Kreetles are the scourge of Tat! Nothing worse than wandering over a hill as a newb straight into a kreetle lair. I despise them.

No kreetle can escape my wrath. I shoot them for sport at a distance. I engage them point blank if their in my path. I destroy lair after lair hoping to spare other newbs from the torture of being surrounded by this insect. I don't even harvest them at times when I'm in the 'blood fever' of killing for the sake of killing. They are weak compared to me now. They must die. It is the Trandoshan way.

The OverKreetle presents a new threat. A few of these vermin are a challenge. The Kreetle has adapted. It is beginning to match my strength. I must develop my prowess further, gain a distinct advantage. This new breed of contemptible creature must be eradicated. I will train my body and focus my mind to rid my home of this plague.

Die Kreetle...die.

Yp,

This is one of the best threads I have read in a while, thank you!

For me it was also Shaupauts on Naboo. Our PA built our guild hall out in the middle of what seemed to me nowhere ( seems much shorter now) and Id have to run quite a way from Keren. Then the music would hit....

I'd be moving my mouse like crazy trying to see what caused it and then BAM...Greater Shaupauts and Rabid Shaupauts all over me. I finally was given a house after making some progress, and guess what spawned on my front porch.......:shiver:

They still have me on a high dosage of Muon Gold to counter the trauma.......

Has to be mainly tusk cats myself... yea, with my spraystick out i can setup a camp in their vicinity and go about reading emails and such and come back only to find a couple of corpses of them around me and my camp disbanded, but when I'm paying attention they still trigger some innate reaction. Woe is the tusk cat who attacks when I have out my petikopi guarding me that I tamed as novice CH for sure, no matter how wounded I am.

Its the corellian Butterflies that are the killers!

My first day Im just happily running along and I see an unguarded lair, so I think, fun xp, then I see the butterfly... I go "wow nice animal", but noooooooo, it has to call all of its friends too, suddenly wham wham wham! Im out cold.

All Butterflies must die!

and alot of kreetle as well

YP, you are not alone. It was Vynocks and Gurrcats for me, they haunted my dreams after I tried to take down a few lairs with my shiny new CDEF pistol.

Now I go out of my way to slay Vynocks. I think that all the Camps I built from Scout 1 thru Ranger 1 have used Vynock bits. Revenge is very sweet.

I had a unpleasant meeting with a kreetle lair too on my first day of playing and they haven't really been a problem again since I got some skills.

Howevera few weeks ago justthey had just put in those Overkreetles. I was happily shooting a kreetle lair as I ran past one as I always used to do. To my big surprise the moment the lair popped 4 overkreetles spawned together with 3 "death kreetles". I had no burst run upand I died, how emberassing. I've neverseen those "death kreetles" again, size between normal and a overkreetle.

Looking back it was pretty ironic, I felt invincible against kreetles and I was humiliated by their big brothers.

I have a fine list of creatures that I avoid at all costs.

Any Krevol, from novice scout days and early CH Days.

Tusk Cats (Plains Hunters -> Domestic Tusk Cats) I can't even count how many times I would me strolling along and Poof (My arch Nemisis) and the ever elusive Chuba.

YP,

You really don't need get fear. This is only a game, the killer Eopies and thebloodthirst Zucca boars are only a figment of your imagination...

You really don't need fear that Giant Kimogila that is behind you now!

Vynocks. UGH. My first day playing, I decided to hit a vynock nest. I didn't yet learn to target multiple targets effectively.

That's funny, Ikoru, it was Vynocks for me, too. I had a mission to take out a lair. I was a dopey noob so I ran out to my waypoint, saw Paralopes and started getting my butt whooped. Two incaps in, I finally realized my target was the other lair on the hill, Vynocks. Day turned into night turned into day while I tried to figure everything out as the Vynocks dropped me over and over and over.

I still remember thinking "Wow, I picked something tough. I'm not going near these things anymore!

i hated skyks (maybewrong spelling)

they live on tatooine, are aggro and bafs ^^ - one day they had a lair right in front of our public house, do i have to say more?

nowadays i love to draw explorer missions with skyks where i even get paid for it to kill 45 of these little bastards

1) Bunnies...hate them, but they area necessary evil to get herb meat easily. If I don't pay attention when killing a herd of them, I still get incapped occasionally (crazed durni..hehehe).

2) I have a great fear of anything social...I kill tortons, sharnaff, fambaa..but if something is social, I won't touch it (level doesn't matter). The worst part is findind a new creature and LEARNING that it is social.

ROBAS!!!!! For the love of God, stay away from there! There are ROBAS over there!!!!

I grew up on Tattooine and it is Rills for me, those suckes came after me with a passion, and i couldnt even out run them. Now I never even slow down 1 shot from a scout blaster and harvest bristley hide on the run.

HeHe, good post.
