* GodDamnBats: There were a couple...
** Claws in the Ruins. Not particularly dangerous, but they were difficult to hit thanks to their "floaty" movement and they did an excellent job of getting in the way of attacks meant for more dangerous baddies.
** Dark Gunners, also in the Ruins. They had extended periods of invincibility, only interrupted by brief periods of vulnerability, they moved quickly across the room and could hit you from pretty much anywhere with their laser shots. Forces, at least, could reliably take them down with techs.
** Gibbons in Episode II. Though generally not dangerous, even in numbers, they could use Gizonde at range, giving them the ability to inflict Shock on players, and their high EVP and movement pattern made them tremendously annoying to hit, especially for meleeists.

*** Dark Falz's third form was a nightmare for android players, particularly [=HUcasts=] and [=HUcaseals=]. He [[TeleportSpam jumps around the arena]], rarely sticking in melee range for long, and flickers between semi-invulnerability (he's still vulnerable to techs - which androids don't have - and weapon specials) and vulnerability every 5 seconds or so. Since android hunters lack any weapon that has a range longer than a handgun (and aren't particularly accurate with ranged weapons either), this made damaging him extremely difficult. Add into this that Dark Falz is a MarathonBoss and androids have limited capability to heal themselves, and it basically meant that androids often had to be 5-10 levels higher than anyone else before they could solo Falz and move onto the next difficulty.

* DemonicSpiders: The game had tonnes in Ultimate Difficulty:
** Ob Lillies. They spawn in large numbers and spit an instant death spell. Oh, and they use an undodgeable paralysis area attack when damaged.
** Sinnows, of all flavours. Combined strong attacks with buffs, heal spells, TeleportSpam, invisibility, and/or freeze attacks. Even worse, thanks to their [[DynamicEntry hideously damaging leap attacks]], Forces and Rangers can't fight them effectively at range.
** Garanz/Baranz: Basically MacrossMissileMassacre in enemy form. When playing online, without the benefit of MercyInvincibility, every attack from these things is basically an undodgeable OneHitKill. Facing two in a single room virtually requires someone in the party who can freeze; three or more virtually guarantees at least one player death and at least a 50% chance of a total party kill. Arguably the most dangerous enemy in the game (online, at least...)
** Chaos Bringer/Dark Bringer: Lots of HP, hard-hitting attacks, a brutal [[DynamicEntry charge attack]], and reacts to being hit by draining your TP, then using it to blast you with a horribly strong ranged attack.
** Indi Belras: Fast, hard-hitting ranged attacks with unlimited range, immunity to flinching, and the ability to paralyze in close.
** All of the Episode II mini-bosses to a degree, but the Mericarol/Merickle/Mericius enemies take the cake. At range they spit out an unblockable OneHitKill orb (and, unlike other OneHitKill methods in the series, it isn't based on Dark tech, so raising EDK does nothing). In close it would swipe at you with its claws and if you hit back, it would unleash ''another'' OneHitKill attack that took out anything in contact with it. Virtually the only way to kill it without dying involved freezing it.
** Ill Gills. They're faster than you, they can root you to the ground, and their scythes will absolutely destroy you (and, of course, they have a OneHitKill attack, because why not?)
** The Seabed is pretty much inhabited only by DemonicSpiders [[MyFriendsAndZoidberg and Recoboxes]]. To whit, we have:
*** The Delbiter: Strong, fast, attacks up close and at range, will [[DynamicEntry charge at you if given the slightest provocation]], can confuse with its scream.
*** Morphos: Invincible from the front, shoots a beam that is all but guaranteed to knock the player down and pin them in place
*** Deldepth: Races around the floor impossibly fast (during which time it's invincible), and will rise up only to spit (say it with me) OneHitKill attacks (or toss the occasional freeze bomb).

* GameBreaker: The Spread Needle, which is either one of the most loved or [[TierInducedScrappy most hated]] weapons in the game. Which one it is depends on whether or not you had one. As a weapon with the range of a mechgun but with the capability of hitting up to five enemies at once, it can clear out entire rooms of enemies, even on higher difficulty levels, in absolutely no time at all, and could be used by any class, even melee classes that had no business wielding one (though this was changed in later versions of the game). The reason it's so hated is because the game's experience system would only grant shared experience for a kill if a player actually hit the enemy. Since Spread Needles could (and often did) clear out entire rooms before anyone had even a chance to get a hit off, the result would often be the guy with the Spread Needle getting ALL of the experience. Needless to say, pulling out a Spread Needle is a very good way to make enemies.

* {{Narm}}: In the quest, ''Seat of the Heart'', [[spoiler: Elly Person's insistence that Calus is "human"]] can seem like this for a few people, especially those who are more pragmatic.
* NightmareFuel: The final boss starts off in an open meadow with an obelisk. Once you get near it, look at the floor.
