Line 4:
** For example, [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YlfUcnSbKDA&feature=related Zulf's Theme] or [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t8cELTdtw6U&feature=related Zia's Theme] and those are just the ones with lyrics.
** The two of them are beautiful on their own, but [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GDflVhOpS4E phenomenal when combined].
* [[Demonic Spiders]]: Lunkheads, large Rattletails, and the hammer-spinning Gasbags, to name a few.
* [[Ensemble Darkhorse]]: Rucks. Ask anyone who hasn't played the game, but at least knows about it what they know about the game, and they'll probably tell you about the gravelly-voiced [[Lemony Narrator]].
* [[Game Breaker|Game-Breaker]]:
Line 13:
* [[Goddamn Bats]]: Squirts and Peckers are swarming weaklings that usually act as distractions for bigger enemies to clobber you. Miniature Rattletails also count. Peckers are far worse because Squirts are easily countered to death, while the bog-standard Peckers aren't (and the charging Peckers have an unusual timing to their counters that takes a bit to get used to, all while they're carving huge chunks out of your health).
* [[Good Bad Bugs]]: {{spoiler|When you arrive after either saving or leaving Zulf, if you decide to do the Stranger's Dream, you will be able to jump and use the Battering Ram to fight}}.
* [[Hell Is That Noise]]: At one point in the game, Rucks hums "Build That Wall
* [[That One Boss]]: Queen Anne, the Anklegator. It starts off easy, but her speed increases as her health goes down, and the finishing hit takes split-second timing to pull off.
* [[That One Level]]: Point Lemaign. Narrow platforms with Lunkheads at every chokepoint, Stinkeyes on the elevator portions, elevator portions that swarm you with enemies (especially the second one, which is flat-out ridiculous), all coming together to make a level that will have you pulling your hair out. And if you came in using idols? Yeah, just kill yourself because they'll surely do it for you.
* [[That One Sidequest]]: The Proving Grounds vary widely in terms of difficulty. Some, like the Galleon Mortar, you can conceivably pass on your first try. Others are only tricky (Breaker's Bow) or nearly impossible (Fang Repeater) until you get the appropriate upgrades or learn the right trick (War Machete). Then there's the Bullhead Shield trial. There's no upgrade that will help significantly, no trick to make it easier. Just your timing and luck. You'll need plenty of both. However, clever use of Spirits can make some of the more difficult Proving Grounds much easier; notably, the Bullhead Shield trial can be made easier using Lunkhead Liqueur (to return more damage when blocking with the shield), and any trials where dealing damage is an integral key to success (such as the Fang Repeater or Dueling Pistol trials) can be beaten more easily by equipping Werewhiskey and purposefully dropping to less than 33% health.
* [[The Woobie]]: Zia.
** [[Iron Woobie]]/[[Stoic Woobie]]: The Kid.
