"I can't go through 70+ followers."
Well, not with that attitude.

How to be a great follower in skyrim:
1. Be a cat
2. Be pretty
*3. Or mentally unstable* lol

“Lets Kill Someone”- Cicero

I love cicero and serana so im glad theyre listed as best

[jzargo]

The dragonborn is my favorite follower. He may not be as great and powerfull as J'zargo, but he comes close enough

[tmage]

The correct answer is the Dark Brotherhood Initiate.


Immortal, no back talk, doesn't mind if you break laws

My favourite is Teldryn Sero. He is amazing in combat and i’ve noticed (with me at least) that if a single enemy attacking you in the midst of battle, he’ll come to your aid even if he’s already busy with another. I legit feel protected with him around.

[ripperdjak]

Honestly, Erik the Slayer is one of my favourites. He always has something to say about new locations, and he actually feels like more of a friend then a hired goon, and I really like that.

Erik EASLEY has the best history, the character is framed about a guy who loved TES but he got cancer and died before Skyrim came out, Bethesda added Erik in to pay tribute to the man

Give Marcurio the Arch Mage robes and Morokei and watch him lightning blast all your enemies off the screen.

Video: "There is 72 followers in Skyrim..."
Me: "You mean Lydia?"

[scarymonsterzz]

I’ve always loved Cicero. He’s simply the best, most unique and most fleshed-out companion. He’s funny, has a great backstory AND doesn’t object to you committing crimes like the goodie-two-shoes followers.

*Claps.*

LIDIA! Come carry my useless crap!

[jadedj]

Durnehviir is my favorite "follower". A necromantic zombie dragon is just interesting and his combat style suited my necromancer character quite well.

The Virgin Follower User vs The Chad Solo Dragonborn

[BLK_MN]

Aela: Wanna yiff?
Dragonborn: Oh hell no
J’Zargo: This one wants yiff?
Dragonborn: Hell yes

[iamslightlybetterthanyou]

Just download the Inigo mod for a good follower

[SPIRE_FAN]

Erandur is a redeemed hero archetype done really well. There's a lot of character depth just through his dialogue as you adventure, would love to see him pop up in another game.

Lydia! Even those who kill her with the Mace of Molag Bal, put her soul in Azuras Star and use it to enchant a pair of ebony gauntlets, can't let her go.

[Xfushion]

Serana is the only follower that holds any weight mainly because she's the only one that actually has an arc with the player: both start as complete strangers, then she reluctantly trusts you next thing you know she considers you a friend and by the end she even has feelings for the player but she's afraid of marriage due her vampire ritual. She feels like an actual character all other followers you literaly do a single quest for them and suddenly they consider you their best friend.
To be fair Cicero kinda has an arc too, specially if you find him before joining the brotherhood.

[DeathstroketheTerminator]

I once married Aela but it was way to Alabama for me that she didn't stop to call me brother.
So Serana it was, then I learned I couldn't marry her.
Now I'm hangin'with my boy Cicero playing knives and stuff together
