if you got the pc version, the resurrect console command can be your best friend

Note that Falmer keeps attacking downed characters. They killed my Lydia, underneath Markarth.
Damned Falmer.

So THAT'S why my followers always die when I leave them behind to finish the Falmer.

Damned Falmer.

Lydia died for me when I did a pivot while using Flames. She was trying to watch my back by attacking the head honcho at a fort (the same guy we were there to sort out) who snuck up behind me. I hadn't saved for quite a while so I left here there. I still feel bad about that.

She sure can. Give her some better armor, some better weapons and use Healing Hands on her, which also raises your Restoration skill and she'll be around for a very long time. I'm not sure about high levels but I'm up to Level 29 and she's still with me.

:tes:

I'll 'fess up; I used the fire - disable - enable - rehire trick with the console to level up her stats. I just hate having companions die on me.

Lydia died while helping me with some ice wraiths one time....i believe she took an arrow to the knee....

I'm level 50, found Brelyna at level 15~16, and she continues alive, with me. :toughninja:

Every single follower can die

False. i know Derkeethus can't die.

Oh, she can definitely die. I've killed her every time I've taken her with me, except two. I sacrificed her those times. I guess that's still killing her.

Point is, I hate that whiny b.

Yes, too easily in my opinion. She always dies soon after I get her. Janessa lasted for ages.

Yes all companions can die. If you see Lydia or whoever get on one knee it means they are vulnerable. Any AOE friendly fire spell, missfired arrow shot, etc etc will land the killing blow.

Not every follower can die. the DB initiates and Derkeethus are some that can't die. and i'm sure there's others.
