Most dangerous uniques (minus Sigmund)
My picks:
Menkaure. Immunity to Mephitic Cloud can make for some VERY bad situations if you're fighting him in conjunction with a horde and you have nowhere to run to easily. My best hope (if I don't have powerful Fire magic or a fire wand (is usually to run away or use a teleport scroll before he hastes himself. Early Torment is a colossal nightmare, especially for melee-oriented characters.
Dowan/Duvessa. Luckily they can be Mephitic'd, which can hurt their ability to tag team you effectively. Still, fighting off two uniques who are potentially dangerous on their own and who get a significant buff when the other dies can be extremely dangerous for alot of characters in their "developing" stage.
Erolcha. Early banishment is a nightmare, although the other spells aren't much tamer.
Gastronok. The most horrifying of them all. Can very easily kill most player characters at the level they typically encounter him, and a very nasty surprise when he shows up in the "no caster enemies" Lair.
