You could try cerwiden(i hope i spelled it right) follower. She is a mage follower with some neat abilities to use a staff, no staff at all and also configuration how to use her magic. She is able to counter weaknesses of foes etc - check it out here

 

Thanks for the suggestion, but I've already seen her on Gopher's playthrough and I'm not too keen on the voice, or the additional god thing. Shame, since apart from that the abilities are what I'm after.

Oh my - i never thought i would say that but here it goes: You can always mute her you know - ability before looks and voice, right? I recall she didnt have subtitles though - so that might actually be at bit tricky if you are interested in any of those quests that she is involved in.

Hello.

Does anyone know if there's a mod that allows followers to learn the new DLC spell tomes? Those added by Dawnguard/Dragonborn cannot be learned (I use UFO to allow teaching follower spells).

Alternatively a mod to make my mage followers less thick and useless would be helpful. I've taught a bunch of them with spell tomes, and they're usually maxed out in their respective schools, but 99% of the time they will just use sparks or the low level flames spell and do sod-all damage to an enemy. I have also never been able to get the mages in the game to heal or use staves, and I couldn't find a solution to this - no matter which mage follower I try. I can remove every weapon but staves from their inventory and no dice, but literally any other non-mage follower I use will use staves all the time, which makes no sense. Is there a skill needed to use them I don't know about?

It's been like this the whole way through the game, and now that I'm hitting tougher enemies in Dragonborn, having useless mages following me is getting to be a pain.

 

I have tried J'zargho, Erandur, Illia, Marcurio and some others I don't recall. All behave exactly like the above. No staves, crap spells. Even if I could check/fix this in console I'd be delighted.

Try swapping to AFT, UFO is kind of outdated,m and I have had weird glitches like this with it before, AFT can teach any follower any spell if I'm mistaken, though sometimes weirdness can occur and it doesn't always work right.

 

Also, I can get J'zargho to use staves and spells like firebolt in vanilla skyrim on my PS3 o.O

Yeah, I recall asking about the staves thing before and nobody else semed to have experienced it!

I considered switching to AFT, but I've been using UFO for so long, I'm worried it'll screw something up if I try to remove it.

From what I know, if you dismiss all followers, deactivate it threw the firefly, remove all the files from the data folder, then do a clean save, THEN install AFT, it should work, I did that not to long ago and it worked, (I tried UFO but found it way to glitchy) but I only had UFO installed for a few hours so it may be different.

Is there a mod like the one in Oblivion, which let you use the animations? Such as eating, drinking, sleeping, etc. Except for Skyrim ofc.

I know this mod allows you to do a fair amount of animations: Dovahkiin Relaxes Too
