Most annoying enemies ?

[Elden_Lord]

What are your most hated enemy types ? for me it's dogs was the same in the dark souls games if there is a pack of them and you are under levelled they can super gank you pretty fast if you not prepared and they jump at you from weird camera angles also I hate eagles in ER i hate fighting any type of aerial enemies would like to hear other peoples

The Knight enemies get more overtuned each title, Banished Shield Knights are definitely my Public Enemy Number One.
(Shoutout to the Greatsword Knight before Dragonslayer Armor who is harder than the boss lol)

DLC Curseblades are a second in annoyance, but their lethality is not actually that high.

the giant finger/hand enemies, those centipede things with the staff, avatars, dogs and giant caelid dogs for base game. The DLC didn't have anything all that annoying apart from the horned warriors, the horned warriors are the worst enemies in the entirety of Elden Ring.

-1. Dogs. Mostly because they are F*CKING EVERYWHERE. (If you exclude the undreground cities and minor dungeons like catacombs, and even then not all of them, there's only four places with no dogs/wolves in the entire base game, Caria Manor, Volcano Manor, the Carian Library and the Haligtree, that's how stupid it is.)

1. Curseblade Omens,
2. Royal Revenants,
3. Ordina's Albinauric Archers.
4. Hands of any size and shape.

The most annoying enemy is Miyazaki gleefully placing a hollow with a grab attack right around a corner. And the grab attack doesn't even do that much damage but has a very long and humiliating animation.

Also, the rats have way too much hyper armor in this game.

anything reskined or copy and pasted. way too many reused assets in this game and I am tired of people defending that.

Rune bears, revenants, those bug enemies that have homing web attacks.

Since it’s an open world game it’s more understandable.

Ulcerated Tree Spirit just because of that one fight at the Haligtree. The placement is the work of a devil. You're basically fighting 3 things at once, the bloody creature, the pool of rot and the gravity. I would rather fight an unlimited amount of dogs, runebears and tree sentinels than this.

Huh? Pretty sure 99.9% people just shoot that spirit from the nearby root. It's just so obvious.

While annoying, where you fight it you should be able to kill it with ease compared to the one you can fight at the start of the game.

I think there's some wiggle room for most annoying depending on your build but some I just generally do not like:
Royal Revanents (inb4 dID u kNoW)
Birds of any variety ( a lot more manageable with mage/ any ranged options tho)
Duel sword banished knights (frankly absurd combos)
Kindred of rot/ Pest thread spamming ♥♥♥♥♥♥
Big freaking hands (way easier with fire damage)

No it isn't? Don't make a big map if you can't fill it with unique and engaging content

Also not sure if he was also just talking about things just copy and pasted from dark souls 3 ala old dragonslayer style (tree spirits, crabs, imps, basalisks, and dogs off the top of my head)

There is, just very hard to make constant distinct enemies. Name an open world that doesn’t rely on reskinned enemies. As for other enemies I mean outside lore reasons they have the animations you expect those to be unique or new every time?

[Talilover]

I won't name an open world with constant distinct enemies because I can't think of one, which I why I still hold it against fromsoft falling for the "everything has to be open world" meme, I can rant and rave about how comparably awful the repeated content in elden ring specifically is tho if you'd like?

And what are you talking about "lore reasons"? What lore is there behind Fromsoft copy and pasting dark souls 3 enemies in elden ring? Do I expect a different game to use different models/ animation skeletons? Yeah, I kinda do...is that a big ask?
