Germonicus Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 (edited) I just ditched Lydia in favour of Erandur the mage.He does ok so I decided to keep him.I even bought him some nice robes of destruction and made him some enchanted weapons but he refuses to use the high damage weapons or the robes (he prefers to go au naturelle rather than wear them).I think the game selects his weapon not based on base damage + damage from enchantment,instead it seems to look at the smithing rank (He'll select an ebony weapon over an orc weapon with much higher stats).I've also given him staves which he won't use even if it's his only weapon.The crazy part is that I just saw him dual wielding a blank ebony sword and a pickaxe when he had much,much better weapons to use.Only gave him those 2 items so I didn't have to carry them :P He also seems to swap weapons/spells at random intervals,I've seen him with a weapon and spell,with 1 weapon only and dual wielding at different times even though his inventory didn't change. I never saw this kind of thing with Lydia,as long as I gave her the weapons/armour I wanted her to use she at least had the decency to wear them and not swap weapons like a mad juggler! Does he do this for everyone? Anyone worked out how to get him to put some clothes on and use a nice weapon?

raatorotta Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 Lol, i don't know, try editing his stats, make him better mage and worse at using weapons. Maybe he then accept the role of Mage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metall87 Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 yup, open the console, type INV on that npc, and start to removeitem all the generic stuff they have. Also if you want a battle mage, remove the old spells and add some only for the left hand. It works for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
