Your least favourite enemy in ESO.

brassmaster12

So what enemy do you absolutely hate coming across in ESO? This could be down to how it looks, the mechanics it uses, anything.

Aliyavana

The ones that temporarily make themselves invulnerable

Sheezabeast

I think they're called Fetcher Flies, they're all over Hew's Bane. I hate, hate, hate aggroing those things!!!

faeeichenlaub

I think you mean the Kotu Gava? Damn mosquito like thing? yeah. They. are. awful.

oldbobdude

I hate the cliff racers. They aren't tough and have a predictable attack routine, but still hate them.

bmnoble

Any that can pull you back to them after you ran past with the full intention of ignoring the mobs on your way somewhere else.

Yeah, those things

Supertonicbaker

Those dual wielding, aggravating, jerks (to put it kindly) that have those insanely short casting times that cc you before you can either get to them, or even notice they’re in the group to begin with. What are they? Marauders? Raiders? Not the ones that jump over you and sharpen their swords and spin attack you. Those... other ones.

zvavi

The lag and his friend the bug.

Starlock

Does RNG count? I think RNG counts. Doesn't need to be in the game, but is because reasons.

shimm

The guards/menders at resources in Cyrodiil. They make my skills not fire (even without negate!), delay my skills, cause me to be unable to bar swap, magically regenerate their health to full and occasionally teleport.

phaneub17_ESO

Rats. Especially with abilities that need to target the enemy specifically, you sure you lined up with a real target only to strike dead a rat between you and the target.

Hey! You're not supposed to just throw out the objectively correct answer in the very first reply of the thread! That's cheating! :P

MasterSpatula

Kotu Gave aren't even remotely difficult, yet I hate coming across them with a passion.

But even worse are all the trash mobs that leap up into the air and stay there for a second or two before coming down. Or the trash mobs that put a guard on another mob, and no matter how much you focus the red-glowing mob, you still manage to kill the other one, so the guarding mob falls to his knees and becomes invulnerable for a second or two. These serve no purpose, no purpose at all in the whole wide universe, other than to drag out a nuisance encounter. They don't present an interesting challenge; they just interrupt fun and waste our time, and I'll spend more time going around them than it would have taken to just fight them if I can.

Saucy_Jack

The people that don't completely loot nodes or chests.

Lisa

Spiders. They run off to heal on the remains of the dead. Super annoying.

Sylvermynx

Kotu Gava Broodmothers. I see one flapping, I head the other direction. GD insect things.... yuck.

Ah, yeah, the Fetcherfly hives in Vvardenfell are a real nuisance too - but if you don't run into one or actively choose to bother it, they're not a problem.

UGotBenched91

That weird looking blue/black demon-dragon thing that ESO recycles in so much content. Can’t we get new interesting mobs without repeating the same design?

VaranisArano

Red-phase Centurions.

It never fails that they focus on the player who's least prepared for their whirling blade arms of death and then they scream "Tank?!!" like I'm supposed to be doing something about it.

And so I find myself typing "it's untauntable" in the middle of a boss fight.

Wolfpaw

Content updates, and patch days.

Echoing Hollow in NW Murkmire. It has been buffed into a disgusting mini-trial (although it's a WB, lol) that requires at least 5-6 people to kill within a reasonable amount of time. Our group of 4 required about 20 minutes to take it down, it's extremely frustrating given the ridiculous self-healing.

The other revolting boss is Drodda the final boss of vet Direfrost Keep, her self-healing is revolting if not handled properly.

I guess I hate bosses that heal themselves.

SilverBride

Swarming things, especially the ones with hives that just keep coming.

Athan1

Spiders that leech on their dead comrades and heal themselves are also pretty gross.

DrScott59

The Harvester boss in Vaults of Madness. I like to solo group dungeons, and her 10+ second levitate is really annoying when solo.

Amottica

Load screen

Gythral

server slug...

jm42

all stupid mobs that chase you through all the tamriel but running away when you kick them. that is extremely stupid mech just so annoying

fizl101

clannfear jumping on your head or the broodmothers.

GlorphNoldorin

server delay
bugs

If four people took twenty minutes, then they weren't killing the totems.

yes, the self-healing is annoying and excessive, but you are supposed to prevent it.
