Which followers affect the Lord's army if equipped on embedded Heroes?

[OMG My Profile Name Does Not Fi]

I got curious so did some testing and as far as I can tell the "-raise dead cost" and "+movement speed" followers if equipped on an embedded follower don't affect the Lord's army. At least the "+movement speed" followers does work on a follower if it has to leave the army. But I am a very surprised that the -raise dead one doesn't work (even if a similar effect isn't equipped on the Lord). It would be better if you couldn't equip it as it is literally useless on a follower now.


So does anyone know which followers equipped on a embedded follower actually affect the Lord's army? Thanks!


EDIT:
Changed banners in original title and post to followers to clarify matters!

Not most of them. :P

Have you made sure to equip it to a unit at the start of a battle before you load in?

I didn't even know banners did anything beyond buffing a single unit or giving them AoE buffs/debuffs in battles.

Ah I'm getting confused OP is talking about followers not banners. My followers and banners all seem to be working correctly and raise dead won't work if it's on a hero because he can't recruit on his own so will need to be embedded for it to work.

My mistake there!

The raise dead follower can be equipped on the hero but does not benefit them or the lord whose army they are in. The movement speed follower does seem to work for a hero so long as it is not embedded in an army but doesn't benefit the army if he is.

there are quite a few other followers and I was wondering if anyone had tested or examined the game-files to see which ones work and which ones don;t.

As a general rule of thumb:

If a bonus states "lord's army/local region" then they will affect the lord/the army even if worn by a hero

If it does not, it just affects the character. If it's sth like raise dead, it's wasted as those can't raise dead.
