■About the ward system
In combat, if your follower is equipped with a spell, he casts the shout and goes into "Standby mode".
1)Advanced follower's ward method
(Step1)
If you draw the weapon and sneak while backing away, "Slow-time" effct is activated (75%, 3 sec). At the same time, "Magicka Converter" is activated. Your follower converts his current stamina to magicka. "Magicka Converter" is improved with rank up.
(Step2)
During "Slow-time" effct, you can adjust the position and direction.
(Step3)
Your follower teleports to your front and casts the ward spell. After that, he remains in the position. (Magicka costs = 3/sec)
While casting the ward spell, your follower's stamina regeneration stops.
If you move by walking, he will follow your movements. On the other hand, if you move by runing or sprinting, he will finish the casting of the ward spell and return to combat. The same applies if you sneak without moving.
2)Magicka Charge
When your caster follower runs out of his magicka, he restores his magicka at the cost of time. He can continue the combat with spells. "Magicka Charge" is improved with rank up.
There are trigger conditions for "Magicka Charge".
(a) Your follower's base magicka value is 100 or more.
(b) Your follower's current magicka value is 50 or less.
(c) Your follower's right hand equipment is a spell or unarmed.
(d) Your follower is not casting a spell.
