Talk:Followers

Leah
The last section says that Leah is a temporary follower without any battle skills. This isn't true, because in both the fight in the tavern and in Adrea's basement, she pulls out a crossbow and attacks the enemies. Can anyone else confirm this? 68.63.170.56 11:44, May 27, 2012 (UTC)
 * Can confirm, I've seen her use the crossbow. Not particularly effective but nobody in that town seems to be.

XP
I don't believe she's even a temporary follower to be quite honest. I believe a follower is one that you can equip with weapons and and armor. They are characters that level up with you and that you can dismiss at any given time. You can't do any of that with Leah. With that said, I would also like to ask a question that kind of dovetails on the same subject. Sort of lol My question is this; When you are equipping your follower with items that grant xp, is that xp shared or is it just for the follower? Smitty 1965 (talk) 18:33, May 10, 2014 (UTC)
 * EXP, Gold Find, and Magic Find items on your follower will also apply to you, however, those items work at only 20% of their listed effect. Ishi Clarke (talk) 19:29, May 10, 2014 (UTC)
 * Is this explained anywhere in-game? Does XP gain you equip benefit follower? Tycio (talk) 19:30, 2 January 2021 (UTC)

Stats
Where do you even view their stats and level up skills? Couldn't figure this out when templar joined me

Never mind, you click the icon on the top-left and can assign skills that way.

Just wasn't immediately obvious, they should tell newbies in case it doesn't occur to them. Tycio (talk) 19:31, 2 January 2021 (UTC)
