10 Most Annoying Soulsborne Creatures Ever

Let us all say it loudly and proudly - screw the damn Basilisks.

These hideously bug-eyed frogs are first encountered in Dark Souls in the Depths, and then again in both The Great Hollow and Ash Lake.

It's fair to say that they aren't massively threatening when fought solo because they don't deal much damage, but they can nevertheless spit a fog to curse you, which will quickly fill up a curse meter that, if not dealt with, will kill you in short order.

Also, you'll likely often end up facing a pack of the Basilisks at once in a confined space, which is decidedly trickier to deal with. Simply, you will die.
