Your most hated non-boss enemy?

[Zirbiss]

I started playing the first DLC area. Playing the mission "Disturbance in the North" atm.
I ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ hate the toad-looking enemies with shells on their backs. Meeting one of them is no problem, but when there is two or more they are so ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ annoying. They felt harmless in the base game and not used that often. But for the DLC it's like the devs realized "hey these are a pain in the ass when you have more of them, let's use that!"

So, what enemies makes you boil on the inside?

Hmm, I'm still on early game, I still have problem with tounge one eye cyclops (onyudo) for some odd reason. Tengu is kind of tricky because his wind Blade. For umbrella, they are easy. I'm just using anti para and they are gone.

onymo spammers

[Arashi]

Onmyo dudes, Rokurokubi and foxes... Mainly because they back away after the attack.

Raven Tengus! I hate them! I generally hate flying enemies also Bosses! Starting with Ino...

And Wheelmonks too...

Raven Tengu

Raven Tengu - I always feel my heart skip a beat when I see one from a distance. I dread going near these. I can't figure out when is safe to stay near them. They always have an atack ready and I can't read their animations for a warning.

Wheelmonks - I hate these because how cheap deaths to them are. I kill them most times without getting hit; they will however 1 shot me if I fail to dash our of their way when they roll toward me. They also have insane tracking on the spin thing, like, they'll turn 180 degrees without losing any speed.

I just finished my first playthrough last night, I am starting ng+ this evening. I may have to update my list soon^^

[Zirbiss]

I find wheelmonks easy if you stay close to them and dash in a circle to get behind them, and then hit them in the amrita eye.

[Taffey]

Wheelmonk!!!

[Counter-Life]

Kusarigama Yokai.

[fiziologus]

Spearmen. Any.
Second, Boku-Boku. Weak itself, but some all (almost) 'I love die' players wear West Honor, and this make musician very strong.

Anything that doesn't look like a serious threat, oni-bi for example. Dying to one of them makes me want to kick myself for running into their dash or bolt with no health. Every time I see one I have to make an effort to consider them a worthy target, when there're many of them around then yeah, I go into oh ♥♥♥♥, oh ♥♥♥♥, where's my kunai shortcut. Also anything small or crawling like tiny spiders or dwellers when they crawling. I feel lazy to change my stance just for them. Just another day was in high stance against dweller and right when it started its grab animation kusarigama landed on its head and beheaded it. Yet, it continued animation, pinned my character to the ground and vomited poison. As soon as that ended it died. Funny. Wish there's AoE. Spammable.

Elevation. No, I don't mean dying from fall, I mean missing target just because it was above you on the hill or below. So many times I fall for this …. come from behind, press stealth strong attack and miss. Don't even get me started on serpent strike misses.

Anything with a grab attack. It feels so cheesy when they do the grab attack and you're behind them and it still gets you.

Messaggio originale di montengo:

Yeah, the oni-bi are usually just a nuisance, but when they're with other enemies they can be a deadly nuisance. =/

How has no one said Namahage yet. Deceptively long reach; weird, unpredictable combos; and not even LW spam takes them out quickly enough on higher difficulties. Although, I'll give wheelmonks an honorable mention (they always decide to start rolling even when im standing next to them)

namahage can becomes predictable if u poke from the back and dodge away. just stay semi close and hit 1 or 2 times depending on ur weapon, rinse and repeat.

Or just break its horn.
