So, its been quite a long time since my last post on here mainly because I have been obsessed with playing Elden Ring, which is an all consuming game time wise!
However since I have been playing the game so much, I figured why not do another top 10 list based on the most annoying enemies in Elden Ring and believe there are plenty of them to be found, so its been tough to try and narrow it down. So, I will split the list into two parts as I usually do with these top 10 lists to avoid the post being too long.
So, with that out the way, let's take a look at these annoying enemies from Elden Ring...
10. Misbegotten
So, at No.10 are the Misbegotten, who are somewhat creepy looking humanoid enemies with wings on their back although some of them can fly whereas others don't but either way they are a real pain to deal with, especially earlier on in the game if you are not leveled up.
And one of the main reasons these guys are annoying is that they can gank you pretty easily if you get overwhelmed by them and there are a ton of them to be found in Morne castle. You also get different variants some of which carry cleavers whereas the stronger variety carry large axes that deal quite a bit of damage. Not to mention there are the ones that fly who will shoot you full of crossbow bolts, which is an infuriating pain in the ass to deal with when you want to escape them.
So, for me the Misbegotten are annoying in their different forms and they are plentiful to be found and that is reason enough for me to put them on the list.
9. Warhawks
Next are the warhawks (pictured above!) who are basically birds that for some unknown reason have swords attached to their claws and with the swords, they can do a lot of damage to you for sure!
And the Warhawks come again in different variants such as the Stormhawks in Stormveil castle, who have the attached swords and they can also pick up explosive barrels to throw at you too! Then there are the other warhawks that can fire pyro spells at you, which is pretty dangerous if you get caught in it.. The warhawks can also be found later in the game in areas such as the Crumbling Farum Azula where they will deal greater damage than earlier on.
So, basically these birds are pretty annoying in how they can quickly attack you and if you are caught by them in numbers, then are in big trouble basically as its hard to fight them off. So, with that said, I think the Warhawks definitely deserve to be on the list.
8. Bleed dogs
So, next we have the bleed dogs, which can be found in places such as Caelid and Altus Plateau and boy these guys really hurt!
So, basically the bleed dogs look pretty much like very average rabid dog with the bloody wounds over them, however unlike their other counterparts, the bleed dogs have one almighty advantage in that they can pull off a devastating bleed damage attack that can literally one-shot, depending on what size your HP bar is (although you might be survive it better with a larger HP).
And I find it quite ridiculous how a small enemy such as a dog has the ability to one-shot players in a game and frankly it just isn't right either that it should be the case! I mean there are bigger enemies in the game that don't even on-shot but these guys certainly do that's for sure again depending on the size of your health.
So, for the one-shot reason alone, I think the bleed dogs definitely deserve to be on the list because there is no way one doggo should do THAT much damage!
7. Fanged imps
So, next up are the fanged imps, who are often found in the catacombs throughout the game and by God they are so annoying to deal with as they hide in the shadows and can ambush you from above or behind.
And what is so annoying about them is they are basically just a reskinned version of one of the most irritating enemies in Dark Souls III, the Thrals, who wore hoods and had the exact same move set and attacks as these guys have! And it is so easy to roam through a catacomb and get ambushed by these little buggers time and time again and there are even areas in the game where you cannot attack them unless they appear in the light!
They also happen to deal some hefty bleed damage with what I am guessing are daggers of some sort although I think some of them have what is called a forked greatsword, which again just so happens to deal bleed damage. Yeah, I think Fromsoft went a bit over the top this time with the bleed damage aspect of the game!
And for me fanged imps definitely belong on here simply because they are re-skinned version of the thrals in DS3 and another enemy we could do without.
6. Albinaurics
So, to close off part 1 of the list are these deeply annoying guys, the Albinaurics, which I had to look up on Fextralife as I wasn't sure what they were and it appears theses are the enemies but the thing is they look quite different from your usual Alby (who typically look more like Slitheen from Doctor Who!). No, these guys instead look like their heads have been turned inside out!
So, if you have played the game then you will likely find this variant of the albinaurics in a few locations, first off in the Volcano Manor area, then Leyndell Capital and later on in Castle Sol. And basically they quickly scamper around on their hands and knees and try to grab and bite you but in doing so they can take a massive chunk off your health bar! The albinaurics however in Volcano Manor don't quite damage you as much as the ones in Sol Castle do because the ones there nearly wipe out your entire HP depending on how much of it you have! Thankfully however there aren't so many of them!
Thankfully these albinauric variants can only be found in the mentioned areas (although they could be elsewhere too!) and the fact they don't even have an official name (that I know of!) makes them all the more annoying also!
So, with that these bitey crawling Albinuarics definitely deserve their spot on the list here at No.6.
Right, so that's it for Part 1 and I will be back soon with Part 2.
Until then, bye for now!
