So, I'm going to break this down one part at a time.

It is intentional for Hirelings to high-five when they kill or knock down an enemy. Some Hirelings do it every time, some Hirelings do not. I intend to eventually make that something that only has a chance to happen, even for Hirelings with the relevant behaviour.

For your Disquieted, this is the result of a behaviour called DynamicSwap, a behaviour that makes the character swap weapons if they aren't in the effective range of their current weapon. This basically means that if they're holding a melee weapon and not close to an enemy, they'll swap, and if they're holding a ranged weapon while being in melee range, they'll swap. The easiest solution to this issue is to give them a ranged sidearm, as the DynamicSwap behaviour is prone to issues if they don't have both a melee and ranged weapon.

Okay thank you, the dynamicswap behaviour seems buggy because the disquieted is a melee origin no reason for him to not use the weapons i give him rather pick one up from the ground and then repeatedly switch it instead of hitting someone while close range.
