What little creature (i.e. weakling) do you find most annoying? - Page 2

SixOfSpades · 04-12-2004, 02:23 PM

Personally, I find Bards pretty annoying. They're small and no good at fighting, but they're noisy as heck and you don't get a single EXP point for killing either one of them. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Did anyone mention kobolds?

But then again - you have to kill them to be able to eat them - (ever tried to barbecue a live kobold?).

Most annoying creature? Hobglobins, of course. There's so many of them, sometimes they can poison you (just plain annoying), they have ranged weapons, and have such few HP as well. It's annoying blasting out a fireball everytime I see one of them. I consider them a waste of my time.

No, I think they do carry Arrows of Biting, but only two of them. So if you manage to kill one before they shoot at you twice, you'll find those two arrows among the loot. It's the same with Kobold Commandos and Fire Arrows, really. Speaking of which, I concur with everyone who named Kobold Commandos. They are SO annoying in the Firewine Ruins!
Xvarts get an honorary mention for that incredibly irritating war cry of theirs.

What makes Firewine ruins so bad is less the enemy and more the environment. The corridors are so narrow it throws off the (already bad) pathfinding, and the respawn rate is set ridiculously high (I hate the way they just spawn out of nowhere, right in plain sight of you). I had a thread a while back about most irritating area, and that was the area I put forward as the one I find most irritating.

However, if you just take kobold commandos in more normal circumstances (ex. Nashkel mines), then their arrows hurt, but overall they are not too bad. However, I do agree that they are ridiculously undervalued compared to the damage they can do. Same with those hobgoblin elites; their poison really ticks me off.

Regular kobolds aren't so bad, especially the ones without missile weapons. I can usually take one out with one shot. However, only getting 7 xp from them is pretty pathetic.

I think that overall, I hate getting jumped by weenie creatures, especially at higher levels. I just think "why am I having to waste my time with these guys". Waste of time, ammo, and/or resources.
