Custom follower only wants to fist-fight

Recommended Posts

I have created a custom follower and am having trouble getting her to use the weapons I give her. I am trying to make a sneaky sniper, but instead have made an aggressive brawler.

 

I templated her stats from Faendal, and then set her class to CombatRanger. For AI Data, I have selected csHumanMissile as combat style. From looking at this combat style, this should make her much more likely to use bows than anything else.

 

If I am reading the CK wiki correctly, in csHumanMissile she should view her ancient Nord bow as having effectively having 48 damage. Why would she use her fists instead?

 

When I ready my weapon she will ready one too, but she never uses it, and will always run up to punch instead. A weird thing is she seems to recognize that she wants a weapon - in the first dungeon she picked up a few draugr weapons, and will occasionally ready, but not use, them.

 

Can someone point me in the right direction?

set her Archery (marksman) skill higher than other weapon skills.

That didn't help. 95 archery and she still punches. Use the bow already!

Ah, if you want them to use weapons, give them weapons to start with. I gave her a bow in the CK, and she uses it.
