Before making a single edit, Tropedia EXPECTS our site policy and manual of style to be followed. Failure to do so may result in deletion of contributions and blocks of users who refuse to learn to do so. Our policies can be reviewed here.
All images MUST now have proper attribution, those who neglect to assign at least the "fair use" licensing to an image may have it deleted. All new pages should use the preloadable templates feature on the edit page to add the appropriate basic page markup. Pages that don't do this will be subject to deletion, with or without explanation.
All new trope pages will be made with the "Trope Workshop" found on the "Troper Tools" menu and worked on until they have at least three examples. The Trope workshop specific templates can then be removed and it will be regarded as a regular trope page after being moved to the Main namespace. THIS SHOULD BE WORKING NOW, REPORT ANY ISSUES TO Janna2000, SelfCloak or RRabbit42. DON'T MAKE PAGES MANUALLY UNLESS A TEMPLATE IS BROKEN, AND REPORT IT THAT IS THE CASE. PAGES WILL BE DELETED OTHERWISE IF THEY ARE MISSING BASIC MARKUP.
The Millenium Battle certainly qualifies. You fight versus lots of Mooks with some comrades who help you by drawing Mooks to themselves, and you activate turrets for even more damage. It must be seen.
Game Breaker - the Wasp Hive series of rifles early in the game. Fire and forget indeed. "Skillful/Proficient" gear may apply as well, as you can get high-level skills early on - such as Afterlife (which basically turns corpses into health potions) for the Evoker. Or you can get one of your existing skills upgraded a notch or two having a "rank" higher than maximum for that skill.
Goddamn Bats: Ravagers hop around in packs, usually scattered within barking distance of each other, all over the map, and are worth paltry experience for your troubles. The Chompers may be this to some, but to some they're kind of cute — until they get bigger.
Closer to the trope, the Shriekers fly around on bat wings, shrieking and nipping, and also fly in packs. They're harmless unless they're ignored, in which case they can chew a character to pieces.
The Goddamnedest is actually called the Schism Bat. A miniature version of the Warper, they're easy to overlook and hard to target, and can quickly give you a status effect that makes you even more vulnerable to them. A pack of them is as dangerous as anything in Hell.
Tortured Souls (and derived enemies). These buggers may not have much HP, but they teleport around with a purple beam, which damages you. And they rarely miss... and tend to come in numbers.
Nightmare Fuel: The statues in the British Museum look creepy already. But then they come alive.
Scrappy Level: Embankment Redoubt, Sudden Genre Shift puts the player in charge of a Redshirt Army, to be torn up on the battlefield in situations players could, with the skills developed up to that point, handle by themselves.
It's not that bad, actually - you get to restart as many times as you please, and enemies don't respawn or regenerate. You also get to heal your troops and deploy an airstrike with a decent use rate.
Angel Passage is a major offender. You have to clean up a whole level. With a fixed weapon. And every destroyed Boil leaves a Poison damage field. You're not required to remove all of the Boils, but it's a good idea as you'll be facing a boss in a field full of them otherwise. You'll die fast.
