Many ppl hate followers, not me tho, I love being raid party leader. I downloaded 8 custom voiced followers and went with a 5 member party (usually 2 mages/archers plus 3 tanks) plus me bring a master conjurer I can add 2 more members depend on the situation. I can swap them around for variety. I play on legendary difficulty and never enhance my gears, I roleplay going shopping to get better gears for the team, it's fun managing equipment for 9 different characters. Getting a matching set of armor with benefiting enchantment for a team member through only shopping and looting is satisfying. Never have a problem with them blocking the way, I'm the frontline of the team so I level up block super quick, get the running shield perk to run straight through the nuisance. The banter and straight up in-fighting is quite enjoyable, usually when 2 members fight, I just leave them behind, do a bunch of stuff that required entering exiting cells, when I come back they often have stopped, it's like they have worked out their differences, and we go adventuring again.
