Equipping followers with staves

Post » Thu May 30, 2013 11:34 am

And hilarity follows! I gave Mjoll a staff of paralysis and and a staff of fireball in addition to her ebony warhammer and she went nuts with them!

We were approaching the tower on the river not far from whiterun headed to riften and as soon as she spotted the bandits she went crazy, there were fireballs and green paralysis shots firing all over the place, was like 5th November.

And woe betide any mud crabs who approach, she hit one of those with paralysis followed by two quick fireballs, catching me in the explosion.

I think I may have to arrange anger management for her, or stock up on lots of soul gems.

I normally give my companions a version of Soul Trap on their physical weapons.

Remember giving Lydia two staffs and she was able to do pretty good fire support against an dragon, downside is that she also used them against wolves and other weak enemies discharging them to fast.

I once let Vilkas carry a staff of fireballs and a lightning staff. Then we went to a dungeon where there was flammable liquid on the floor.

After that, I took the staves away from him and told him to stick with the sword instead.

I've noticed that mage followers tend to use the staff with a little more intelligence than the warriors, who go all trigger happy "woo-hoo! Look at me, I'm a mage!!!" :P
