I think Lydia is my favorite follower. She's the right mixture of a total cinnamon roll mixed with a bit of sassiness and or Nordic brutality. Seriously, this lady heatbutts forsworn to death.
Ria is also a playful warrior... when I played for the first time she followed me on several adventures, like always I gave her potions hoping that she would use them when needed... she did. On one such adventure I heard her giggle behind me and when I turned around she was gone... she had taken the invisibility potion I had gave her and was gone for a while, then she popped back in and the potion was gone from her inventory. What do you think of that.?
While not on my shortlist, J'zargo is fun to have around, certainly an honorable mention. The main reason that I don't use him more often is those scrolls of his. They burn everything in the area, not just enemies. I always have a follower or three with me thanks to AFT. So, someone is always p*ssed when I cast one of J'zargo's scrolls.
@Ben van der RietI know and I said it's cicero cause it is but then I said inigo is for the meme cause cicero is a way better follower stats wise then inigo But inigo is more entertaining
Frea is probably my favourite follower because she scales with you infinitely but the only thing is that you have to complete the hardest quest line in the game (the dragonborn dlc) to get her.
I vote Aela. She caps at level 50, has 50% Frost resistance (which makes enchanting her gear for magicka and elemental resistance much more convenient) can be a follower, spouse, blade member, steward, archery trainer and gives werewolf ability.
Just started a new play through and accidentally killed her 😭 didn’t realise till too late looked all over the giant camp for her body nowhere to be found so imma just have to stick with Kharjo
you can grab vilkas and farkas yes, but you can also not finish the main questline and have delphine and esbern, and there's more: you can get lidiya, and if you have 100 conjuration you can get 2 dedras along side you. That makes up for a team of 8 pretty much.
I feel like nobody marries Athis, he makes a lovely husband and rly softens up after marriage. I could never bear to bring him out as a follower tho, too scared he'd die.
Married Athis in my current playthrough as a Make Breton Spellsword. He lives at Breezehome with pur two daughters and Meeko and I'm really surprised that I javent married him before this because shes always been a favourite of mine.
Vilkas can actually die though because when I was in the level 20s he got killer by a dragon and after that when I went back to Whiterun Varkas always chased me around with his weapon drawn
I'm using Faendal, because I'm still near the beginning of the game, and I gave him full glass armor. The damage on his weapons are somewhere over 800. I enchanted the boots with Muffle and the "chest piece" with health regen 3,089%. I'm planning on doing this with each follower I use because it's so easy to do and hella fun to have a badass friend just wrecking people with you. @ESO
@@LaterTazor I think every elder scrolls and fallout UA-camr I watch really can't pronounce shit. And no, I don't mean some of the weirder words. I mean the real English words. One I was watching said "benign" like it was "Ben again"
Honestly... on all of my play-throughs I always ended up with Jenasa as my follower. She is super sneaky and has totally neutral moral values, handy for the darker quest lines :D
My default vanilla skyrim follower top 3 are: Serana, Cicero and Mjoll the Lioness. These three followers are immortal, they can't be killed. If modded skyrim you can tweak mod and make Mjoll the Lioness a werewolf as well in which she can turn just like Serana both turn on the same time as player activates to turn in either VampLord or Werewolf. This is really fun for massive massacre and carnage in Skyrim during questing and randomness dungeon exploring it's giving Skyrim more like Darkish livestyle playstyle though..... Which in my opinion i fell in love with the Elder Scrolls Lore the dark vibe carved within its lore is fantastic though.
Eola the cannibal..great at sneak uses all weapons you give her...perfect follwer for sneaky archer build..no joke me and many of my friends tip her..plus she boosts herself often by eating at her kills
J'zargo is the best follower and you can't change my mind and here is why he is the best 1: he is a cat 2: he is funny(arrogant) 3: he doesn't have a max lvl he just keep leveling up with you making him strong as fuck at higher levels 4: his attacks are mostly shock spell which is hard to block 5: he is a fluffy *ｂｏｉ*
I did until I stopped cause it was boring and repetitive with nothing new...but I play oblivion in its place and I don't regret a thing about it: way better random enchantments, better looking glass gear in my opinion and more dlcs
I wish there were bard companions, and also bard skills. A bard companion that buffed you and debuffed your enemies would be awesome. I'm thinking like the hunting horn from monster Hunter world. Hopefully in ES6! 🤞
Fairly new to this game and I've only had Lydia..... Didn't realize there were other followers until I fought uthgerd the unbroken bare handed. I was thinking of using both on quest but apparrently you can't do that. I'm still gonna marry lydia though.
i love Aela, her wild strong nature is soo atractive besides she is beautiful, however i hate how she complains about any home thats not on solitude when you adopt, its nice that it shows that she has some strong motherly love and care for the children, she worries for them and only wants the best for them like any mother would. But that means dumping any other options including the house you spent hours building. But as a companion she is a perfect recomendation for any stealth build character. And she looks hot as hell on Forsworn armor.
If you really want to cheapen any follower all you have to do is enchant their weapons with Paralyze and Chaos. As we know, followers weapons dont lose charges on enchantments.
So I finally just got Skyrim Special Enhanced Edition for the One and, while I usually sacrifice Lydia to Boethiah, you and your interactions with her make me want to keep her around, if only to yell "Oh my God Lydia!" Lol.
I always end up marrying Farkas and traveling with vilkas since I like to imagine Farkas just sets up a blacksmithing shop while his more battle seasoned brother keeps his mate safe on quests(or marrying marcurio but since his entire personality just vanishes when you marry him I leave him at home.. Such a shame. I married him for his sass and he turns into a soy boy..)
Resto glitch is really only for damage, since I believe there may be no cap, however, a million armor rating is just a number. All your total armor pieces worn at once has a cap of around 650. Meaning you'll ignore 65% of melee damage at most. Why they didn't think to cap damage is an obvious oversight, making wearing armor useless because you only need to survive long enough to get in one hit. Now if you use the glitch to enchant jewelry to give virtually unlimited health/stamina/magika..etc., then everything is for aesthetics only as you could go through the game in your undies with a vanilla un-improved iron dagger.
For anyone who is just watching this and is on pc: Open console (press ~ key) Click on follower in console, Type: setlevel 1000 0 5 100 I have AFT, but I don’t think you need it to use this console command
Fortunately there's the Amazing Follower Tweaks mod to allow all followers to scale to your level above the level cap. That way you're not screwed just for taking a follower you like that has a low level cap.
Eric and the mage in Rifton are my favorites. :D Marcello or something like that. Eric had the best personality hands down. The Mage is rude but very OP.
This technically works doing the same method with the dawnguard dlc if you never bring serana back home she will just accompany you and another companion forever. Although you have to deal with her whining about going home lol.
Is there any way to get Aela as an additional follower? I already have Lydia and Serana following me around. Add Aela and the goddess trinity is complete.
I prefer atronachs on all my characters that have SOME skill with conjuration. When I'm in combat, I'm covered by an atronach/zombie of choice, and when I'm sneaking, just don't summon/raise anything. And I could use the Dremora Butler to carry my stuff. Das how I roll.
Your forgetting the horses that run right into dragons and giants to fight them after spending a thousand gold to buy it, or dropping dead after a four meter fall
The most common thing that I do with any of my followers is to give them the best armor possible which includes enchantments to boost their health stamina magic and whatever their profession skill is so in all honesty any follower could be made better.
ha ha my favorite thing about Njada is her insanely bad attitude: "what possible guidance could YOU offer me???" Best is using healing hands on her "I suppose you think you're better than me, don't you?"
Played Elsword for 5 years its extremely pay to win, I doubt ESO's even played it lol (This coming from a guy thats spent over 500 bucks on the game) after a while the game makes you start shelling out cash if you want to be able to keep up with everyone else. I say dont bother.
I got Lydia initiated into the Blades. Problem is now she won't wear any better armor or helmet than the default blades, although she does use better weapons. Is there a way to get her out of blades? Or do i need to get a new follower? I don't want to lose Lydia.
You don't need to go in get training one by one, if you have the money you can just pay them for all 5 levels and take your money back, and ask for it back without exiting the dialogue menu thing
Lydia ► Every Other Follower..

Aela has the most stamina of any follower at level 50
Giggity.
Ariel Fetters Yeah, that maneater can go for hours..😋
I like here eyes!
Companions just take your xp and block the door. So I made Lydia fight Karstaag.
This.
Athen Paez So true, I'm not using companions on my current playthrough and it's actually made the game a lot more fun for me.
You mean followers? Companions are a specific guild.
@kevin kwok, yes, and companions
if a companion is blocking the door, you can sprint through the door which will push your companion out of the way
2019: still going strong, I’ll always be here 😂

I think Lydia is my favorite follower. She's the right mixture of a total cinnamon roll mixed with a bit of sassiness and or Nordic brutality. Seriously, this lady heatbutts forsworn to death.
hahaha definetly but i havnt seen her headbutting tho
She got one tapped by a vampire in my game. So I will never know the Lydia experience
I hate Lydia.

I can remember the first video of yours I watched was where to get daedra hearts when I was playing on the Xbox 360 about 5 and a half years ago
4:55 just so everyone is aware, in this type of spelling, the J acts as a y. So rather than "N-Jadda" as he was saying, it would be "Nyadda"

Cicero, hands down
Agreed. The best mage is Aranea Ienith but she caps at lvl 30. She summons atronachs and knows freaking chain lighting and thunderbolt.
Frea is the best bc she has no level cap, so you can be lvl 150 and she can be as well
ha ha my favorite thing about Njada is her insanely bad attitude: "what possible guidance could YOU offer me???" Best is using healing hands on her "I suppose you think you're better than me, don't you?"
