Actually, now that I'm thinking about it, I think my vote should go to that damned Monstrous Spider in the Deep Roads... it does ridiculous amounts of damage and keeps the person it's attacking staggered to the point where nothing I do can stop it. I mean yeah, Horror will work, but if you are waiting for a cooldown or don't have a character with that spell, it's a big headache. Plus, I hate spiders, so when it lunges and covers the whole screen... I freak out and sometimes die because I can't look at the screen. >.> Shameful, I know... but there it is.
Yeah... M. Spider is the big bad IMO. On the plus side, the other Monstrous Spiders in the game don't take very long to kill, so it's far less disgusting.

One of the simpler equations. If you were to engage it in melee...that might be a lot tougher.
The good news is that all that desensitising yourself to the fact that spiders can't actually hurt you can help reduce any arachnophobia...though I suppose in the game they can hurt you so not sure what the deal is with that haha
If i were to pick one the hardest fight I would say that one with the ship captains when the bloody raiders decide to join in. Had like three or four enemies jumping in and out of stealth stabbing my guys - and as all my characters are pretty glassy this isn't very nice..

Winter's Blast & Chain Lightning make it a very fast fight.

So did everyone just miss the part where I mentioned having little trouble against a room full of rage demons, a desire demon boss, and other assorted nightmares? I'm not saying the game is hard or that I can't get past the spider. I'm saying that out of all the bosses in the game, this is one of the hardest to deal with. Hell, I've never even taken Aveline into the Deep Roads... and for the record, I try to do these battles without any PC deaths, so when that thing targets Hawke and relentlessly attacks while I try to keep him alive, that's when it gets "difficult."SuicidialBaby wrote...

Which boss is the hardest depends on the Hawke you pick, as a Spirit Healer most of act 1 is a easy, if you take melee Rogue Hawke some fights can be a pain if he is your main DPS.
Brekker is pain with Rogue but hardest I couldn't really say.

Most bosses in the game are rather easy but boring and tedious, in my opinion.
Xebenkeck was hard the first time because I was too stupid to pull all those guys out of the room. After I figured that out it was easy (you can actually run far enough that the battle would stop completely between the waves)
Those two Revenants on Sundermount (Awiergan Scrolls quest I think) can be quite difficult. I'm lucky when I can lure them out one by one, but when I fail to do that it's a pain (or a kitefest). Especially since the latest patch, where Revenants got that stupid Pull back.
Spider in the Deep Roads was no trouble, but the one in Justice kept knocking my rogue down before she could even hit Assassinate. The whole fight was mostly "Here, have an Aveline, why don't you go beat her and let me get up?" But noooo, Hawke's too pretty, spiders like her
As a rogue I had so much pain with Night Lies. Two-handed makes this fight a cakewalk though. But then again, two-handed makes everything a cakewalk (and that's why I don't like it)
I personally find assassins-packed fights like Brekker and Nuncio quite challenging, but that's mostly because I suck.
And of course ship captains with raiders. Oh, they are like That Vorcha Pyro of Dragon Age universe.

You come across a blood mage who appears to be kneeling down, as soon as you approach a pride demon and a load of shades swarm all over you.
Agreed. That part wasn't an easy fight.
Other fights that were hard for me were the ones against the high dragon and Hybris. Though the fights were rather difficult because of the waves of new enemies and not so much because of the high dragon or Hybris in itself.

There was also that elf on the Wounded Coast who wanted to kill the werewolf. I had to reload 3 times before I finally dropped the difficulty down to normal. But I think that was just hard because I was so low level at that point.

The problem with all the bosses is that, and this isn't new, the feel like they are almost at the level of being QTE because you just keep repeating the same sequences over and over to beat them.

Try Orsino without a healer and only 4 health potions.
For me, those two Revenants were a serious issue. Don't even want to remember how many times my mage died there.

On my first NM i went with 2 primal mages to Deep roads - you can imagine how much a kick in the balls it was.
Or Nexus fight with 1 pure tank, pure healer and 2 dps with decent amount of stamina = easily overspawned.
Xebenkeck without pulling is for sure on first place. High dragon /ARW are pain for melee setups. belive thats all.

Oh SHIIII-
I find Hybris to be a walk in the park in comparison.

The other fights I've yet to beat on the hardest difficulty are the Ancient Rock Wraith (probably could do it now with the right party, but on my current run I had a very sub-optimal team for that fight) and the Barracks fight against the fake guardsman in Act I. (That's the only one I actually hate. Fake guardsman should not be harder for me to kill than a High Dragon, dammit!)
I confess that I have always pulled Xebenkeck out of the room, because she, too, likes to hang out with Rage Demons.
