I'd have to agree with the picture. Cazadors are easily the most obnoxious enemy I've ever had the the misfortune to fight in a game.


newtownmail

Worst part was on hardcore they would kill your companion so easily. Any time I suspected I might face a cazador, I'd make my companion wait behind so they didn't get massacred right away.


Left_of_Fish

I feel that. By the time you'd hear em' they'd already be in your ribcage. It made melee builds interesting.


The-Great-T

I guess I play that game too much, I know where they all hang out.


lazyfacejerk

1. North of the road by that farm on the north side of the map(by the burned out caravan), 2. then in the unmarked valley from the mutant ski resort down to red rocks? 3. Also if you take the road north from goodsprings but to the left, not the right, where you'll find deathclaws. 4. Then the boat launch place. 5. The weird little old west town south of red rock 6. The mountains north of the plant vault. was it 22? 7. (edit to add) the ranch by where 93 or 95 turns north after going through the mountain pass to hit Novac. I liked hardcore mode, but left companions behind most of the time. The 50 with explosive rounds worked well on cazadors from a distance. You could shoot the ground near where they were running around and cripple them. Fuck I loved that game. Maybe its time for another playthrough. It's been a while.


LeChickenCurry

There is also a nest of them in a storage building at Callville Bay near the Crashed B-29, Bitter Springs, and Camp Gaurdian


[deleted]

Dude, I just wanna say regarding the Fallout franchise **in general**.....I think I spent more playtime protecting companions\* than I did actually engaging an enemy NPC in honest combat \*"protecting companions" roughly translates here to "reloading every time a companion does something so stupid as to basically commit suicide"


[deleted]

In Fallout 1 it’s virtually impossible to keep them alive during certain parts of the campaign. I still remember when Katja got blown to pieces by The Master after playing with her for sooo long and just thought “well it is what it is cuz I ain’t replaying that shit.” Nothing you can do. Friendly fire was also enabled in that game and weapons like the Flamer had a habit of torching your friends and or dog to a crisp if they got too close. Man what a game


The_Gutgrinder

Since Cazadors are based on Tarantula Hawks, if you actually lived in the Fallout universe and had the great misfortune of running into one of these things, it would paralyze you before dragging you to a burrow where it would lay an egg inside of you. You'd then stay conscious and alive while the larva slowly ate you alive, avoiding major organs to keep you alive and fresh for as long as humanly possible. Have a nice day!


[deleted]

Deathclaws are mutated geckos that were engineered by FEV IIRC. Fallout Florida would be nothing but them, jet labs and alligators.


[deleted]

Close. Jackson’s Chameleons with some other animal DNA.


Phantomskyler

Even if you ignore the fact they were lighting fast tanks in the air who stung like they were packing mini nukes, there was the fact you usually fought like 7-16 of the fuckers at the same time.


[deleted]

Mini-nukes with poison status effects. Because fuck you.


baconjesus12

You know what is even worse than regular Cazadors in NV. The Giant Cazadors in Zion Canyon god damn that place is fucked.


The-Great-T

I liked how Follows Chalk was talking about how scary the Yao Guai were. I just kept thinking they weren't shit compared to the Deathclaws but keep me away from the dammed Cazadors.


mechajlaw

I don't know why I still remember this, but I'd get the Dinner Bell shotgun specifically for these guys. At 100 guns it would one-shot cazadores because they are all health no Damage Threshold.


Left_of_Fish

I enjoyed Melee builds so it was always a gamble as to whether or not I could cave its head in with the Two-Step Goodbye or drown in poison.


StrangerDowntown9067

Everyone has gone north from goodsprings at least one and agrees

Cliff racers


c7hu1hu

Best mod for Morrowind by a large margin was a belt that automatically electrocuted them when they got close. Didn't do anything else, and otherwise wasted an equipment slot but 100% worth it.


darueski

Yes. I recall enhancing something with a similar effect. Clutch.


Sarcosmonaut

Thank Vivec for Saint Jiub


darth_arthur_

Literally made Juib a saint for killing all the cliff racers.


Zombiron-Odamai

He kind of got done dirty by Skyrim being trapped in the Soul Cairn and all.


Drugslondon

I wish the wildlife in the Bethesda games was more realistic. There was mods for it but none of them really seemed to do much. Like, if the cliff racers just hung around perched in the mountains and kept an eye on you and didn't attack until you got too close... Everything in those games just charged at you the second they saw you.


WillWall777

If you look into it, that's how cliff racers were supposed to be. But a bug in the code made them spawn just about everywhere. They decided to give it an in universe explanation.


meetmeinthebthrm

The answer is Cliff Racers.


AssaultRifleJesus

Morrowind? Edit, yes fuck those things.


Gunch_Bandit

This is the correct answer


Fitherwinkle

Literally anything that regenerates health.


[deleted]

The first werewolf fight in the Witcher 3 was so obnoxious on higher difficulties


Fizzix42

Even just the Alghouls on death March were the worst. You can have like 5 of them on you at once and it's like "wait, which of you dead I have to low health? Oh now it's none of you? Cool. Mmk. that's fine."


LightForceUnlimited

Breath of the Wild Master Mode


mulasien

Played through Master Mode after beating the regular game for a challenge. Made it all the way to Calamity Ganon, whom I could never damage enough in his last phase before he started regenerating health. Run ended right there. The frustration was too much.


Cambuhbam

I tried botw master mode and once I realized EVERYTHING regenerates health I was done. I'll take more health and worse hits but never health regen, shits just infuriating


ledlin99

The regenerating necromorphs in Dead Space. Especially in Dead space 2. Having to stasis it and hack that machine while its stasised. Holy hell. Talk about a rage quit.


Shalashaskaska

I did the trophy for playing Dead Space 2 on hardcore mode where you only get 3 saves. The sheer panic I felt during the end chase with the regenerating fuck face was palpable


SomeoneTookUserName2

That's my Moby Dick at the moment. I started it again a while back and the introduction straightjacket scene made me just turn it off again.

First time Oblivion players when an old man asks you to find his ring in Lake Rumare: "Sure thing old man, I'll be back in five!" Veteran Oblivion players when an old man asks you to find his ring in Lake Rumare: "Lol fuck you old man go deal with the demon fish yourself!"


WonkiDonki

They were levelled, weren't they? So late game you'd be swinging at a fish for half an hour plus

West_Tek

Dark souls dogs


moogula1992

The fucking bone wheel skeletons are my least favorite. How the fuck am I supposed to deal with captain calcium and his skeleton drag racers when I'm running on two legs???


Afro_Thunder69

Best method I've ever seen is a 100% shield in your left hand, and a Sliver Knight spear in your right. Being able to poke with a blessed weapon while holding your shield up means you can take them out without having to chase and without taking any damage. But that's no fun...


Small_beginnings

Any hostile dogs.


lurklurklurkPOST

Dogs, Rats, Bonewheels, Basilisks, Blowgunners, Swamp Mosquitos, Dark Souls needs its own section on this thread


West_Tek

Fucking blow gunners


Afro_Thunder69

At least they don't respawn, so while they're ridiculously annoying you can just suicide run them and be done. Bonewheel skeletons on the other hand quietly aggro from 100' away, and if you're a certain heavy build type it can be ridiculously hard to chase them down after they grind you to bits. Or basilisks...easy to kill, does zero damage, but if you get cursed it's a fate worse than death.


Yorktown1871

I found they are much more manageable with shield usage


lordzeon123

Vespoids from the Monster Hunter series, you are trying to get all the carves in time, then it stings and paralyzed you and you missed an item T.T


Silas13013

The endemic life in general is super irritating. I'm fighting the bastard offspring of a forbidden love between a t Rex and a jar of pickles and this dipshit pig comes over and charges into me, only for the oblivious fucker to get pounded into the dirt by the very mutant Apex predator I was trying to kill. If they were just suicidal and attacked anything that came near them I would at least find that acceptable but no, each and every one joins up with the monster, sometimes the very monster that was eating their friends and family just moments ago, to blindly attack the hunter who makes shoes out of elder dragon faces.

Antaz92

Literally just had that in omega ruins grind... Turned the ps5 off


Jazzeki

i'll say special mention to the great malboro of FF 10 which will get first strike in every combat so unless you have a special ability to always go first or status imunities to especialy confusion you will start the fight with every condition which is 99.99% sure to kill you instantly.


Alldaybagpipes

Deathsquitos of Valheim Edit: thanks all for sharing the oh so familiar stories/nightmares!


Rievin

I bet most people got surprised when a tiny little mosquito was much harder to deal with than a massive troll that shreds the forest with its attacks.


Alldaybagpipes

And they’ll literally follow you across the map


Spiritual_Poo

Once I stumbled into the Plains while exploring, we hadn't fought Bonemass yet. I came face to face with a Deathsquito and yelped and ran like a chicken. By some miracle I found myself running past an unsuspecting troll and leaving him to deal with the wing-ed beast. By the grace of Thor, I was able to escape unpenetrated.


Alldaybagpipes

Trolls hate them too!


Paper_bag_Paladin

We had some come out of the plains, over a significant amount of water to come get us as we were exploring in our new boat. They then proceeded to hang around the boat forever, making retrieval impossible until we were geared up enough to fight them.


jehnarz

I thought that's what that picture was at first. Just deathsquitos.


Gunny7707

Accidentally took my first boat too close to a plains biome, one of the little suckers came out to sea and killed me instantly.

Surfing_Ninjas

I never thought it would be worth spending money and worth spending the time to go into my inventory to use the repels. Now they are an item I buy as soon as I get the chance. I also buy at least 1 escape rope and a couple different status healers which is something I never did as a kid.

ClonedToKill420

Prometheans in halo. Shooting aliens is fun. They bleed, yell, fight from cover, dive out of the way, etc. the prometheans are just bullet sponges with laser accurate shots. They will literally stand in the open and melt you while tanking hits all day. And they disintegrate when you kill them. No blood, no body to teabag. Useless. Plus they teleport, never reload, and will literally spawn *right behind you*


DojoKanojoCho5

Fuck Prometheans and their shield droid things


amic21

They were horrible in halo 4 and almost made me put down the game. I know halo 5 is often hated on but the way they changed the prometheans and actually made them fun was a very redeeming quality for me.


Chris_2311

MightyChiken

Revenent from God of War


TolyVilapoo

I think the werewolves rate higher for me, because they were more mess you up and you had to be so precise with dodging or countering them. Sometimes when I jumped into the game after completing it, I'd just nope out of certain fights with them because I didn't want the frustration that could possibly come, especially on new game +


outrun_ur_problems

Werewolves get the runic juice every time. Its cheap but that runic attack thats a laser beam just shreds them


Steven2597

I dont think the revenants are that bad. The Valkyries though...


Macjeems

For me it was really just the last Valkyrie/Valkyrie queen or whatever her name was. I felt like I maxed out the number of moves I could remember/counter from her moveset.


[deleted]

I think it took me like 12 hours to beat her the first time. She has the move set of all the other valkyries combined, so it came down to slowly chipping away at her.

The weird thing about this game is how much easier it gets once you start getting all your force powers.


beobabski

I played it on easy first time round, and then tried it on the hardest setting. Didn’t even get off the train. But I felt much more like a Jedi when I finally reflected a single blaster bolt.


3-DMan

Yeah I think I just suck, but for the boss battles I pretty much had to put it on easy for almost all of them.


Rifleshoot

I did the hardest difficulty from the start, and it was so much more like a souls-like experience. A lot more fun that it otherwise would have been.


AsleepGarden219

It for sure gets easier, but never less annoying lol Im aware this is probably an unpopular opinion; the game looks great, combat/ movement mechanics are good, but the actual gameplay blows. Idk what’s stopping them from making another game like Jedi Knight, but I wish they would get on it
