I hear alot of talk about Lydia as a companion. Anyone else, carrying along Mjoll the Lioness as a companion?
She's become my favorite. She may go down every so often in a fight, but I have yet to see her die. Her ambient dialogue is way better than Lydia's. She always has a one or two sentence story to offer. Talks about her mother training her with a sword and how she misses her father. She even offers custom dialogue. Just today, when we entered some dungeon, she said: "There could be Dragr about, I can smell the decay in the air." Sure enough, soon thereafter we got swarmed.
But, I have to say my favortie line of all from her (especially comparing her to Lydia) is: "No problem, I can carry a good bit of gear."
Anyway, I'm a Mjoll fan, and she and my PC will be wed soon. I intend to keep her as a companion while Lydia sits in our bedroom stuffing her face.
Yeah since companions have some sort of wierd problem where stats don't level, I had to finally retire lydia. She is now free to my breezehome and to treat it as her own.
Mjoll on the other hand has stats that vary from 90 to 50 with no( warrior) skills below that. I believe she even had 90 twohanded but I would have to check again.
(for those who want to know your companions stats, open the console, click on them, and type the command "getav *chosenskill*" without stars of course. For example, (getav heavyarmor).
In any case I like mjoll, she has a sexy accent, she is strong but not overbearing, and is currently with me hunting necromancers. (There can only be one major necromancer here!, since I myself am a necromancer.) However I agree that she talks too much, which wouldn't be too bad but she repeats the same story multiple times. The only saving grace is when you are in dungeons and she warns you of danger.
