=/ I have to FORCE Wynne to heal Loghain- as in, I have to set tactics at the top of the list to target him and actually heal him if I don't want him to die. Setting her as a healer has NEVER worked after the Landsmeet. (And no, it's not a mod issue- she did that before i started using them) She also would refuse to use group heal if he was in the party, so I'd have to add that to her tactics as well.
(Granted, if I'm playing a mage, they're usually a bamf combo of spirit healer and spirit/entropy damage, so wynne sits her old ass back at camp.)
With Alistair, I have to tweak his tactics because he's a HORRIBLE tank, and my rogue is often wearing chain mail and has to stack dexterity, because she always pulls off him. Loghain? Not so much. The man is a fantastic tank, and that's not just my natural bias speaking =P When he's in combat, every single target is focused on him and my rogue can slice and stab to her heart's content.
Sten, Oghren, and Zev I set as scrappers, Lel as an archer, and Morrigan as a debilitator- sleep + nightmare= WIN
For awakening, I set Anders myself from scratch- use crushing prison on emissaries, walking bomb on elites or higher, wards, healing, etc. Otherwise, he just uses lightning and arcane bolt and seems to think that lifeward= healing. NO, ANDERS, it DOESN'T. Lazy sexy bastard.
I don't have justice tank- he's worse than Alistair. I just have Oghren stack strength and dex, slap heavy armor on him and have him activate threaten. He holds aggro pretty damn well. Sigrun is defaulted to scrapper, and Nate is an archer (thought darkspawn end up regretting trying to engage him in melee combat)
Velanna, just set her to ranged damager. Her tactics seemed to work decently enough for me.
