Anything that heals itself or (after getting chopped up into little bits) pulls itself back together and comes at you again...definitely going to get a reaction in my experience.I have rarely seen such a frantic reaction when a batch of skeletons (oh so casually scoffed at and blasted through) put themselves back together and kept attacking. Pure party panic. Great stuff.For myself, barring the obvious, beholders -which even at high levels would elicit immediate "run away" mode, but "back in the day" I'd have to say mine (as a player) were Green Slime (it's gonna turn me into slime, man!!!!) and Rot Grubs (anything that's gonna burrow in and eat me from the inside out just freaks me out!) ...and anything (usually undead) that drained levels.Actually was in a group one time (party average couldn't have been more than 3rd level or so) up against...I dunno, wights or wraiths or something. We're all completely freaked yelling at the player of the party cleric "Turn it! Turn it! Turn it!!!" . His response was "Screw turning! I'm getting out of here!!!" (granted his cleric was always played as something of a coward. Still, several lost levels later, we were not pleased.)--SD</blockquote>
