Poll: Which enemy/enemy type in Skyrim do you hate the most?

Well, I hate the Forsworn, but not because they're tough enemies or something, because they're not. I hate them because they piss me off to no end. They are simply so barbaric! In all their encampments you see evidence of absolutely abhorrent rituals taking place, and these people actually want their own kingdom. Nope. Not while the Dragonborn lives.
As for the enemies I have the most trouble dealing with, any ice mage, since I'm a Dunmer and for some reason have not yet enchanted my armor with any sort of resistances....yeah, not very smart. A strong ice mage spells death for me. Very quick death.
Also, the Falmer in the second-last Thieves Guild mission. They weren't tough, but there were SO MANY of them. Dozens in a single cave. Ridiculous. And the worst part was that there was no way to sneak your way through if you didn't tell your allies to stay back, they are simply the worst sneakers ever. But I have to say that I had a lot of fun there once I decided to go on my own, it's incredibly rewarding to sneak and assassinate the Falmer one by one until the entire cave is cleared and nobody noticed until it was too late...and using that Dwarven Centurion Master as a diversion was also fun, although it died after less than five seconds and didn't kill a single Falmer.
Edit: I just remembered the Draugr. They weren't very annoying until recently, but now every single Draugr is a Scourge. Not fun. Not at all. And the only ones that are not Scourges are Deathlords....

Dragons because they either just fly above me and breathe fire/ice or they land and kill me with one bite. I use two daggers so I can't do much damage to them either.
Draugr but the stronger types with shouts that don't drop your weapon, but catapult them off your hands in the far corner of the big room. You run looking for the weapon he either outright one shoots you with an arrow, or if it dosn't kill you it flings you across the room ragdoll style.
Dragons who breath fire, I've been a Vampire since a relatively low level so frost based mages and frost dragons haven't been a major threat due to my normal resistance of 25-50% Frost reisitance.
The downside to this of course is a 50% weakness to fire based attacks which means certain dragons who are fond of fire will completely mess you up, Alduin is especially guilty of this when he uses both his storm call and breath attacks which are extremely powerful flame based weapons, In all honestly I barely survived his first breath attack in the last battle with him and i'm nearly level 40.

As a fire based mage I laugh at your weakness! Ha ha! ha ha!darron13 said:
I hate those sabre tooth fucking tigers, they come out of no where, you can be just walking along calmly then a giant cat jumps out a bush takes half your health in one hit then chases you, is faster than you and takes about 2% of its health off when you hit it! Needless to say I dont travel by Winterhold anymore.
I'm playing a conjurer at the moment, so doing all my killing with bound weapons. Disarming - not a problem!arnoldthebird said:
Well my Smithing skill is at 100, I have Enchanting at 100 too (both took a very long time...urgh) so I'll slay everything with my Enchanted Daedric Sword's and I get to the end, Draugr boss shout's and my weapons go flying away...frustrating. Dragon's also scare me, casually running through the wilderness, music increases pace, hear Dragon roar, duck for cover.ms_sunlight said:
But I may have to start playing a Conjurer...sure fixes that problem
Bears. Running bare assed through plains of Skyrim while out of nowhere "Aughuuwwrauughhwghrblargh". Fokken hate that sh*t. :|
Probably the Draugr, because there are so bloody many of them, although not even the Deathlords are a problem once even if you're a thief and have upgraded your archery enough to stun them half the time. Also, the effect of their ambush tactics is sort of negated once you have the Aura Whisper shout.
My favourite are probably humans, because when I backstab them I get a sweet animation.

I voted other because the dragon priests really should be in a category of their own. These are eight unique bosses, for those who do not know, that have a great deal of health and throw out frost spells as if there was no mana cost to them. Given that I had practically glitched that game when it came to fighting (Stun fireballs for the win), these where the only things that actually gave me some trouble.
Mostly because I couldn't duck being cover, being all frozen and stuff.

Took time? Smithing? Really?arnoldthebird said:
Iron Daggers and enchant them all, Smithing and Enchanting to 100 in an hour or so.
As a general thing, the draugh. They aren't as much not fun to fight, they just do so much frikkin damage, and always end up being that random humanoid that roflstomps me, that or the forsworn.
I hate them the most because for an OCD person like me it bassicly makes an axe specialized warrior impossible to play, since them, and those random skeletons you rarely see and kill in one swing are immune to bleeds.
The skeletons are no problem, but there are many, many, MANY draugh in the game xD.
