■About the ward system

1)Advanced follower's ward method
In combat, if your follower is equipped with a spell, he casts the Shout and goes into "Standby mode".

(Step1)
If you draw the weapon and sneak while backing away, the slow effect is activated (0.75, About 2 sec). At the same time, your follower activates "Magicka Converter", converting his current stamina to Magicka. The conversion rate improves with rank up.

(Step2)
During the slow time, you can adjust the position and direction. In addition, during the slow time, if you sneak while backing away once more, you can cancel the activation. Cancel means that You can only activate "Magicka Converter".

(Step3)
Your follower teleports to your front and casts the ward spell. After that, he maintains that position. Magicka costs of the ward spell is 3 per second. Also, while casting the ward spell, his stamina regeneration stops.
If you move by walking, he will follow your movements.
If you move by runing or sprinting, he finishes the casting of the ward spell and returns to combat. The same applies if you sneak without moving.

*You can activate for about 12 seconds even after the end of the combat. 

2)Rank up
Your follower's skill value improves "Magicka Converter" performance.

Rank1 [No conditions]
 Rate (Stamina : Magicka = 1 : 2)

Rank2 [Destruction(40)]
 Rate (Stamina : Magicka = 1 : 3)

Rank3 [Destruction(70)]
 Rate (Stamina : Magicka = 1 : 4)
