Most annoying monster in GW2

[Billy.1879]

So I've been killing hydras to test different classes and builds and I've really developed a hate for dust mites.

So heres my votes for most annoying mobsSand lionsdust mitessmoke scale +1sI think it's a caustic blade dancerand the lava elementals at barths shrine at sirens cove

[Glider.5792]

1. Jacaranda
2. Dust Mite Twister
3. Every single mob in orr that spams cripple/chill/pull

This is just regarding passing by them, not fighting them.

[Ameepa.6793]

The floating bushes. They aggro from about twice as far as other mobs and keep you in combat forever.

[Tzarakiel.7490]

Scarabs or mordrem snipers. Nothing else even comes close.

[Randulf.7614]

Jacaranda by a long way. They are unnecessarily annoying. Nothing else in the game comes remotely close to their annoyance levelsibogasAwakened - Canids especiallySand lions, scarabs and smokescales

[coso.9173]

veteran canids, HATE them, keep teleporting and CCing me while doing a lot of damage to my thief...

[Phyrak.7260]

Vampire beasts are definitely up there - I very much dislike the point in the HoT map.

Awakened Canids are the same in the cc manner as the vampire beasts.

[Sanity Obscure.6054]

Jacarandas have my vote. Ridiculous 3k+ line-of-sight makes it impossible to just run away.

[Voltekka.2375]

Really? Noone? Harpy spellbreakers

[phs.6089]

Most annoying? Every single trash in Bitterfrost that chills you for near 100 years, lol.But seriously? White mantle in Doric and Bloodstone FenThere was like a booklet made a while ago, among other statistic information it had mob/player kill/dead ratio.The top onece were Stone Djinns and Skelks. I can't find it regrettably

[Samnang.1879]

Subject 6... ppl never know what to do.

[Pirindolo.9427]

Sand lions

Dust mites

Smokescales

LS4 scarabs

Any of the ranged mobs (snipers I believe) in HoT maps with that fire trail that kills you in 1 second

Those big, red lizards with the absurdly overpowered daze

White mantle mesmers in Doric Lake

Any of the harpies in Jahai Bluffs with their machine gun bows or AOEs that kill you in 1 second

HoT AOE-spamming mushrooms

Karkas in Southsun cove that can see you from the other side of the galaxy and are so annoyingly difficult to hit.

[Westenev.5289]

Shadow of the Dragon (ls2 boss)

Spider Queen (kessex hills)

Smokescales. Especially when they attack out of nowhere (it's more surprise than difficulty though)

Any enemy in Caudicus Manor (but especially the dagger ladys and sabos)

[Genesis.8572]

Mordrem Snipers, Blade Dancers, or anything that seemingly gives you perma-blind (dust mites, smokescales, etc.).

[Ayrilana.1396]

Canids are the only ones that I found annoying. Nothing really felt difficult as they all had some form of mechanic to make them easier to kill.

[BunjiKugashira.9754]

Many of the mobs in this thread are a bit more difficult to fight than your average mob. However I don't see difficulty as an annoyance.

The most annoying mob for me is the Jacaranda. It isn't difficult to defeat, it just usually spawns in some bush, attacks from afar and you don't even know where the attack is coming from. The Jacaranda doesn't even look like it aggroed you, it just casually floats there and occasionally strikes you with some attack from above.

[Cat Warrior.9240]

Idk why, but pocket raptors, sand eels and rolling devils don't match up to dredge and skritt. Idk what it is, but I think the most annoying mobs are dredge. I started hating them when mounts didn't exist and I just get annoyed with 'em every time I see 'em....

[thehipone.6812]

As annoying as Jacaranda can be, at least they have counterplay.

My vote goes to Veteran Branded Griffons. aka "I'm gonna fly and evade and there is nothing you can do about it except stand around and wait. OK, I'm landing now, you can get some hits in...haha, kidding...off I go again!"

[Rattengeist.8165]

Surprised no one mentioned that icebrood elemental in bitterfrost that will snipe you from miles away with the attack that turns you into an iceblock so you have to spam the 1 button at least 4 times to break free. This ice attack is like a missilie that will follow you for like 5 k range once fired. You can barely outrun it on a mount. It will follow you UP high into the sky if you use the jumping mushroom to escape. It will even HIT you and STILL freeze you midair before you reach the tree plattform. It's insane!!

Second place for me, Mushroom Chargers. So annoying to hit because they are just running around, spamming that knockback.

Also, Icebrood Kodan that will always start the fight with the extremely fast blade-spin attack half across the field. In one second you are casually walking far away from them, keeping your distance, half second later they spin right into your face so fast that you can't even dodge. What range is this attack even? like 1.2 k ?!

[Dahkeus.8243]

Most annoying to fight:Smokescale

Most annoying to be around:Jacaranda

[Airdive.2613]

Spotted hyena.

[BlueJin.4127]

There are too many for me to list just a few. I don’t think Anet is great at making enemies that are fun to fight against. In general anything that...

Spams CC’s, like the veteran trolls in Bitterfrost Frontier. Bonus points for keeping me chilled/crippled/immobilized for like 10 seconds after the fight is over, preventing me from mounting.Spams the same ground targeted abilities over and over and over and over... resulting in boring fights where the it seems like I’m focused on fighting against the ground, rather than the enemy. Multiple HoT Jungle Vines spamming that fire AOE on the ground and Balthazar at the end of PoF story come to mind.Uses annoying abilities that make the fight last several times longer, like the Bitterfrost griffons that run away with long evade animation.

[phs.6089]

I don't know why you guys find jaracanda annoying it has clear telegraph, all you have to do is walk away.About it doesn't look like it's agrroed, have you ever been attacked by mordrem thrasher in SW?

Those are some great choices.

I have to say I think Smokescale are the worst for me, especially the veterans, though in the later maps of LS 4, the mobs are getting more and more annoying with their conditions.
