jsut so I dont spend 3 seconds + stunned/feared etc...); it drags the fight on even more because I dont do a lot of dmg AND have to spend half of my time blocking and not attacking...

    Surprisingly, the ones I find the most annoying are the ones I kill for farming. I simply hate when Ra Netu, one by one keep stunning me and leave their annoying miasma when they die. I also hate the hordes of mages that keep healing each other and running away. Dark talons and fiery grip are my best friends there.

    I hate fighting any NPC that spams snares on you... I hate snares and the way the combat has became snare-centric where EVERYTHING that touches you snares you :#

    Also, those nighbladeish NPCs that spam agony on you? Aghhhh... I hate those things and the way it sticks to you after you break it and makes that awful root noise and flickering effect on your feet :s

    Level 5 resource guards.

    It feels like they have the same functionality as the highest difficulty enemies in a modern fighting game, in that they read what actions you're taking as they happen and respond immediately and without fault. Do you know how annoying it is to hit R and then get negated *and* imprisoned at exactly the same time before the animation even starts?

    Spiders, hands down.

    It's only gotten worse since you can no longer interrupt them when they start feeding on a carcass.

    You are just delaying the inevitable.

    The Kotu Gava without a doubt. Their agro range is ridiculous not to mention the distance they can actually engage you from, then when you go to defend yourself half of the attacks don't register. Then to top it all off after you have taken care of the bug it explodes and you get to fight its offspring, if you're not careful two or more can end you before you can find them. I love farming Hew's Bane, but I HATE that enemy.

    I just interrupted a dozend of them while they were busy feeding in my questing today.
    So bashing them still works fine.
    Maybe you are doing it wrong? ;)

    As for me... I have gotten used to most anemies peculiarities. Still dislike quite a few of them... especially the harvesters when they float my character immobile at the start of their "feast"...lemme at 'em!

    But all the -true- aggrivations have been nerfed by now, so...

    Was he AFK? I don't know how you could die to them otherwise... I mean, they're super annoying but they're not exactly very dangerous.

    Spiders and Kotu Gava are the worst! Also archers/mages that constantly run away from you to attack from a distance.
