Skyrim: Every Follower Ranked Worst To Best. Skyrim exists as a testament to how much dedication gamers and developers alike can put into a game when they’re truly passionate about it. With most gamers still adventuring through the Nord’s homeland some eight years after its release, it’s hard to question the quality and engrossing charm of Bethesda’s massive fantasy RPG (minus a few bugs and horses being able to traverse at 9. Every rock, plant, and troll have excruciating detail pumped into them, and the followers in the game are no exception. Accompanying you through every frozen waste, pine forest, or dank and dangerous dungeon, followers offer some added muscle and companionship through the lovely in game world.

While some followers really shine, other fall flat, especially when they’re competing with spell casting cat- men and drunk, disgruntled barbarians. Followers are judged by a certain set of criteria: aside from combat effectiveness, followers are also rated on how good of a companion they actually make while traveling with them; meaning their dialogue and any interactions they have with their surroundings and the Dragonborn.

People seem to come in all shapes and sizes. Do any other animals display the same amount of variation in size as humans among healthy adults? The ill-fated movie adaptation of Todd McFarlane's Image Comics series, Spawn, is 20 years old. Here are some shocking facts about the movie. The Taste of Edmonton is getting new digs.Alberta's infrastructure minister Brian Mason announced Tuesday morning the 2018 edition of the Taste of Edmonton will be. ‘Killing of a Sacred Deer’ Review: Nicole Kidman, Colin Farrell Get Dark and Freaky.

It’s hard to narrow down a list with so many options available, so if any Dovahkiin out there don’t see their favorite follower, give us a holler in the comments letting everyone know why your favorite adventure companion rules.

As a Nord warrior that specializes in heavy armor and two- handed weapons, Ingjard is a pretty useful follower. Being a Nord, she already has a fifty percent resistance to frost, meaning that she is somewhat resistant to the dangers present in the icy climes of Skyrim. Ingjard can be recruited after the quest “Prophet” is completed, part of the main quest in the Dawnguard DLC.

The Tomatometer rating – based on the published opinions of hundreds of film and television critics – is a trusted measurement of movie and TV programming quality. The A Taste of the Lash trope as used in popular culture. Flagellation (more commonly called "flogging") is a method of punishment in which a person is. In an earlier review of "Blade Runner," I wrote; "It looks fabulous, it uses special effects to create a new world of its own, but it is thin in its human story.". Two college students get a summer job on an offshore oil rig. They are soon approached by a co-worker who had earlier befriended them, and who now tries to draw them.

Even though she is a mighty Nord, her two- handed weapon preference means that she can be pecked at by enemies that attack quickly, due to some of her long- winded attack animations. She is one of the few followers in the entirety of Skyrim that will still unquestioningly follow the Dragonborn if they’re a vampire, speaking volumes to her loyalty in a game, whereas most NPCs and followers flee at the very sight of a bloodsucker. She also doesn’t have a level cap, meaning that she will grow as powerful as the Dragonborn will allow through the course of their travels. Still, in the gist of the massive game, she’s pretty typical. Cosnach. As an extremely drunk warrior who is found being a belligerent barbarian at the Silver- Blood Inn in Markarth, Cosnach is a Breton warrior who likes to imbibe just a bit too much. Talking to his employer across the street reveals that Cosnach is getting plastered because of the increasing amount of Foresworn attacks on trade caravans, meaning that the trade business is slow.

If the Dragonborn is so inclined, they can challenge him to a fight, resulting in him becoming a follower. Cosnach can also be considered for marriage, if gamers decide that booze- soaked deadbeats are their thing. Players can also give Cosnach drinks, making him dance for joy, and even watch him argue drunkenly with his employer about his sixteen hour drinking binges.

Erandur. Originally serving a cult that was dedicated to a Daedric prince, Erandur left his old life of shady dealings with the demonic side of Skyrim and dedicated his life to Mara, becoming a healer. He becomes available after helping him in the quest “Waking Nightmare”, where his power becomes apparent; he specializes in fire spells and utilizes a mace when melee combat becomes the only option. He’ll also dual wield like a mad man if players are so inclined to give him another weapon, and he’ll even whip a bow out every once in a while if he isn’t able to reach enemies with his spells. While being pretty mediocre combat- wise, Erandur is also a serious downer when it comes to being a travel partner; he’ll often mention his dark past and his inability to deal with the death of his friends. Barbas“Skyrim is now host to giant, flying lizards and two- legged cat- men and you’re surprised by me?” Barbas does have a point, and it’s hard to deny the allure of a talking dog. Barbas is actually a mystic creature (having taken multiple forms through the Elder Scrolls games), who serves as a companion to one of the Daedric princes. He is first encountered on the road to Falkreath, approaching the player and partaking in humorous dialogue.

Combat- wise, Barbas’s bite is pretty lethal, meaning that he can down most minor enemies with one or two lunges. However, if players are looking to utilize stealth, Barbas is a poor selection considering that he isn’t capable of sneaking. Plus he constantly barks, making him tolerable for only so long before players start seeking a less conspicuous companion. Brelyna Maryon. Brelyna is one of the apprentices at the College of Winterhold where she is mostly introverted and a bit of a crank, and overall a subpar spell caster. After some talking and quest progression, she actually becomes quite polite and– if players equip the Amulet of Mara– a marriage prospect. Brelyna can be lethal in combat as well, able to increase her defense using oakflesh and throwing some serious fire spells around. She is also able to summon flame and frost Atronachs to assist in combat.

Apart from her powerful magic, she has an extremely low health pool, meaning that watching her get her butt knocked down repeatedly is almost a guarantee when fighting tougher foes. Plus, she doesn’t really have much melee skill to speak of, instead opting for spells that can render her vulnerable to attack in the midst of casting.

Farkas. As a member of the Circle, Farkas can kick some serious butt in the land of Skyrim. He’s part werewolf and part Nord, meaning that he is a threat when it comes to combating the game world’s many threats. In addition to his combat prowess, Farkas is a master trainer when it comes to heavy armor, so if you’re looking to stomp around in a suit of ebony, Farkas is your man. Farkas is also your man if you want to marry a dude with a hankering for spiced mead with an ungodly amount of body hair. Combat ability and training expertise aside, Farkas is also stricken with lycanthropy, meaning that he is totally a werewolf, as evidenced by the smeared mascara around his eyes and the fact that you actually watch him turn into a werewolf mid quest before he rips a bunch of dudes to shreds.

Considering that Farkas can turn into a werewolf, it’s pretty lame that he rarely does this when acting as a companion, if at all. Vilkas. The brother of fellow lycanthropic Nord Farkas, Vilkas is the one that apparently got the brains out of the genetic pool. Able to hold a conversation past a few words as opposed to his brother, Vilkas is also a master level trainer, this time in the art of two- handed weapons. Also like his brother, Vilkas can be married if a mutant wolf man with a more advanced vocabulary tickles your fancy. Vilkas does offer some more in depth dialogue options compared to his brother, and is considered the most intellectual member of the Companions. He does well in battle against foes, but does lack the same punch that his brother packs, even though he teaches warriors to use some of the most powerful weapons in the game.

While not as powerful as his brother, he is still quite effective in combat, and provides slightly more companionship on the road due to his chatty nature and expanded lexicon. Agris The Bulwark. As one of the only male housecarls in the game, Agris the Bulwark is a pretty worthy companion and also has a gnarly name that would totally suit a Skyrim speed metal band (really hoping this is a thing). He becomes available as a follower once the Dragonborn is appointed a thane of Markarth. He is also available as a marriage option, coming straight out and telling the Dovahkiin that he loves them.
