Skyrim Companions List
Version 0.3.8
- Added a new conversation with Ria, after the main story questline ends, where, if you've been kind to her (asked for her advice at least once and thanked her for it), you can help her choose her fighting style (class skills and combat style).
- Added the ability to report failure for the 'Animal Extermination' (beast den), 'Family Heirloom' and 'Rescue Mission' radiant quests given by Aela, Vilkas and Skjor.
- Added compatibility with the aMidianborn Content Add-On version of the Skyforge weapons. Also, Eorlund will now offer the Skyforge Warhammer and Mace as choices after the player's induction ceremony when an appropriate aMidianborn mod is installed.
- Added a little more unvoiced dialogue later in the questline, around 'Purity of Revenge' and 'Glory of the Dead,' to address a few internal inconsistencies and allow the PC to ask a few questions that begged to be asked.
- Added a toggle in the MCM to allow magic in sparring, including in Open Circle.
- Added compatibility with the Dawn of Whiterun mod for the Open Circle quest.
- Added some additional debugging info to the Troubleshooting page of the MCM.
- Merged in relevant Companions-related fixes from the Unofficial Skyrim Patch 2.1.2.
Version 0.3.7
- Some new content: a short conversation with Tilma and a small note in Farkas's room.
- For 'Trouble in Skyrim' you can now report back to Farkas that you're unable to complete the quest, if it's too difficult for you. As a penalty, you'll need to do a few extra quests.
- In the opening fight with the giant outside Whiterun, the giant will now be invulnerable the first few seconds of the fight, to give the player more time to get there.
- Changed 'The Silver Hand' quest, so that when you find Skjor at the end he will now be in beast form to better explain the lack of public resolution of the quest's ending. Also there will be more evidence of his passage through Gallows Rock.
- Fixed a vanilla issue where if you did not have access to a witch head for a brothers's 'Purity' quest, the brother could be left unable to offer any radiant quests after 'Glory of the Dead.'
- Fixed a potential exploit in the 'Open Circle' quest: the player will now only be essential during the actual fight, not throughout the quest.
- Fixed a disparity in the sparring system where if you had given your opponent health potions (e.g., if they were your follower), they would use them, although you can't use your own potions.
- Sparring should no longer re-enable fast travel after the match if another mod had previously disabled it.
- Fixed a bug in the quest where Aela regifts the beast blood that can have Aela rejecting your request even if you passed the necessary Speech skill check.
- Fixed some vanilla dialogue quirks: Skjor could commend the PC for 'another job well done' after the PC finished their very first job; Athis would call a female dark elf PC 'brother'; Skjor could say he had never seen the PC before, after talking to them.
- Added the vanilla 'PerkSkillBoosts' and 'AlchemySkillBoosts' perks to all Companions, to enable them to take full advantage of fortify combat skill enchantments as followers.
- Improved the MCM troubleshooter function to cycle a new batch of radiant quests.
- Tweaked the end of 'Glory of the Dead' so that the objective to ask the Companions for more work will now only appear after they've returned to Jorrvaskr and have work available.
- Removed a few unnecessary .pex files that I had packaged with the previous update by mistake.
- Merged in other Companions-related fixes from the Unofficial Skyrim Patch 2.0.4a.
Version 0.3.6
- Fixed a bug where Farkas's 'Hired Muscle' quest was being selected less frequently than intended.
- Made the whelps essential until after the 'Open Circle' quest to prevent issues with that quest.
- Added new custom perks for Aela that increase her attack speed when using daggers or bows, as well as a damage bonus with daggers--to try to get her into the same league, combat-wise, as the other members of the Circle.
Version 0.3.5
- Fixed an issue where Aela's Pelt Collection and Totems of Hircine quests were being selected less frequently than intended. For both, there are 4-day delays upon completion before they re-enter the normal random rotation of quests.
- Fixed a vanilla issue where Aela's Totems of Hircine quests were set to use only uncleared locations, causing the quests to fail to start in late-game situations where no uncleared locations remained available.
Version 0.3.4
- Fixed a bug where setting the skills of a Companion (their class) in the MCM was not persisting across gaming sessions.
- Reduced issues with Athis's armor becoming invisible for new users of the mod, and for upgraders coming from version 0.3.1 and below.
Version 0.3.3
- Fixed a logical flaw where installing another mod that modifies the C00 Companions quest lower in a load order after having already played with ESFC installed would have eliminated the requirements and reset the quest progression system.
- Allow players to circumvent the follower/teammate check when sparring to accomodate mods that use invisible teammates around the PC for other purposes and the UFO mod.
- Made all Companions have 'Foolhardy' confidence so they won't run away when fighting.
- Assigned specific combat styles to Companions who had just been using the default combat style, as per Bethesda recommendations.
- Scaled back the perks on the whelps, and boosted the perks on the Circle members, to better reflect the superiority of the Circle.
Version 0.3.2
- Various stat and gear changes for the Companions.
- Added an MCM option to prevent vampires from joining; the stage of vampirism that will trigger this rejection is configurable.
- Added a toggle in the MCM to let Aela, Farkas and Vilkas give new radiant quests while they are your current follower, unlike in the vanilla game. Note that this does not include their special quests--Dragon Slayers, Purity, and the Totems of Hircine.
- Fixed a bug where the MCM option to configure the Speech skill needed for Thieves Guild members to join the Companions was not working correctly.
- Fixed a bug where Circle members could say their scheduled training instructions even when they were far away from Jorrvaskr.
- Fixed a bug where Companions could wander randomly around Whiterun in some circumstances.
- Fixed a bug in the 'Open Circle' quest where setting your partner as invulnerable was never undone.
- Fixed a vanilla issue where non-following members of the Circle could turn hostile if they saw the player take beast form.
- Fixed a vanilla issue where Aela's Silver Hand quests were set to use only uncleared locations, causing the quests to fail to start in late-game situations where no uncleared locations remained available.
- Fixed a vanilla issue where being asked to intimidate the same NPC a second time could result in no dialogue being available to initiate the brawl.
- Restored a few extra voiced lines to Aela during the Totems of Hircine quests that aren't played in the vanilla game due to some logic errors: she now will make different comments after you find each of the three Totems, as originally intended.
- Restored a voiced line of commentary from your Observer during your Trial that was not playing due to a logic error in the vanilla script.
- Added back in Aela's pelt collection quest after I disabled it by mistake in 0.3.1. Also added the ability to ask her how many pelts are needed before accepting the quest.
- Added a new (brief) unvoiced conversation with Farkas if he was your Trial Observer, available after 'Proving Honor' is completed.
- Added some improvements to Aela's conversation during 'Blood's Honor' to better account for game lore.
- Tweaked 'Glory of the Dead': members of the Circle will only become available as followers after they return to Jorrvaskr from Ysgramor's Tomb, to be consistent with their dialogue about wanting to stay there for a bit.
- Tweaked 'Glory of the Dead': the player's dialogue in the Tomb with Aela was adjusted to make (a little) more sense.
- Added checks with sparring to ensure players don't start sparring matches with their current follower (which doesn't work), or have followers with them when they start sparring someone else (which causes the follower to also attack your opponent).
- Added ally and friendship relationship data between the Companions where appropriate.
- Merged in Companions-related fixes from the Unofficial Skyrim Patch 2.0a.
Version 0.3.1
- Improved interoperability with the Moonlight Tales/Werewolf Mastery combination of mods.
- The 'Purity' quest for Farkas will now only trigger if the PC doesn't have beastblood (this will be expanded on in future updates).

- Fixed a bug in 0.3 where you could get Kodlak to spar with you if you asked twice.

- For Aela's 'Animal Extermination' radiant quests, she can now sometimes tell you what kind of beast you'll be facing before you accept the quest. She can also tell you in advance where the quest location is.
- Added a new random world event where you may be attacked by the Silver Hand after the 'Proving Honor' quest.
- Merged in bug fixes from the Unofficial Skyrim Patch 1.3.2 for Companions quests also modified by ESFC.

- Suppressed some scenes after the Silver Hand quest that suggest Skjor is still in charge of day-to-day activities.

- Added a little more health to the giant outside Whiterun, which should give players a more fair chance to reach it.

Version 0.2.1
- Cleaned the mod in TES5Edit.
- Generated a SEQ file to avoid the load-save-reload dialogue bug.

- Added some unvoiced dialogue in various places for better roleplaying and atmosphere.
- Added the option to block characters who have already joined the Thieves Guild or the Dark Brotherhood from joining the Companions.
- Extended the time Aela mourns at the end of the 'Silver Hand' quest, giving the player a day or two to discuss Skjor with the other Companions.
