Good followers?

A Dremora Lord comes in handy if you need a major distraction while you escape. And they look and sound really evil.

Cicero is good for Assassins.

Cicero is good at all :biggrin: he can use even a staff and a knife convincingly at the same time :bunny: for the Dremora Lord is probably the most powerful "follower"
I thought you could not get Cicero or other DB followers without finishing the DB questine?
I had Jenassa I did like her, she "sorta" fit, but I think I lost her..

Spoiler
exactly

Jenassa also was one of my favorite,with good dialogues line/voice acting and decent stealth/combat ability; but unfortunately i've lost her in a dungeon full of Falmer Shadowmaster :biggrin:

Eola...she's an absolute beast of a fighter. And very evil. You'll find her in Markarth, where the dead lay.

I too would reccomend Eola, she will always be my permanent follower choice and she scrubs up not bad too.
She will happily use whatever weapons you give her, including dual weilding staves with any one handed weapons.

I've been able to make any follower have very good sneak by giving them boots enchanted with muffle and armor enchanted with fortify sneak. But some followers have more aggressive fighting styles and so aren't compatible with stealth. Jordis in Solitude, for example, is insanely brave but is a loose cannon you can't control. There are mods for Aela that enable you to control her behavior and weapons, which is pretty helpful.

The best followers to me are the ones who can hold the most and not totally mess up my ambushes tripping over their two damn feet.

So, for me that's Marcurio. Would sure appreciate it if he stopped killing my horses though...

J'zargo is willing to go a long way to become a better mage or eliminate competition so I would believe he has no problem with any shady acts.

cold hard numbers.... remember that the followers level is set the first time you met them. (Or you use Wabbajack trick/exploit) http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Skyrim:Wabbajack

For me, my choise is no one. These "AI Rambo's" are not my style.

I prefer Derkeethus, he's shady, he stays behind, he's thief, he's gangsta :biggrin:

Why does he kill your horses?
Well when I dismount near an enemy, the horse charges into battle while Marcurio is all SPARKS UP IN THIS WOO. Sparks usually hits my horse as collateral damage, then he and Marcurio fight to the (inevitable horse) death. Now I just use Pacify on my horse when I dismount. @@
