Most annoying creature to kill
- Thread starter Knox
- Start date
Frost trolls are rather easy with a legendary steel great sword. I'm not even using enchanted weapons or armor and I finish those things off in a few whacks. They're pretty good for leveling up blocking as well. Just hold down the block button and let them swing away. Just be sure to back off when the health starts dropping.
The other day I got attacked by three bears at one time. That was rather annoying. Spiders have to rank up pretty high just for the creepy factor alone.

When I was a tank, they were so easy to kill. They'd put up a ward against me and I'd go, "Oh, yeah? You think that's going to stop me? How 'bouts I just run up to you and stab you with mah swords?" But now that I'm a mage myself, those wards just soak up the damage I'm trying to do. =(

lol I know what you mean. When I started playing the game, I was on adept, and I was breezing through every thing. I recently bumped up to Master level and I can't take two hits from these guys without endangering my life.

there is a mod right now that lets you do this. FYI though it isnt in the CK so you have to manage it yourself from the nexus.

The worst to kill is two dragons that both breath frost so you cant reach them.

I hate the chaurus: its not that they are that hard to kill, it is that ominous clicking sound they make before they actually show up and you start trying to look every direction at once.

vampires are a big pian in the but to kill as well. They steal your life and freeze you. Biggest pain ever.

Chaurus because of their poisonous attack. With the difficulty increasing mod I can very easily and quickly drop down from 380 health to nearly zero when the poison sinks in.
Lightning mages are also annoying as hell because I don't have any shock resistance - two or three jolts from a high level lightning mage will drop me. If I can close the distance the mage is as good as dead.. but that is a big if. I don't have any ranged attacks, either, apart from shouts and the wabbajack.
Until recently I was having big trouble with elder and ancient dragons, especially if they refused to land and kept blasting me with fire or frost from above. I must've died 5 times during one such fight in Morthal after I ran out of frost resistance potions. Now they're not so terrible any longer as I got my enchanting up to 100 + the double enchantment perk & crafted myself a whole new set of armor which now gives me fire and frost resistance.
None of the foes mentioned above posed a very significant threat even on Master difficulty.. it was only after I incorporated the mod which pushes the difficulty even higher that these fights became truly challenging. However, now that I have double enchantments on all my gear and weapons, they've become more manageable again - sudden deaths are no longer nearly as frequent as they used to be.
I'm also beginning to dislike snowy sabercats because I've been ambushed by them far too often lately. It only takes one swing of my 2-handed axe to kill them, but if they manage to jump me from a disadvantageous position they can chip away a good chunk of my health before I've turned to face them.

I had an epic fight with Red Eagle last night, the swine kept Shouting my sword away and closed far too quickly for my magic to be brought into full effect, so I had an idea.. I summoned a fire atronach to distract him a bit then ran to the back of his sarcophagus so he couldn't reach me (he doesn't seem to use magics).
From the safety of here I shouted M4D at him, this got him p!ssed and he made a run for me. So picture the scene: me, a bit too weak to fight him H2H (level 19 mage), and him.. running around and around the sarcophagus over and over again! I honestly circled the coffin a hundred times to keep the swine away from me.
Lydia & my fire atronach simply sat back and watched, as if totally bemused. They made no attempt to join the fight after a few circles, you could almost hear them sI'm a racist asshole who doesn't understand boundaries, respect, or basic human decency and I need helping.
In the end I knew I was in bother, i'd need to resole my boots at this rate before I could get him on the back foot, so I switched to UF Shout and as soon as he was to the left side of the coffin I blasted the bastard to the far corner of the crypt. Somehow he was stuck there, he just kept waving his sword to mock us. Now I switched to dual-fire staves. In another 10 blasts he expired.
Honesty, it was like a Benny Hill sketch. A podiatrists dream.

i completely agree with you on the frost troll thing. i accidentally found the labyrinthian as a level 8 or so... i hid on a ledge shooting it with arrows for an hour(maybe that is an exaggeration but it felt like an hour) before i gave up. and i had lydia with me too.

Bears and saber cats. They both catch up to you very fast (impossible to outrun them), they're very strong and they're hard to kill. The only way to counter them is to fus ro dah them and run or use fear (which almost never works as they're too high level, especially the ice ones). I also have a hatred toward falmers.

Chauruses were the worse, if we're talking about creatures and not characters. I really enjoy slaying them now that they are no longer a threat.
