@@jajasking9652the only thing that comes close to ds1 rats are er frenzy rats, the small ones chilling under the frenzied flame tower in liurnia with the big rat killed me so many times because I got stunlocked and then frenzied 3x in a row, I wasn't happy to see them return in the abyssal woods but I just ran past them because I was terrified of the aged untouchables following me
The real reason why dogs "teleport" is actually even sillier. Anything not on camera in DS3 gets their FPS lowered and model unloaded to preserve memory, and then reset back to normal when near enough. The dogs run and lunge so quickly that they outpace this system, so by the time they are fully loaded back they already reached you.
I don't know how many people remembers this, but for a while after ER release some dogs were bugged out. The blood variant before a patch did a normal amount of damage as any other dog plus build up of course... Per tick. If you don't know what that means, that basically means that one of them could kill you in less than one second, regardless of your health and defense. Laught at Radahn nerf, these guys were the most dangerous enemies on the Soul franchise for entire months.
Remember those, in the ruins where that Magnus dude was later put. I remember 5 days after game release when I was killed by those dogs for the first time. I was like WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED!!!!!!!! 1 minute later It happened back when I came to recover my runes... I failed.
fuck no they weren't fun to fight These fucking nigg_ sharks Just keep spamming u with multiple high hitting spam attacks and the sowrst part when u try to run they do that fucking jump attack that gets u every time cuz of the damn large hit box and thier general super fast movement speed
DS1 Basilisks are AWFUL because if you don’t know to use Bell Gargoyle’s soul drops to get Purging Stones, if you die to them once, you have to go out of the depths on HALF HP and either try to find your way to the guy that can cure Curse in a late game area, or farms souls to buy a Purging Stone. And Curse fills SO quickly in DS1. The rest of the Basilisks aren’t too bad because Curse doesn’t debuff you if you die to it and it goes up slower.
If it makes you feel better, on release, you could stack curses. My sister played around release and went to the catacombs early, got stuck there with 1/16th of her normal HP and stopped playing. I found her save file around 2 years ago when going through our Old Consoles.
It builds crazy fast if you're hollow, which most everyone will be on their first run. You're just guaranteed to get cursed as a noob playing blind, and it's brutal.
Fun fact about frigid outskirt horses: they have a more complex moveset then most bosses in both DS1 and DS2. With a bit more hp and an upscaled model, one of these could have been the area boss.
More dishonorable mentions: -The finger creepers from Elden Ring - Those finger ruins creatures that snipe you from across half the map and stunlock you - Any NPC fight ever. The worst offenders for me personally is the Moonrythill guy at Caste Ensis in the Elden Ring DLC and that one weird NPC boss fight in DS3 Ringed City just before you get to Filanore.
In DS 2 there’s an invader that uses the ring that makes him look friendly and he doesn’t actually attack you until a certain scripted point ay which he backstabs you then emotes over you lmao. And later on he uses the disguise item and hides among a bunch of like barrels or something then attacks you from behind when you run past
That's 2 different invaders. The first one isn't even an invader. Just an npc standing there. He does invade you in Brume tower though and runs into enemies when he hits 40% health or so
Lorewise I agree with you .. but technically speaking , they rapidly shoot small hitboxes in your direction.. I've seen that "attack" in a hitbox analysis vid 😅 sooo yea you're both kinda right
Elden Ring devs literall copied the most annoying enemies (giant rats, dogs, thralls and man-fies) and went like "Hey, imagine if we gave these guys poise and dumped them in every second corner"
My top 15: 15. Lycanthrope - DS3 14. Leydia Pyromancers - DS2 13. Brainsuckers - BB 12. Warhawks - ER 11. Statues from Black Gulch - DS2 10. Assassins alias "Rats" - Sekiro 9. Jailers - DS3 8. Toxic Undeads from the Painted World of Ariamis - DS1 7. Blowdart Snipers - DS1 6. Rats - DS1 5. Palace Nobels - Sekiro 4. Corpse Grub - DS3 3. Unarmed Ghru - DS3 2. Dogs - I would say that they were annoying in all Dark Souls, but they were the most annoying in DS3 so, DS3 1. THE FUCKING THRALLS !!!! - DS3
Those ds1 archers are the most overhated thing ever. I’ve never got hit by an arrow and they just run off the edge to their death. Ds1 dogs tho omfg I’ve lost years off my life because of them.
+++. Especially Blighttown red dogs. They just glitch their bodies into you, you can't even see when they're attacking. They're also extremely aggressive and see you from mile away. Also, imo Blighttown square head guys that shoot toxic at you, are the worst. Should've definitely been included in thos list
If you take your time and stick to the left wall as you enter the castle, the area is super easy. Locking on before they pop out helps to avoid most of it.
I remember trying to fight the red skeleton in shrine of storms trying to get the crescent falchion early on and absolutely getting my ass kicked repeatedly before I said fuck it and ran past him to get the item
You have commited a sin by mentioning basiliks and not talking about DS1. Getting cursed in the Depths repeatedly and having half health because of it is simply iconic
The Amana Priestess' are fairly easily dealth with using a bow though, so I don't mind them so much anymore. There's usually some kind of sniper nest you can find here and there to shoot arrows from where they can't fire back at you too
Man, i don't think i'll ever recover from those damn madmen from bloodborne's chalice dungeons... the ones that have a goofy running animation and screams nonstop
How one perceives the birds depends so much on your build choice. The first time I played ER I used an aggressive claw bleed build with super close range. They were a nightmare to deal with. On the second playthrough once the DLC dropped I went strength + faith and ANNIHILATED them first with the anchor, then with the anvil. The difference in difficulty was shocking.
6:54 it’s called omission mode and what happens is that enemies that aren’t on screen stop having certain frames of their animations loaded to keep them from taking up too much resources. The dogs are incredibly fast to the point where they can jump back into view, but because they’re in omission mode until they appear on screen it looks like they teleported. This affects all enemies. Think of it as the game punishing you for trying to run away from enemy encounters like you were in that clip there.
so many ds1 encounters were really out to get you. as was mentioned , the pinwheels and the anor londo archers but also the rats in undead burg i think had the super narrow hallways or the basilisks cursing you in the depths and having no easy way to cure it. but hey, that's also what makes it memorable
I never had problems with the painting guards. Call it cheese but I always shoot an arrow, waited near a corner, and watched the fool trying to attack me and dying from fall damage
The dogs in darksouls 3 actually don't teleport. They just moved so fast that the reduction framing behind the player camera loses track of their model and has to catch up when they get back in frame
Anything in Bloodborne with a flamethrower type attack. Something about the way it seemingly hits you 100 times in a second just causes your character to kind of freeze up and die before you can do much about it. I' swear I've had fights with Rom that ended because one of his spiders did a web flamethrower on me and gave my character a stroke.
6:52 If I remember correctly they don’t do that on purpose. What is happening is that when you aren‘t looking at them the Game minimizes their animations but they are so fast they Enter your Field of view quicker then their animation can reappear making them teleport in a way.
Some of the worst enemies, dogs, and crows. Then Miyazaki said "ya know what'll really fuck with em? Dog-crows and crow-dogs." Fuckin diabolical that shit.
Just recently played through again, reindeer in ds2 were my least favorite enemy mob. Physical attacks, projectiles, they fly, they appear out of nowhere and you have to fight them because outrunning them to the boss was not an option (at least for me).
If basilisks are included on this list (along with enemies only present in one area), I think that Cursed Ringed City Slaves should be above them, since you can actually dodge the curse buildup attacks from basilisks.
I loved the intro to the birds part. “Let’s talk about birds. Birds are some amazing creatures…” And then it turns sour Lolololololol But I agree. Who thought putting blades on birds was a good idea???? Subbed to your channel too.
The Amana sorcerers getting the respect they deserve. If this was the pre-patch 1.04 nerf, I’d argue they would’ve deserved the top spot. Their projectiles had much better accuracy, and they could target you and fire way past the draw distance of the game. That was some traumatizing stuff.
Bro successfully click baited me into this video with that ring knight in the thumbnail, no way bro is about to put the best regular enemies in the whole series (alongside black knight maybe) in the worst enemies list
@@qwirkt Exactly. Everyone hates Revenants but I legit think they're one of the best designed enemies in Elden Ring. That one showing un in Liurnia had me on edge every time those little faithcaster guys appeared, and I half expected a revenant to follow too. Until I kinda calmed and forgot about them, only to be reminded in the Shaded Castle. They're one of the few ER enemies that doesn't feel like just coincidentally being there, but something that sort of hunts you. Also their lore makes itself into a pretty interesting game mechanic, healing spells being their biggest weakness
The lobsters in elden ring go straight to number 1 for me. Not sure whose idea it was to have lobsters with aim hacks that can hit you from a mile away, but they’re just awful
I think the Dogs in Ds3 "teleport" because they are faster than the player, and enemies out of the fov de-render. the dogs catch up to the player a tiny bit before the model renders in, which makes it seem like they're "teleporting" when they're actually just becoming visible within the player's fov.
Homie didn't mention how many dark souls 1 playthrough were ended by basilisks. I remember being a new player didn't really wanna look stuff up and being cursed that killed the game for me for awhile. This happened to two streamers I know and two other friends. Didn't help when I finally did google it, you have to run halfway across the map to fix it.
I think the og angels had way better tracking with the beams, once you were detected they were almost guaranteed to connect the full spray and oneshot you.
ngl i used to hate runebears but now that the dlc is out i don’t think they’re that bad anymore. revenants have always been my absolute least favorite to fight. i know that they’re extremely weak to healing spells but as someone who usually plays melee builds the revenants are absolute nightmares to fight.
4:15 We have Godrick to thank for that… I also like how they could have taken inspiration from the ice reindeer for the Ancestor Spirit in Elden ring, making it a more enjoyable experience
I’ll maintain that royal revenants are an absolute pushover. Even a basic healing spell will stun them. The lowest faith requirement for a healing spell is 12. So with Godrick’s rune you only need 7 faith, so with the exception of the prisoner which has 6 faith, any class can use heal without putting a single level in faith. Its just hard for me to consider them a real challenge when you can obliterate them with a single spell that almost anyone can use right out of the gate.
2:30 talking about the designs of the imps looking trolly.. Have you noticed that the imps in shadow of the erdtree are the fcking basic cannon and sunflower from plants vs zombies? I think micheal zaki legit thought it would be funny to put a random ass pvz reference into his ultra dark fantasy game😂
I unironically like Shrine of Amana and Firigid Outskirts. Simply because the areas are cool and they have a more creative approach (the shrine not so much)
I actually liked fighting basilisks in Elden Ring. It was interesting to face an enemy that doesn't deal any damage and only attacks by building up deathblight.
Top 10 worst enemies in all of Souls imo: #1. Judicators - DS3 #2. Winter Lanterns - BB #3. Harald Legion Knights - DS3 #4. Royal Revenants - ER #5. Frozen Reindeers - DS2 #6. Jailers - DS3 #7. Shark Men - BB #8. Titanite Demons - DS1 #9. Angels - DS3 #10. Iron Warriors - DS2 Honorable mentions go to: Bone Wheels from DS1, Rampart Hedgehogs from DS2, the Dart Blowers from DS1, all dogs, all rats, all the birds in Elden Ring, and all the Ancient Dragons from Elden Ring.
the ds1 basilisks were something else they were fully concentrated into that one nightmare corridor in the depths that you HAD to go through to get to gaping dragon and dying would half your hp permanently. Also since at that point you wouldn't have the lordvessel you would have to drag your ass ALL the way back to the guy in the belltower near the gargoyles
Damn, you missed the flame salamanders from Dark Souls II. Honestly the ones with melee attacks are the absolute worst, they even have an instant charge attack what will knock over your character and they can just keep doing it over and over.
Idk the name but remember the big infected dog things from ds3 that when you get hit they attach like leeches or worms on you that keep causing bleed? One of my least favorites
Blighttown guys that shoot toxic should've been mentioned
I think that the fact that they don’t respawn keeps them out of the bottom 20
Plus, you don't have to deal with them if you take the way down from Darkroot or with the masterkey.
I think the poison spitting statues in DS2 are way worse.

7:11 I don’t think “tanky” is a word I’d use to describe Brainsuckers, since you can stun them with every single weapon in the game
ngl i used to hate runebears but now that the dlc is out i don’t think they’re that bad anymore. revenants have always been my absolute least favorite to fight. i know that they’re extremely weak to healing spells but as someone who usually plays melee builds the revenants are absolute nightmares to fight.
The Snakes of the forbidden woods in Bloodborne gave me some heebie jeebies too
The angels in ringed city were by far the biggest bs I have ever encountered
4:15 We have Godrick to thank for that…
I also like how they could have taken inspiration from the ice reindeer for the Ancestor Spirit in Elden ring, making it a more enjoyable experience
I’ll maintain that royal revenants are an absolute pushover. Even a basic healing spell will stun them. The lowest faith requirement for a healing spell is 12. So with Godrick’s rune you only need 7 faith, so with the exception of the prisoner which has 6 faith, any class can use heal without putting a single level in faith.
Its just hard for me to consider them a real challenge when you can obliterate them with a single spell that almost anyone can use right out of the gate.
2:30 talking about the designs of the imps looking trolly.. Have you noticed that the imps in shadow of the erdtree are the fcking basic cannon and sunflower from plants vs zombies? I think micheal zaki legit thought it would be funny to put a random ass pvz reference into his ultra dark fantasy game😂
I unironically like Shrine of Amana and Firigid Outskirts. Simply because the areas are cool and they have a more creative approach (the shrine not so much)
I actually liked fighting basilisks in Elden Ring. It was interesting to face an enemy that doesn't deal any damage and only attacks by building up deathblight.
Top 10 worst enemies in all of Souls imo:
#1. Judicators - DS3
#2. Winter Lanterns - BB
#3. Harald Legion Knights - DS3
#4. Royal Revenants - ER
#5. Frozen Reindeers - DS2
#6. Jailers - DS3
#7. Shark Men - BB
#8. Titanite Demons - DS1
#9. Angels - DS3
#10. Iron Warriors - DS2
Honorable mentions go to: Bone Wheels from DS1, Rampart Hedgehogs from DS2, the Dart Blowers from DS1, all dogs, all rats, all the birds in Elden Ring, and all the Ancient Dragons from Elden Ring.
The giants in 5-2 Demons’s soul are really annoying if you don’t have the ring, the mimics in DS3 drive me crazy, crucible knights in ER
i NEED that image from the ringed knight in the thumbnail
Add the Fire Knights from the Elden Ring DLC, the guys in the church district. I died more to them than I did to Messmer
I was there on day 1 Ringed City. People are not exaggerating about how brutal those Angels were.
the ds1 basilisks were something else
they were fully concentrated into that one nightmare corridor in the depths that you HAD to go through to get to gaping dragon and dying would half your hp permanently. Also since at that point you wouldn't have the lordvessel you would have to drag your ass ALL the way back to the guy in the belltower near the gargoyles
Every kind of dogs in souls-like
Just started the video but I know damn well those whale sharks in the fishing hamlet from bloodborne have to be number one
If you have a great shield, or projectile. The smaller enemies are pretty easy to deal with. Still annoying though 👍🏻
Best and most pullable hair in soulsborne next?
that is wild
Damn, you missed the flame salamanders from Dark Souls II. Honestly the ones with melee attacks are the absolute worst, they even have an instant charge attack what will knock over your character and they can just keep doing it over and over.
5:50 Omg I just realized thats the gravity rush ost
Idk the name but remember the big infected dog things from ds3 that when you get hit they attach like leeches or worms on you that keep causing bleed? One of my least favorites
worst are those NPCs that took devs 3 second to design those boring shit in all soulsborne
I have killed one runebear and it was for the larval tear. I haven't fought another since
