St. Jiub Drives all of the cliff racers into an oblivion gate then closes it. BAM! problem solved.

What a great boss battle only... I think there should be one difference.

It would be EVEN BETTER if Bethesda made a tiny subspecies of cliff racers that are difficult to hit, and they always come in swarms of 10. They should all do very low damage, and have very low hp, but they should be able to generate some sonic wave by screaming which paralyzes the player. So the player can feasibly become paralyzed for like 20 seconds while the cliff racers just peck at them, making that wonderful sound... Oh and these cliff racers should be able to sometimes follow you even into caves, and they should be able to swim too. Maybe make miniature zombie cliff racers, that sometimes come back to life a minute later to harass the npc. These new types of cliff racers should have like heat seeking vision or something like that, or maybe even telepathy or even both so that it's impossible to sneak past them.

Ooo and maybe they should be given the ability to unlock doors with key like beaks, so that they can EVEN harass players in their own homes regardless if they leave the door locked or not.

I love the way you think.

While I'm not a terribly big fan of cliffracers, I have long felt that they were interesting in that they swarmed. With better AI, and squad-level tactics, they could have been a formidable force in the wilderness, instead of a mere annoyance.

Any group of creatures, working together, can be a threat. Even rats and small spiders. I would really love to see the enemy AI for smaller creatures improved, such that they show more intelligence - particularly for creatures that hunt in packs.

Mod idea = Cliff Racer Apocalypse.

Wave after Wave of Cliff Racers in specially designed dungeons. Too bad I have no idea how to mod. I guess I shall learn!

Cliffracer survival mode or an expansion similar to the one in red dead redemption would be neat.

250 speed and levitating through the air and the sons of guns still catch you. Its not that they are tough, its that they butt in on all your fights at the worst times! And a lot had diseases...man so annoying.
