My favourite bad guy has to be Irenicus. I just love the way he speaks and his power. I love mages, and he is one outstanding wizard.

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.

The most annoying opponets isn't neccesarily the toughest...but rather the weakest. Some lv 9 fighter encounters your lvl 20 party and tells you that he will crush you like a bug with his +1 short sword...

Thanks for wasting my time...

I felt that way with my Evil Stormlord Halfling when those stupid Paladins kept coming time after time trying to put an end to my villiany. Made me nuts. If they failed the first time, what makes them think they will win next time? Or the Cowled Ones trying to do the same thing. Like little buzzing flies.

Ehh, I'd say the most royal pain in the butt are... flayers. It's a pain because there's little to no way to protect yourself from them unless you strike and strike quickly.

In ToB? I'm gonna say Firegiants. They're so big and ugly, it makes them even harder to kill. Plus they got the big clubs that'll knock you on yer butt in no time flat.

My first time through SoA (as a stalker [img]smile.gif[/img] ) i ran into the shadow dragon, not even knowing that there WAS a shadow dragon i was just amazed, i was level 9 i might add, i spent an hour figuring out ways to kill the dragon using the abilities, spells, weapon abilities and other strategies. It was the most fun i ever had playing SoA, but that's beside the point
Actually, the same happened to me up until

"i spent an hour figuring out ways ... "

The first spell I ever cast on a dragon was "Disintegrate". MR didn't help, the dragon failed it's save, and i was convinced dragons were easy. I wiped dragon-dust off my sleeves and waltzed around for a while, encountering Firky when i was a few levels higher. I cast "Disintegrate", he cast "Dragon Breath".

He did not die.

I did.

Talk about first impressions
