I voted for Stealth Assassination missions, but specifically it would be Stealth Assassination Missions on The Chosen One on a high Continent Tier in The Deep.

For those who will never get such an experience that means Black enemies on a black background where most attacks instakill you (a fire bat does 1,500 damage a hit). Which basically turns these back into the Journey To Perfection missions from beta

That sounds terrible... how is that a good thing?

I like high risk situations.

It was hard to pick just one, but I really like the Destroy Umbra Vortex missions.  They're just awesome!  I'm also fond of Lava Escape, Stealth Assassination, and Battleground.

I used to hate JtP, but they're starting to grow on me.

I picked Battleground, but also really like the Boss Gangs and Umbra Vortex ones.

I hated journey to perfect until yesterday night, when I finally remembered my bat scrolls. Oh, they shoot missiles at me, but my +75% power legs let me escape them all. Bats don't even have legs, so this is kinda weird, but it's so much fun! The outdoor ones are too easy, you can storm dash across the entire top of the mission. Buildings are hilarious, because you'll have a constant barrage of missiles exploding on every surface for no reason, and it will lag horrendously. Cave missions are pretty similar, except you just have to dodge a few bats or similar.

So easy, so much fun, and hilarity ensues when you hit the switch at the end and have 100 missiles impact you while you're invulnerable from mission victory.

I found the JtP really annoying at first (goddamn bats!). Then I started to really enjoy them, they have a lot of tension which the ones just don't have.

I also really like Battleground missions. I think because you feel like you're actually part of the world with other people, and you have purpose. I'd love to see the missions integrated into the world more, with consequences.

e.g. Avoiding the stealth mission will cause the monsters in the surrounding area to go up a tier.

I went with Stealth Assassination as well, though I do enjoy the simple pleasures of a Boss Tower or the excitement of Battlegrounds as well.   Once I ratcheted up the difficulty enough to make stealth missions actually require stealth, they became very tense and enjoyable.

Went with Fix Anachronisms.   I'll usually always do these if I find them as secret missions.

They're interesting.   Cant just plow through the mission by shooting the heck outta everything;  it's all about careful movement and dodging enemies and a gazillion projectiles, while you seek out the things you're supposed to attack.

They can be pretty damn hard, too.  Depending on what spawns you can get into some really dangerous situations, and if you miss and strike the wrong thing with a high-tier spell, your healthbar can just MELT.    A rather stupid way to die, really.... had that happen once.   Accidentally shot a robot with a single plasma bolt, causing my character to instantly explode.   

There are enemies that can show up in these, too, that you almost NEVER see otherwise, like the sea worms and those aggravating jellyfish.
