I hate the Draugr. At the point in my game literally every single Draugr is a a damned Deathlord that can kill me with 1 (I literally mean ONE) shot with their arrows and the sword wielding ones kill me in 3 or 4 and all have those shouts that send you flying across the room wondering if you are dead or not.

During the final stretch of the game I was literally considering to quit the game entirely. Those damned archers on the wall far above me and the regular foot soldiers would kill me without so much as a scratch on them. Even with 100 sneak, +30% sneak boots and +25% sneak hood and with an invisibility spell with 100 Illusion I was still getting spotted instantly by all the Deathlords in a square mile. It took literally 8 tries just to get inside that damned temple to evade those bastards.

Dragons. Not because I have difficulty fighting them. They're easy as fuck. I hear a noise when I'm adventuring, I think it's a dragon. I spend 3 minutes crouched in a corner, looking for the dragon that isn't there. And then when there finally is a dragon, it flies around like a ***** for 5 minutes before finally landing, taking a few hits, flying off again for 5 minutes, landing, and finally dying. I can't wait until I get dragonrend.

I like fighting trolls and draugr. They're my favourite enemies to fight.

Goddamn mages. Why is it that they can keep shielding against my spells but theirs destroy my wards almost immediately then hammer my health down in seconds? Everything else dies easily enough to fire, lightning, or a sword in the gut.

F**K Dwemer Constructs. I did a huge dungeon on my first character, the upper part being FULL of these bastards. Playing on Expert, every fight was a challenge, even with my companion. I had the tendency just to lure the damn robots into the spinning-blade traps. And those Chaurus and Falmers on the second level! Ugh! One point you enter an open room, and have to fight SEVEN of the guys, at once!

And don't get me started on that giant mini-boss robot at the end. Well, he was really easy, but still! What the hell, man? Robots in MY Skyrim? But still, he dropped some insanely kickass loot. Worst part is, I used around 20 high-level potions going through that dungeon, and I was only about level ~15 or so, which makes getting gold kinda tough.

Now that I'm level 42, the game's a bit broken. I would have said dragons, but with Dragonrend they're ludicrously easy to kill, the dual wielding power attack is crazy.
The only things that have given me trouble recently are groups, most notably triple Snow Trolls and Bears. They will mess you up.

I cannot stand the Chaurus. Friggin' pint sized tanks of rage!
My thoughts exactly. On my first account when I was exploring a friggin huge dwarven city with Aela I got ambushed by two of these and a couple of falmer. Took me about 5 attempts to finally best them and when I finally did I realised they had slaughtered Aela (probably why I still lived). I raged hard.

Can't believe no one has said mudcrabs yet.

Goddamn I hate them. Hiding below ground so all I see is the top of their shelves thinking it some sort of lootable egg/mushroom/sweetroll and then KABLAMMO I got a mudcrab in my face!

Mages. Seriously, fuck mages. They can fuck you up from such a distance before you can even get to them. It gets easier when you develop some resistance to magic and elements, but dear god they are so overpowered.

Trolls. Sure, I can one hit kill 'em now, but earlier levels they'd just heal after every arrow.

Falmer, the sneaky, poisoning bastards. Partly because of how underhanded they are, partly because their caves are usually seemingly small but turn out to be bloody massive.
Bears are horrible too, especially the Snow variety, up until level 30 or so.
I'm an arachnophobe too OP, but for some reason, Skyrim's spiders don't bother me. The ones that size rarely bother me in media. That said, Shelob was horrible.

For me, it's like this:

#1 Frostbite Spiders: I'm a major arachnophobe, so I can't even fight the giant ones while looking directly at them. I have to squint. Ugh.

I... Hhhhhaaaaaate... Spiders... Why did there have to be spiders? And why did they have to weave webs?! I can't stand webs! It's what my nightmares are weaved of! And those ceiling webholes... Those... Ceiling... Webholes! And I had just gotten over my spiderphobia in World of Warcraft, too.

I fucking hate the spiders. Also the Charaus are weird...

Giants are the worst though. They knock me out in one hit.
Just a quick hint for the arachnophobes:
There's a very popular mod out there that turns all spiders in the game into bears.
Only their appearance changes, so it doesn't mess up your game.
Go looking for it at the Skyrim Nexus (just google that).

Trolls were a nightmare early on, as were even small groups of chaurus. One chaurus I could handle, but two or more always gave me a lot of trouble. Now everything dies in one hit and I'm getting bored. I can't decide if I should up the difficulty, level skills I'm not really interested in (like sneak & bows) to increase my level and thus enemy levels, or just start over.

With my current character, none of those are really a threat in any way, but the most annoying enemy by far is still ice mages. They can spam out some serious damage and virtually freeze-lock you in place, which is a royal pain.

if you're on the PC, there is a spiderman mod for that

OT:has to be the saber cats: they attack, go out of your range of sight, you are all disoriented, and they surprise butseks you

Considering I've seen a Giant kick a Blood Dragon's arse, and a Mammoth destroy a Giant with no difficulty, the dragons and giants should probably be removed. Actually, maybe not the Dragons, since the Elder/Ancient could be a huge jump in difficulty (I've not met either yet).

I hate the Chaurus...

Ranged poison attack that drains health and stamina.

Strong melee attack that poisons, draining health and stamina (That stacks with the ranged poison causing health to drop fast)

Very hard to notice melee power attack that does a huge amount of damage.

Most of the time they are in trios so you have to fight 3 at once...

Hmmm no hated for the Wispmother? I hate those damn things. But then again on my newly rolled Thief (Only level 20) I get raped by everything.
Ice Wraiths are annoying as all hell and god forbid I get spotted by a bear, usually a case of "Leg it to the nearest town and yet the guards deal with it!"
