I know all the excitement is focused on the "Legendary Skills" thing, but has anyone figured out what exactly the "Companions will equip better weapons and armor if given to them" actually does? Companions kind of do this already, but do they now take into account the Smithing bonuses?

I really wish they'd just let us equip our companions as we saw fit.

What's the "legendary skills" thing? I never saw a list of what patch 1.9 does.


Edit: Nevermind. Just read up on it.

All matters related to the 1.9 patch should likely be posted in the http://www.gamesas.com/forum/186-beta-update-on-steam/ subforum.

This here is sound advice.
