Most action games have a variety of different enemy types, each with its own sets of strengths and weaknesses. When they all come together in interesting permutations and combinations, it creates a highly dynamic combat system that’s fun to engage with. That’s rarely the case though, as certain enemy types can make even the best encounters annoying to get past for a variety of reasons and factors. To that effect, here are 15 annoying enemy types that you will find in most games.

The one with the shields

While it would make total sense for every enemy to take a guarding shield into battle, most starting-level enemies in games don’t carry them which opens up a ton of opportunities to defeat them. But when certain games do it right from the beginning, it becomes a rather annoying issue. These enemies will  block most frontal attacks, you get extremely restricted in your move set which in turn makes such enemy encounters highly repetitive.
