Companion Stats

Post » Fri Dec 17, 2010 3:06 pm

Hi,

Just recently got a human companion (wont say who as this is a no spoilers area).

Was experimenting with changing their armour, giving them higher DT. But although it changes their appearance it doesn't seem to reduce the damage they receive!

And also giving them a new weapon doesn't seem to change anything?!

Why oh why Devs couldn't you have avoided this simple mistake! Or was it just meant to be this way.

From what I read you were suppose to give them better weaponry and armour. Maybe they don't think it's better or, it's another bug.

Yep I tested it out by hitting my follow one-click with knuckles with full armour and without.

The same amount of health was gone.

Has anyone got the DT to work properly yet with companions?

Also do companions level up with you?

You can give them different armors for looks and different weapons also for looks but thier basic stats come from your charisma.

Ok, never thought of it that way before.

So if I give them different weapons, would they use them without using ammo like their default ones?
