Which of all the sidequests in any Spyro game did you find the most annoying?

That god forsaken first person shooter game in Spyro 3!!! It was in the Agent9 portal at the end of Fireworks Factory in Evening Lake where you had to first shoot all the ninjas to get to the egg then turn around and kill them all again to save Hansel.

Also the snow board race in the Super Bonus Round. Bloody yetis...

Probably that challenge in Spyro 2 with the orbs powering machines and these monsters keep coming taking them out and take orbs, so you have to flame the enemies too. I can't remember what it was called though >.<

"Trouble with the Trolley eh?"

That trolley sidequest in Breeze Harbor when I was little, took forever.

The Escort Mission from 'Fracture Hills' from 'Spyro 2', or perhaps the tank mission in 'Honey Marsh' from 'Spyro 4'.
Both of them are HORRIBLE!

Nearly all the challenges in Spyro 4 are hard (not glitchy, I mean HARD)... Especially the ice slide in the monkey level and Honey Marsh tank...

I didn't like the tank challenge of the Haunted Tomb level in Spyro 3 either, and Agent 9 Ninja and dinosaur one, and the YETI BOXING

In Spyro 2, the escorting one in FH...

add more later

I did think the escort mission in Fracture Hills was very annoying. But I really did not like the seeds challenge from Zephyr. It was rather long and tedious (until I learned what the double jump was). However, the second slide challenge from Monkey Monastery was quite frustrating given the perfect the run called for and the lackluster slide controls. =_=

Congrats! You wasted five seconds reading this.

Yes, I forgot to mention the escorting one. I hate when they make characters who are deliberately stupid just to make things tedious.

The Honey Marsh shooter is by far the most infernal experience I've ever gone through in Spyro series. It is pure torture from the beginning to the end. There is not enough of time to spend for completing that mission and PS2 version has the most inaccurate targeting in that bloody cannon. I just hate it with all that I am.

The other annoying quest is the crystal challenge in GtG in the level "Magma Cone". Especially the second part drives me nuts. I did not find any of the Spyro 3 missions particularly hard but when you're targeting for the skill points, the yeti boxing can be one royal pain in one's backside. I cannot even believe that I actually used to be so good at that yeti boxing that I beat the yeti in the second part of the quest on round 1. I don't remember what kind of technique I used.

I might give you more opinions... for a small fee of course.

Oh god the yeti boxing! I had to do the wimpiest thing with that one; I got the yeti down to just one hit's worth of health less than my own abd spent the rest of the match backing away from him.

Honey Marsh where you're shooting from the canon in the tank, it's fair to say, that it's bloody horrible.
I have a trick of defeating the yeti, if you back Bentley into a corner, the yeti doesn't seem to attack him as much, now this is no good for the skill point as it still takes time in defeating him, but for some reason, the corner walls seem to block the yeti's fists somehow, allowing you to get more punches in. I done it this way at least three time, and have not failed once. I did manage to get the skill point for it, only once though. The yeti can still attack you, but not as much as before.
