This is going to sound mighty funny, but, on my first run through the game, nothing really scared me. Up to a point that is.
Dragons were well done and cool to look at, but, I lost all respect when my Blade left his party behind (Moves quick in a spin) and totally smashed Big Red in seconds. Got lucky, scored criticals.
Shadow Dragon died pretty much the same way.
Mindflayers were a bit easy. I used old school PnP tactics, they worked fine.
Drow gave me slight trouble at first. Once I had tactics down, inredibly easy.
Beholders. Tough. But fun. I used the portal in the Asylum to go directly to the Underdark in my very first game, no Cloak of Reflection. Ugh.
No, what gave me FITS were all those damnable golems in the Elven City. There were just to many of them. They just waltzed through and totally smashed my party, many, many, many times. I finally got fed up and superbuffed my Blade and sent him ahead alone to beat the crap out of them. Somebody would get wompled and lose morale, and, go running off to God knows where, and, then come running back to the party wanting to introduce a half a dozen new friends they had brought back with them. That whole area made me CRAZY! Nearly tore my hair out.
I would have to say Golems are the most irritating enemy, at least to me.
