Genshin Enemy Tier List: What is the Worst Enemy?

Okay I did forget one common Abyss enemy, Hydro Mimics. Mimics can probably go down in D. I'm not big on death rattles, particularly ones that are a giant nuke and the flying birds suck.

Easy: The Weapon Banner is the worst enemy in Genshin.

consacrated beasts are fine on their own, but when you have 2 of them, like a pyro and an electro that's a completely different story

Honestly the "enhanced" Eremites deserve better than to be lumped in with the normal ones. The Floral Ring Dancer is 5* enemy if there ever was one (ok I'm a little down bad)

I still feel betrayed that we got to know the hydro fantasms as cute friendly summertime amusement park buddies and then they became evil and tanky in Fontaine TT

Fun fact: The electro abyss lector is voiced in English by the voice actor for Gorou

My biggest problem with Rifthounds is that they can apply their bleed status on you while you're stuck in your burst animation, which just seems really unfair when bursts are i-frames for everything else in the game.

remember when the nobushi had immunity to grouping?

It’s kind of a head scratcher how Neuvie, the hydro sovereign with a complete mastery of water that can make it rain backwards, is utterly powerless against a tiny hydro slime. In actuality , he should be able to pull apart every one of their molecules apart and vaporize them with a single thought. 😅

It's worth mentioning that the Fungi give different materials for different elements used to defeat them, which really takes them a couple tiers down for me.

I would say the bigger eremites didn't deserve to be lumped with the regular eremites. They have top-tier design and interesting combat mechanics.

11:09 The pain of these guys rolling around as you watch your timer tick down in the abyss was a painful experience.

Imagine you use Ayaka's burst right next to a cicin mage and she just throws it to a little cicin that just happened to fly closer to you when you press the button That was me once

I had never seen the Fatui Pyro Agent's clone attack until I played the tcg and saw the burst there. Thought it was cool and decided to toy with a Pyro Agent in the overworld to see if I could see the actual attack and sure enough, it was there.

Mirror maidens would be way less annoying if their health bar was the same size as other elite enemies. The amount of times i was trying to kill a mirror maiden with a single pixel of hp with normals to save my cooldowns for the next wave/chamber only to waste like 10 seconds and restart is insane

The main three issues with constipated beasts are: a) stagger, fighting enemies that stagger you to death is NOT FUN b) hitboxes, their clunky big hitboxes that you can get stuck on when the fucker is dead already 0/10 c) refuses to group; they are too heavy to be grouped by anemo’s CC abilities, but their AI also makes them almost impossible to group and keep grouped by manipulating it. Also, several enemies that deserve a special mention on WHY ARE YOU THIS ANNOYING list: - pyro gunners, no one likes you jumping around and ungrouping you little shit - melee heralds, screw them and them dashing around and ungrouping and being annoying af - rifthounds, the big ones — WHY ARE YOU JUST HOVERING THERE DOING ABSOLUTELY NOTHING - the construction mecs, the anemo rollers have a bad case of ungroupable enemies with zoomies, big crane is annoying af with his spinning attack and just rolling past you 0/10 - kairagi. Just why. Why do you have to be so goddamn annoying, hard to group and have health retrival mechanic STOP BEING CRINGE - abyss mages WITH THORNS, I’m sorry but why do you HAVE TO apply element to me when I hit you???? - ruin crabs, shields are not fun

A cool thing I noticed, but it would require Sumeru's enemis to be counted as 1 whole, is all the animals you encounter(Vulture, crocodile, serpent, scorpion and tiger) all appear as an elite consecrated beast or summoned by the elite eremites as mechanical versions, it's nice how consistent they kept the wild life ^^

i think the consecrated beasts are well-designed enemies! fighting one-on-one with them has the perfect level of difficulty i like in an enemy mob… but i definitely think they just get a bad wrap bc most of us were first introduced to them in the abyss where we didn’t know their attack patterns yet so getting slapped around and perma-stunned was pretty frustrating lol 😭 plus their hp pools were way higher in abyss which made killing them take more time especially in cases where there were two waves

I used to be a Eula main. Then I spent months fighting rift hounds and specters…. I’m a Yoimiya main now.

Do abyss version tier list next? From easiest to hardest. I only started in 3.4, so it would be fun to see how abyss change over the years.
