The Falmer and their poison weapons of doom. Lower ranked ones aren't all that bad, but one hit from the high leveled ones- frget the name - and I'm running for my life. Same is true for their damn pets, though those are a bit easier to dodge.

The frostbite spiders are the worst for me with the Giant and then the Falmer

The frostbite spiders hit me with my Arachnophobia, to me they look like someone took the scariest parts of a spider, put them all on one body then made it giant. They aren't a problem anymore but I will absolutely go out of my way to end every Frostbite spider within sight. Preferably with a Dual Cast Fireball while yelling "Hadouken".

Giants...After my first encounter (and subsequent joining of the Skyrim Space Program) with the tall gits, I could never bring myself to get upclose and personal with a Giant...And I'm a Mage/Warrior so there goes half my competence.

Falmer. Falmer just get on my nerves. All must die.

Bears have been my most consistently hated enemy, simply because they wouldn't leave me the bloody hell alone. Granted, once I jumped from Epic Elven Armor to Legendary Dragonscale Armor, they don't pose the threat they used to, so my rage against them has since decreased. Mages (especially Ice Mages) are a pain in the ass, but as long as I chug some Resist Frost potions, I can endure them.

Frostbite Spiders just gross me out; I always feel compelled to fight them in third person, but they aren't too tough. As for Chaurus, I've only faced two and that's when I was still wearing leather armor; with how quickly they took me down, I've developed less "hate" and more "fear."

What I truly, utterly hate is none of these things. It is neither giants, dragons, draugr, or even dwarven constructs. It is... well, let me tell you the story. I wish I was taking screenshots back then, because it deserved it. I'm about Level 12 or so and Aela gives me a Companion quest... some pest control; wild animal got in somebody's house and I had to clear it out. What creature and where? Why, Hod and Gerder's tiny little house in Riverwood. Their problem: a fucking Snowy Sabre Cat! Every time I entered that door, I had to dive left to avoid sharing poor Stump's fate. Me, with just leather armor and a slightly improved steel axe, had to take on a beast that could kill me in three blows, all within a cramped arena with nothing to fight behind. It took about fifteen tries, but I finally managed to kill the bastard.

And that's why I fucking hate Snowy Sabre Cats. I feel it is justified.

Yeah, those extermination quests can suck at lower levels, especially with Sabre Cats of any type. Hell, any forced close range fight sucks when you're a ranged specialist. I just pull out Mehrune's Razor and hope the instant death ability triggers.

let my answer by Type of Dungeon:
the one crawling with Falmers and Chaurii. Ugh.

Spiders could possibly be my favourite.

Hagravens; dragon priests; anything that can cast fireball over and over is worth my hate.

Well Dragons are definitely the hardest because my current character uses exclusively two handed weapons so unless they land I can't touch them except with shouts. Though they are very rewarding to kill, so I'll go with wolves because they are just annoying.

For the longest time, it was those damn Dragon Priests, hovering around the mountain tops. They'd easily dodge my arrows and would float away when I tried to close in for melee. Now that my Bosmer is level 64, nothing really hurts him anymore.

I picked trolls solely because of the frost troll on the path to the throat of the world. Fuck that guy. But then I remembered the ice wraiths. Fuck them too. I can't ever fucking see them on the white snow backdrop when I get into melee range.

Mages. Most of the time they are fine but every now and then you come across one that just obliterates you in several shots. And they are NEVER alone.

Mud crabs. They don't look like mudcrabs and they pretend to be rocks.

It's annoying.

Going by what I get killed by most often, it must be general humanoids. I rarely have a problem handling dragons, giants, zombies, or anything else, with dragons way down at the bottom of the list. In fact, for the longest time, dragons were the one thing in Skyrim that hadn't managed to kill me. [small]Well, I don't remember ever being killed by wolves or skeevers, but I'd have to be AFK for those to kill me...[/small]

I used to find giants scary, since they can one-shot you if you let them get close. Solution? Don't let them. Bow sneak crits work wonders on them.

However, what I really hate is Ice Wraiths, Wisps, Magic Anomalies, and anything else using that model. I have a hard time hitting the fuckers.

Whichever one of those bastards keeps shooting icicles in my heart. Hate 'em with the fire of a thousand suns.
