She doesn't seem to be all that interested in armour but she will wear different gauntlets and boots. At the moment mine is wearing that really cool Carved Nord stuff, but she didn't put on the armour, or the helm. Also no matter what weapon I give her she still favours the sword.

The basic armor rating of the torso piece has to be greater that of her Vampire Royal Armor. Her VPA has a base rating of 70 I believe, so if you have some armor that is rated at 71, she will wear that instead of her default armor.

Thanks :) I think I will keep her in her vampire armour, as I like the way it looks.

Try giving her a dragon priest mask, a little trick dagmar showed me with Erandur. I'm sure it'll work with other followers as well.
Serana is the coolest follower on the game imho and the only one out of 3 i use.

I don't mind her as a follower:) after Marcurio that is.
OH! Can someone tell me where she goes if you tell her "It's time for us to part ways"? Just so I can find her again when I want her as a follower. I need to hire Marcurio again so I can marry him ;)

Another question. I put on the amulet of Mara and a dialogue option came up for serana asking her if she ever thought about marriage... am I proposing to her?!?!?! Does she accept? LOL!

Don't think She'll ever accept unless with mods for it or if Bethesda patches for it.BTW if you part ways with her where she goes depends on what side you chose. Fort dawnguard if with them and castle volkihar if with them.

Thanks. Yeah I had a read and apparently a LOT of people were not very happy about her not being marriageable :)

Tbh I'm both glad and sad she isn't marriable.I just feel that what happens in the quest line.kinda.leads.to some.kind of relationship but at the same time to have someone like her as.just another house wife kinda ruins her character.

I know exactly what you mean. My last character married Farkas from the companions and he always looked so lonely sitting there without his companions. Even though I owned every house and was based in Riften I kept him at Whiterun just so he was close to home..lol.

I've only married once and that was for the achievement. Most of the good to decent looking women in the game are usually better left single and as followers.if I want marriage in game I'll just rp it.much better and more fulfilling.

There's another thing that I think sucks about Serana. When you meet Lord Harkon and all the other Volkihar members, they all seem very fond of their powers and express a lot of love for feeding on humans and seducing them and they take pride in their own race and want us to get rid of all the "fake" vampires, so if you are aiming to be an evil character, then the other vampire NPCs really do give you a taste of that. Serana doesn't seem to care, she just complains about how the sun dries up her skin and how her blood is always being used as a weapon. There's nothing about her that gives you a sense of being evil. I get that she's neutral and takes your side whether you join Volkihar or Dawnguard, but she just comes across as being flat compared to all the other characters. They should have given us a vampire companion who is a bit more sinister.

Honestly, I love Serana so much that my character and her consider themselves unrelated sisters because they get on so much. I pity her a lot because of her dark past, and how she never really had the chance a normal kid could have growing up. So therefore I take it upon myself to spoil Serana rotten at every chance my character gets!

My character is wearing Royal Vampire Armor and Vampire Boots with Harkons Sword. Pretty moderate...whilst Serana is wearing helmetless Ebony Armor with the Aetherial Crown and a maxed out improved Ebony Sword. She looks gorgeous! I figured she deserved the crown more than me because she helped me a lot on my quest to get it. My character isn't a vampire anymore and I don't think she will be ever again, but that doesn't stop her from taking Serana along wherever she goes.

I love Serana's attitude towards things and I always give her a shove when she complains about the weather or some other thing. I honestly think she's one of the best created characters in the game and she's the only follower that I can bear to have around because I think she's unique in her own way.

I just don't understand why so many people hate her? Yes, she's a little bratty and annoying, yes she gets in the way and reanimates every corpse she see's: but that's what makes Serana her! Anyone else out there just love Serana and can't bear to go on an adventure alone without her? Also, what have you dressed your Serana in, I'm curious!
She's an excellent character, I was disappointed she's not a marriage option, doesn't really make sense why not, she's the perfect wife for a vampire lord.
I don't think people give the dragonborn followers much of a chance though, frea is very similar to serana in how she comments and behaves and she's the toughest melee follower in the game, the dunmer merc is very good too

I love Serana and take her literally everywhere. The only downside I see with her is that she weakens your Vampire Drain powers as a vampire when shes with you. I actually share a lot of things in common with her. As for what I dressed her in? I basically just dumped my Ancient Shrouded Armor on her due to the Beast Races hood bug.
