Paragon Protectors. Not because they’re hard to beat but because their MOG lasts too long. Not fun just standing around twiddling your thumbs until their MOG runs out. 

 

The "Radiation Defender" Paragon Protector Elite variant is also bad news for a different reason, especially if they are +5 to you.  Say goodbye to 46% resist when they drop Enervating Field on you (and anybody near you).  And oh, none of that "resistance resists resistance debuffs" stuff either because it's unresistable.  Minus 46%.  No exceptions.

 

There are various Tar Patch using enemies that can do the same thing, but not all of them.  Thankfully, not the one the Neu CoT use.

That’s just not fair! My dark defender’s Tar Patch can only do -30% resist and,  as far as I know, there’s nothing I can do to increase that number. Blah.

I think the ones that I find most irritating are the illusionists and master illusionists.  You have to hit them before they phase out or else wait until they phase back in to dmg them.  Also, they're summoning those stupid, irritating phantom dudes that are basically unhittable and also (hatefully) stick around well after you've killed the illusionist.  Extremely annoying.

Those are probably my most hated enemy so far as mobs are concerned.

The 46% is for an enemy that is +5 to you, which can happen in a +4 mission difficulty.  The unresistable part, however, IS unfair.  Players don't get that.  And some other NPCs don't either.  It's weird.  Like a bug they decided not to fix because the occasional dose of kryptonite can be interesting?

I realize that almost no one goes to the Shadow Shard but Soldiers of Rularu Watchers, Observers and Overseers refuse to accept that Defense is a thing. They cut right through your pricey defense enhancements like they aren't even there and start picking you apart, piece by piece.

 

Nemesis Guys who start shooting at you from extreme range from who knows where the minute you enter a room or map section, while their buddies keep you busy.

 

and I historically hate Sappers...especially the flying ones....

Those Nemesis are typed as snipers, so high perception and range.

Any enemy that has a chance of resurrecting after they die. The Feakshow are a good example of this.

For me, it's Rikti Comms Officers. Specifically the pointless, XP-less Conscripts they summon!

Ruin mages all day long

 

able to chain stun hold immobilize with high mag abilities that cant be avoided add in earthquake for massive slows and knockdowns and oh yeah they have a SHIELD which boosts their defense through the roof and lets not forget thats just ONE of them they sometimes come in 2-3 per mob which stacks everything

Also, the Freakshow who are defeated and then come back to life.
