I imagine existing since mine doesnt.

...

but a friend asked me to makea character on his game, so i did, and three hours later i got a call from him saying my character couldnt cast for shit. Then again, he's built to be a really crappy glass cannon tank so that was kinda obvious to me.

Fast melee bosses who are immune to paralyze, everything else is managable even with the gimp that is destruction.

My Skyrim character is a bibliophile. I have to take every single book I find, because I may read them "later."

My first character was a mage and he had absolutely no sustainability since I didn't bother with alchemy. Even with all of the best mana recharge in the game, you're pretty limited in how many spells you can sling out before you're running away from the orc with the sword waiting for the little bar to go back up. This also meant that I tended to just keep using the apprentice spells even after getting all of the better ones - having Impact meant that a low mana cost was much more important than a good mana/damage ratio (the difference between hoping you kill them before you run out of mana and killing them more slowly while they can't move).

On my current character, a sneaky assassin, he fares pretty poorly if he can't get the jump on an enemy.

Mages and Draugr Deathlords, and Frost Trolls, and Dragon Priests.

When I make a mage character im going to totally use a resurrection spell on a few of these and shout them off of cliffs

Fucking frost casters. Especially the ones that hit me with that icicle thing and make me run at like 5% speed. By this point in the game, it takes an Ancient Dragon for me to so much as notice incoming damage, so it's not that bad, but it drives me crazy when they hit me with a fucking icicle then continue to run away at normal speed while I'm unable to catch them.

My x30 stealth damage assassin only fears when the one controlling her screws up and forces her into fights rahter than sneaking and stealth killing everyone.

I like that as a stealth character I fear combat unless I initiate it on my terms.

My mage is easily distracted... he forgot about saving the world from dragons a LONG time ago.

He's a Vampire - So he's weak to Fire and takes some pretty bad Penalties in Day light - but beyond that he kicks ass - Highly Upgraded and Enchanted Light Armor, Mask, Sword, Dagger, Bow. He's currently at Level 33.

Because I`m playing an assassin/mage I`m gonna say any battle that stretches out for a while or until I run out of mana and have to resort to hiding behind a wall until I regenerate enough.

combination mobs. I can take down a fort of necromancers because I know what I need to worry about, fire spells dealing damage, and frost spells slowing me down. But when they toss under ground dwemer ruin lurkers, giant spiders, and traps into the mix? I start having issues. Mind you, my shield can stop arrows, most physical damage, and a good portion of magic, as well as dealing quite a bit of damage and stumbling, but the shield can only protection one area at a time. If I get swarmed by too many bad guys, especially ones with poison, I will die. Good thing I've got unrelenting force. I think its the most useful shout in the game.

Bears/Frost Trolls.

I can take down a blood dragon alone, on a mountain, with no help and I still get raped by bears and trolls.

Pretty much this. My character's greatest weakness, and the single greatest threat to the entire world.... A.D.D.

Well I'm currently a lvl. 28 Nord warrior so I would say magic. Though its been less of a hassle to kill mages recently since I can now negate half of their elemental spell damage with my shield.

3 mages ganging up on me.Since I'm using a 2 handed axe,if I swing and miss,they can get at least one more spells in because I can swing again.One mage I can handle easily,two and it starts to get messy,three and I have no room for error.Every swing must be a perfectly placed running power-attack critical.

Also one boss in particular:
When assembling the Gauldur amulet,and you have to fight one of the three bosses.The one that splits into three.Since I suck with bows and magic,I have to run to the different plateforms to get a swing off,so unless I get lucky,I can only get a single swing in,making it a LONG fight

What a *****.
