Companions holding what they are good at
« on: January 31, 2012, 05:53:58 am »

As said, companions should hold the type of weapon out that they are good with, that way if someone doesn't want certain companions (like throwing etc) then they hopefully won't pick it just to be a troll.  I know if this had happened I wouldn't have taken 4-5 of the ones I have.  (Unless I'm missing something and you can tell beforehand...possibly using steal on them may work sometimes but not all have items)

True. I for one just disbanded a companion because i didnt want a melee. If i knew that he's melee, i wouldnt even talk to him. And i'm sure some other player would have been happy about the companion. So meh :/

-Cheer to this-
Makes sense too,
I for one, being a energywep pure, stroll around with laser rifle, pistol, or plasmas,
(Sometimes smallweps, and sometimes big, but mainly energy)
And i never even think about melee, unless i cba to waste ammo on a 6/6 hp rat, so i just kick it,
I would never walk around with a melee weapon, to me, it would just not feel right..
So why should companions?
It would save alot of peoples stress.

Yeah, not at all what I said teamabyss.  This has to do with no way of really knowing what is the companions weapon of choice before picking them not making them use weapons they are shitty with.

Indeed, I was just thinking of combat wise with equipped item- Sorry!
