Poll: What is your strategy for you most hated enemy in games?

[Argonian alchemist]

So, we all have those certain enemies, whether it be a type of enemy or a unique individual enemy.

However, those types of threads have been and gone many times...

My question is, how do you deal with your enemy?

For example, my greatest enemy and also greatest pain in the ass are these sweet little things...

I've explained this in many of my posts before... My strategy for them?

Run, hide, send my loyal companion in as a sacrifice while I sprint to the nearest shelter... and if all else fails, kill myself. It will save them time...

The only thing worse than a Cazadore is this...

Beware: the following image may cause intense nightmares among Fallout: New Vegas players.

BEHOLD! The "Caza-Claw"! Or uh... "Death-A-Dore"!

Have fun with those nightmares...

================================================================================================

So, what is your greatest enemy AND how do you deal with it?

EDIT: The poll is glitching up on my screen, seems to be missing a lot of words, if this is the same on your screen then just ignore the poll...

yell "STOP FUCKING RUNNING AND DIE ALREADY!" until the bitches get killed... grrr

or... OR... with pacifist sims from perfect dark (*shudder*) - where they only ever target anyone with a weapon, and then disarm them - beyond the "run backwards away from them, shooting" strategy, which inevitably fails because they run up behind you, just put your gun away until they turn around... then shoot them in the back of the head with a magnum, the uppity bastards

Ewoks in Star Wars Battlefront 2.

My strategy?

Darth Vader.

I fuck their shit up.

This is a bit odd, but my most hated enemy is the Jincilla Skull pirate fighter in Privateer 2. Faster than you, more maneuverable and heavily-armed, they're a pain in the ass, and since you have to clear a nav point in order to leave it, I often carry a nuke-em mine that will practically empty the place of bad guys (and good guys and neutral guys, unfortunately).

Or like I've said before you could get the Old World Blues DLC.

Trust me after playing it the next time you see a cazador you will say...

Oh dear god how could you kill them, I used to love playing as them...

Just running around owning a platoon of heavily armoured soldiers with nothing but a simple wooden spear and glowing rocks that we throw at you... Oh yeah, and whilst howling "AYEEEEEEEH! YEEEEEE-BAAAA-BAAA-YEEEE!" And there was nothing you could do about it since we were 3 feet tall, camouflaged perfectly with the area and moved too fast.

Hmmm, in retrospect... that must of been pretty annoying for the other team. lol.

once in CRTA i defeated a mid boss that i was not geared for by placing a bunch of barels in front of him and shooting him to death with a friend.

that was fun. Does that count as strategy or improvisation?

In SSBB, captain falcon always fucks my shit up. So if i'm randomly placed against him i usually quit and avoid conflict as it's much less depressing than watching him stomp on my face for 3 minutes.

Ugh... I just hate them.. so much..

In a wider retrospect, I just hate the Rebels alltogether. Crushing them with the Empire is fun.

Cazadores have shit (ie no) DT or DR, so low DAM high DPS weapons are your friends against Cazadores. My personal favourite is a flamer with extended tanks, although I suppose a minigun or similar would do just as well.

Spoiler

OT: I got totally freaked out (and killed) by my first encounter with a Radscorpion Queen, but developed the following tactic to deal with such extreme situations - a Hunting Shotgun with extended barrel and choke combined with the Shotgun Surgeon perk. Works wonders against most things that like to get up close. Unsurprisingly.

The last Shao Kahn battle in the latest Mortal Kombat. It's ridiculous! He cheaply charges across the screen and it only takes about 6 or 7 hits before you die.

The only strategy (because you have to play as Raiden) is constantly teleport behind him and try the uppercut and keep holding off until the timer runs out. The only way I beat him is because I had slightly more energy than him in both rounds but it took me forever to do! I've never pressed up, down, up, down so frantically in my life!

BY the time they see me coming bullets will have started flying, bombs will have started flying and exploding and sh** will have it the fan.
Im a walking silent sh**storm that you wont notice till its to late.

 

[electric_warrior]

I hate cazadors. the first i saw one I thought it was a harmless bug enemy, like a bloatfly, and decided to casually kill it and be on my way

Big mistake

OT: my tactic for my most hated enemies, which are probably clannfears, is to just run backwards and fire spells off at it

 

[EarndilTheEqualizer]

Clan Mechs in Mechcommander, specifically Madcats, I mean 5 LRM racks? fuckthatnoise.jpg
best way to deal with them, look for fuel tanks, use one of your lighter mechs as bait, and blow up the fuel tank. Even if the tanks don't blow it up, you still have your heavier hitting mechs to mop up.

 

[BanicRhys]

Plan it out and take it slow is my general approach.

My greatest enemy at the moment would probably be those black phantom mind flayer thingos in world 3 of Demon's Souls. I generally buff myself, launch a couple of fire spells at them and run away. I'll repeat that until they die.

 

[Torrasque]

Quickscopers in MW2: I flashbang em, flank em, or out-think em.
They're all 12 year old kids anyways, so its just a matter of using your noggin.
One Man Army - Danger Close fags are a different matter though.
Their lethal radius for anything they do is ridiculous, so its just a matter of getting in close where they don't think you can be, and killing them quickly.

Cazadors..I snipe thier anttena from a long distance and hope they frenzy and attack each other. If that fails I shoot them in the face. But I hate them SO SO MUCH. I think it's because if they catch up with me the game takes it upon itself to do that stinging noise really really loud. Stupid giant wasps.

I tend to be quite a sneaky *****. I took out a full camp of deathclaws by climbing up as high as I could and taking out thier legs, they didn't get anywhere near me.

Yeah sneaking is fun

Looking forward to Skyrim.
