Any way to access your follower's stats??

[Frequens]

As the title suggests, I'm looking for a reliable and convenient method of retrieving info about my follower's stats such as current level, perks and skills, positive/negative magic effects (e.g. diseases and resistances), powers available, faction relations etc.

Is there a mod or utility that would let me do that?

Reason I'm asking is, having your favorite follower around and managing them is kinda confusing: sometimes, NPCs start fighting wth them for no obvious reason, they seem to contract diseases when fighting certain enemies, and often enough a supposedly high-level follower gets beaten by crappy bandits and goes to their knees more often than I can count, which is frustrating af. If anyone knows of a preferably lightweight and uncomplicated mod, it would be much appreciated if you could point me in the right direction. Thanks.

Nether's Follower Framework is a powerful follower management tool and allow you to inspect stats and alter combat behavior (along with a bunch of other stuff)

If your vanilla followers are routinely getting clobbered, there are skill level uncappers on nexusmods, or get a custom follower, many of whom are devastating in combat.

wow thanks a bunch dude! I didn't even know that mod existed, LOL

NFF may be exactly what I was looking for. Not overly complex and not too game changing as I like to keep my mod list ultra slim (running just 32 mods tbh). In fact, it looks simple enough for just installing it mid-game to check a companion's stats occasionally and remove it afterwards. Superb!

I mostly prefer the trio Illia, Aela and Ingjard as they suit my playstyle best, plus the latter has no level cap if one can trust the numerous online sources. 'Bijin Warmaidens' is pretty much the only follower overhaul I've been using and there have been no issues with it. Only thing I found weird is when I enter a location with them such as inns, random npcs would turn hostile and attack them for no reason, or when encoutering bandit chiefs who sometimes one-shot my follower who should actually be able to tank a good load of damage. A tool like NFF will certainly come in handy when keeping track of my followers' progress.
