I'm trying to do a set-up were my people bring as many of the enemies down at range as their melee charge us, but then as they reach melee for everybody to switch to two-handers, swords and shields, or dual-wielding, depending wether rogue or warrior respectively. But I don't know how to do this automatically, on my own character I have assigned a button so I click x and I change from archer to dual wielding, but I don't know how to make it so Leliana, or the others do it automatically. I can make them start at ranged and then switch to melee instantly, but not then return to ranged the second the meleeing target is dead.

I want it to kind of be like the moment in Lord of the Rings when they charge the elves, and they shoot them with arrows downing many of them, and then clash into them with melee weapons, not having an ogre swatting somebody trying to fire a bow back at them.

so if anybody could help me it would be deeply appriciated  Image IPB

Let me save you some time really quickly:

Archer to 2H = Impossible, at best you'll have archers that can't take anything down at range and then get cut to ribbons in melee. 2H requires quite a deal of STR to get most of the talents and on top of that 2H is a talent-spamming tree. If you get the 2H talents you'll lack points for the Archery talents and vice versa. If you're dead set on it though, I'd go Dwarven Warrior for this setup.

Archer to SS is much more viable. You should invest about 40 points into STR so you can get Heavy armor and then pump the rest into dexterity. It won't be a perfect build, but it will be a good one. Human Warrior recommended.

Archer to DW is probably the most effective choice since they both rely on Dex and not on Str at all! Just grab 24 STR for your light armor and pump the rest into Dex for a combination of high defense and damage, make sure you use dual daggers though.

How to make them switch automatically? Follow these steps:

1. Set their behavior to Ranged, that way they'll prefer the use of their ranged weapons but will switch to melee if you order them.
2. Set their first tactic to Self>Being attacked by a melee attack>Switch to Melee Weapons
3. Set their second tactic to Enemey> Target at Short Range>Attack

It's not a perfect setup and it will require sacrificing 3 tactic slots for, but if you want it that's the only way I've found so far :D

Ok thanks, I've done that now :) and it works, thanks :)

I have myself and Leliana, both very skilled archers, with Alistar and the dwarf shooting too, and then combat hits and the dwarf goes into nutter mode, alistar tank, and rogues go DW. This really does what i want thanks, now when I get charged its 4 people suppressing fire, which gets ALOT of shots out, and then eventually a bit of a massacre from both sides, as nobody has any points in constitution :) but thanks again for the tactics
