my DB initiate walks around as if she is holding a 2 handed weapon whenever I draw mine, even if she is unarmed. she is just holding an invisible clamor or something. this makes her walk extremely slow, and she also does not engage in combat. is there a fix for this? I'm playing on xbox by the way

did you dismiss her then bring her back to the party?
and try switching out her equipment that might help

I've done all of that
she keeps doing it

Kill her, if she is useless, then the DB has no use for her...
In short, try another follower and see if thy have the same problem or if its just her.
and i realise that although i said "in short" it was longer
