What Group do you hate to fight? 

I thought I would throw this question out there. My group I hate the most either in COH or COV is the Circle of Thorns. Those guys are a pain in the butt! (Especially when you run up against one of those earth mages OUCH) I dread every time I have to face off with them. It usually turns into a mess of lost toons and spectral demons knocking me silly.

So what group gives you some heartburn?

On the other side of the coin, I love to knock around Longbow and Crey. I guess maybe because they are the “Law” and being a villain it is fun to thump those guys.

Respectfully
Michael

RE: What Group do you hate to fight? 

Devouring Earth or Freakshow. Oh how I hate the Freaks. I hate the DE because they knock me back. If they dont knock me back they poison, or they hold, or...I could go on forever.

As for the Freaks, they keep getting up. Its just irriatating.

The Arachnos Mu come in a close second. Stupid endurance drain....

RE: What Group do you hate to fight? 

Depends on what type of char I'm using..

If I'm using someone that does smashing/lethal...I hate CoT
If I'm using Energy, I love the Demons of CoT because they're vuln energy. It's easy killing..

Freaks/Council are nice to beat on, but overall I dread LongBow the most. Their Wardens hold/sleep/immo me so much, I've achieved the Slacker badge w/ 2 characters, and almost have the Dazed and confused badge w/ My main Villain..

I really should have taken the resistance to holds etc power w/ my Ninja Stalker.. Oh well..

RE: What Group do you hate to fight? 

I guess that is true. My brute is what I have been using against the COT recently. I have used my level 11 dominator and had some good luck holding and confusing the COT.

I forgot about the Wardens. They can be a real pain. I also understand the frustration of beating down a group of freaks only to have one or two of them Rez with you low on your endurance.

As for the Devouring Earth, Those swarms would drive me nuts!

RE: What Group do you hate to fight? 

I hate red caps and CoT.

Red caps b/c those little buggers are just to many and those damn arrows it seems they can fire out w/out a recharge.

CoT b/c those demons are hard for me 2 kill because i mostly play as a negative energy user and they hit hard as well.

I love DE b/c with a team its always fun and exciting.

RE: What Group do you hate to fight? 

Worst pics:

CoT and Lost, both have a lot of holds/sleep/immob...

Talon Agents and Red Caps, both have high rate of fire with their ranged weapons

And any bad guy that stuns on every shot to knock off your toggles! Damn security guards!

RE: What Group do you hate to fight? 

My main in CoV is a Merc Mastermind...almost ALL of my damage is Lethal type.

So, my least favorite groups to fight are CoT and Longbow. Longbow are INSANELY overpowered. That whole resistance thing is outlandish. Council Robots can be a pain also, but the Vamps and Soldiers aren't a big deal.

Unfortunately I'm at a series of levels where many of my missions are against CoT. (36+)

Re What Group do you hate to fight? 

I have to agree with the masses, the Circle of Thorns use holds at early levels, making them a threat to anyone without a power or toggle that resists Holds. Also, they like to kamikaze on me a lot, as when you try to get them down, they kill themselves, counting as a neutral kill; so if you're badge hunting, INTERRUPT them before they can combust on you!

EDIT #2: Also, the Circle "Daemons" are insane to Controllers. Since they're always in flight, they can resist holds up the wazoo', making powers like Stone Cages, or whichever it is, nearly useless! >.<;

RE: What Group do you hate to fight? 

I hate Longbow Flamers and Nullifiers, get about 4 of these guys together at higher levels and they will mess some minions up. Not to mention haveing the entire screen filled with fire. Not so good on the old AMD XP 1700+.

RE: What Group do you hate to fight? 

Didja ever notice that Nerva Spectrals seem to sluff off most damage from the Robotics MM set? The only redemption that I seem to have had is the Twilight Grasp seems to debuff them enough for the bots to start damaging them seriously.

RE: What Group do you hate to fight? 

I have a new champ. The Red Caps. In the Pocket D mission against Toothbreaker. I have never died so much with my MM. I think those nasty Rascals and Hooligans are just out to get the MMs. They come from all directions and follow you all over the map. Other AT's might have trouble with them but my defenseless mastermind is simply lost.

LOL,

I forgot about the Red Caps. I have not messed with them since COH. They sure were a mess to deal with, especially when they would throw one on your head!

I ran into a succubus last night, I lived long enough to notice it was a succubus.

Succubus. The best part is having a relentless mission with about 7 other people. The Aura mish..there's about 3 succubus' per group. Oh and they are all boss'. 2 Hours later, and 30k debt it was over.

RE: What Group do you hate to fight? 

I dont mind COT as much as some, though they are tough. I dont like the goldbricks/sky raiders, oddly my corr has more aggro problems with these 2 groups than any others. My corr has hardl ever been able to get just 1.

the other is Wyvern, between the nonstop arrow barrage and the stupid amount of damage the bosses do they are rough.

RE: What Group do you hate to fight? 

honestly, i hate to fight any of them. They are all a pain...lol.

CoT for my MM is a little rough at first. However, Scrapyarders I just detest with a passion! They burned my bots at every turn. I couldn't keep them in the fight long enough.

I actually like fighting Freaks and Longbow. They give the best xp IMO, and Freaks rez = double xp :)

RE: What Group do you hate to fight? 

My main toon is a corr and I cant stand the CoT. The Spectral "Daemon" Lords are always orange even on villainous. Holding is for heroes, it just plain sucks. I also can't stand the Abberant Reactors with their Psy powers, i just love running up to get held and then go to sleep and next, good old immobilization so i can restart the whole process over.
