You may remember me from my last post, the "Most Overpowered 5 Star Weapon." Well, I'm back with a new question to discuss: What is the most annoying, hated and overpowered monster in the whole clockworks. NOTE THAT BOSSES AND MINIBOSSES DON'T COUNT.
This is what you are asked to post:

-The name of the monster (You can name multiple.)
-Why it's annoying
-If there is any good armor or weapons to counter it (optional)

Have fun!! ;)

Most powerful monster

Lag

How many Vanaduke runs have been ruined by it?
How many fiends have gotten the upper hand?
How many accidental slips onto a spike plates?
It even rears it's server clearing head during PvP, at least rock Jelly and the Frost Puppy are courteous enough to give warning when they attack.

GREMLINS!

i hate gremlins

before a ton of nerfs, there were many annoying monsters, but i could still attack those
gremlins with their freakin shields and stuff just make me angry :0

the gremlins, that dont have a hack junk cheat shield are a joke seriously

i avoid gremlins

in this regard, i should probably mention those kats from candlestick keep too. i cannot attack them, it makes me angry, i avoid them as well

Most powerful monster after Lag

The Swarm

-Why it's annoying
It's in cahoots with the almighty lag, making Shadow Lair's a torture.

-If there is any good armor or weapons to counter it (optional)
The only way to defeat swarm+lag is with more lag. So Nitrome.

Devillites.

The usual ones are bad enough, with a barrage of junk that depletes shields & health in no time.
The Overclocked ones dodge like a Wolver on Steroids, and hit even harder.

The Shock ones are worse of any...
Mainly due to personal PoV seeing as I don Heavenly iron...

Those little mini-slimes in

Those little mini-slimes in compounds. Aside from not seeming to take as much knockback
as other monsters, they also don't seem to ever flinch, they have pretty much spot-on homing,
no windup time, and that high-pitched "Shthlorp" noise that they make when they enter attack
mode is downright obnoxious (especially with 40 of them all making it at the same time). They
also just look plain old annoying, waving their little spikes around. The whole thing brings
about the image of some annoying "I'm so hard" gangsta wannabe kid who thinks he looks
genuinely cool and menacing walking around squinting like a naked mole rat and mumbling
"Motha f**ka" at anything that moves for no discernable reason.

Gremlin Mortafires.

1. You cant damage them from the front
2. They always try to face you
3. They shoot rockets that you dont pay attention to
4. They always back themselves into corners which essentially makes them invincible
5. THERES SO MANY OF THEM

And there isnt even a good weapon to fight them with. Its just wait for them to turn around, and hope to god you knock their armor off.

Impostocube.

-Why it's annoying

It smirks at me and steals my sun shards.

-If there is any good armor or weapons to counter it (optional)

No. No amount of pain, or chroma armor, or shadow damage, or writing junk on a forum will solve it.

That's not the real Impostocube, it's an impostor. Only impostors ever dress up as the Impostocube, the real Impostocube is always imposteronating some one else. I've only seen the real one once, at least knowingly: it was here the winter before last, impersonating the Impostoclaus for a little while after the real Impostoclaus left. (Most peops didn't seem to notice the switch, even after some one at Spiral HQ accidentally leaked that Impostoclaus had already left.)

Spam Shivermists to Freeze them, they always drop their Mortar and shield that way. As an added bonus, because it can't move it won't be able to grab its Mortar right away.

I found this out by chance at OCH when I swapped out my DR for Shiver because they're so annoying to kill. I have a feeling any status affliction will make it drop its equipment but Freeze is the best choice for obvious reasons.
