1. Jyggalag
2. Umaril the Unfeathered
3. The Gatekeeper

I like Ayleids.

The shadow clone encounter reminds me of a certain Star Wars encounter.

I don't think I came across three memorable named bosses yet. The Gatekeeper would've been up there if he didn't fall over and die within a few seconds on a moderate difficulty level.

Umbra thoroughly trounced me even on 0% difficulty, so there's one. I think OOO had something to do with that, though.

The Gray Prince was of similar difficulty, possibly also for the same reasons. That, and he didn't stand still and let me kill him like he was supposed to, I can probably blame Deadly Reflex for that.

Other than that I can't think of anyone interesting I've encountered yet.

I don't really remember many unique bosses in this game. I guess I'll have to go with Mannimarco because I had seen so many posts about how hard he was to kill and he turned out to be a cakewalk.

Mankar Camoran (because you can continuously loot the other two fighting you, and I left with a lot of staves)
Jyggalag (I 1-hit killed that svcka)
My Shadow-Self in SI (stupid Chameleon)

The Gatekeeper and Mankar Camoran

The Gatekeeper wasn't particularly hard but finding the materials to weaken him and then putting the [censored] down was very satisfying

Myself in the Shivering Isles: I died a lot when I first met him. Now knowing the tricks of that battle, I still die half the time. A worthy adversary.
King of Miscarcand: Choosing the not obvious option, you fight 7 liches and their summonses. At level 45ish.... I died the first and second time I tried this.

Hmm...favorite boss battles.

1. Umaril- That was a fun fight.
2. Shadow clone- it was particularly hard, since I'm not accustomed to trying to kill myself :P .
3. Last King of the Ayleids- if you provide the correct...item to...that one guy (no spoilers here :laugh: ).


The shadow clone encounter reminds me of a certain Star Wars encounter.


Really? it reminds me of some Legend of Zelda encounters.

Even on max difficulty, it's not hard to do with a potent enough poison, especially at or below level 24. In fact, the most potent (vanilla) poison I've ever brewed could one-hit-kill him at level 46.

My favourite is the shadow clone (SI). Reminds of a similar battle in Legend of Zelda:Ocarina of Time.

Other than that, probably that boss at the end of the KotN quest. Forgot name, but fighting high above cyrodiil was fun.

EDIT: Oh yeah, Mankar Camoran. Yeah he's the best for me.

Mannimarco was a giant disappointment.

I liked the Shadow Clone, the other bosses were just bullet (sword?) sponges.
