Stupid Clannfears
Hey, is anyone else pissed off about Clannfears in Oblivion? I sure am. I just find it annoying that Bethesda rates Clannfears at level 11 when they have nearly as good of a combat skill as a nether lich, more attack damage than an ogre, and I can hardly block any of their attacks with a near level 14 character with journeyman block technique. It just seems to me that on the scale provided about what monsters are what level and how manageable they are in combat, Clannfears are way off that scale. It really decreases the quality of the game for me once I reach level 11 and it becomes insanely more difficult to close Oblivion gates, which I enjoy.
Now, I don't want to sound like I'm whining, and I apologize in advance if it sounds like it. I just wanted to rant about this someplace, so...yeah. What are your thoughts?

Except cliffracers were "AGHHHH SHUT THE FUCK UP GO AWAY" annoying, while clannfears are "AGHHHH WHO'S THE ASSHOLE THAT LEVELED THIS" annoying - so yeah, they definitely can't compare.

Pretty impressive. I was more annoyed at the fact that Clannfears can make my character stumble around after almost each attack. But that's probably the lack of agility factoring in.But back to Clannfears: I do not find them annoying, and I'm just lvl 12. One well aimed shot, and they go down.

No you said a bear called something stupid. Now Angelus did have something funny planned, Winnie the Poo, yours just sounded ludicrous to be honest .-Saddistic_Angel- wrote:Stupid, but, if you look at it in a certain kind of perspective, it'd be interesting enough. Incorporating it into a mod wouldn't be a good idea, though.
BTW angelus, if you could get Eeyore as a rideable horse you would become legendary.... at least in my eyes.

No, I didn't say a bear called something stupid. I said it was a stupid idea, but interesting at the same time. Quite a contrast of words, I understand that, but when I mentioned it as stupid, I was implying that it was completely irrelevant to anything, and therefore had no place in Morrowind, which in my view, would make it stupid. The reason I called it interesting was because if anyone were to actually make it and put it on a mod site (the chances would be like, a million to one), it would be interesting to look at the mesh and textures, and see how the author of the mod created it.
Ignore the extra d, please.
Cliffracers never bothered me, unless you count that time that a MOD added twice as many cliffracers as there were in the original game, the new ones each having a magical spell that made my starting-out PC's hair fall out. It's Slaughterfish that got me annoyed, every time I went for a virtual swim I got a horde of them that any James Bond villain would be proud to call his own. I remember one time that I tried to make my way to an island near Seyda Neen. I swam with all my might but got ripped up when I neared the shore. About ten slaughter fish, big and small, had formed a ring around my character's corpse.
