Beogh will grant body armours, weapons and ammo to named orcs who lack them (also shields if no 2-handed waepons), and only then. He will also upgrade enchantment and base type of gear for orcs who have these, though with few rules:
- from 1-handed to 2-handed only when no shield
- if he decides to give ranged weapons, it will be arbalest if no shield, tomahawks otherwise (or ammo to already possessed slings/blowguns/hand crossbows, but he won't give those)
- he will never upgrade base type from/to demon weapons or artefacts (but will upgrade enchantment on a demon weapon)
- only case when he'll change the weapon category is sbl->lbl
It seems that orcs cannot wear other armour items, such as boots, gloves, cloak or helmets. They as well cannot be given rings, granted wands, quaff potions.
Yes, just body armours, shields, weapons and ammo.
Interestingly, he even grants weapons if the named orc follower have one already.
Liek he granting a +1 glaive to a halberd-wielding knight.
He won't give your halberd-wielding orc a glaive, but instead upgrade the halberd, conserving its brand and enchantment (possibly also adding some enchantment, but not brand).
Does Beogh grant branded weapons or armour
No, only upgrades already-branded gear.
does grants/improves shields
Yes, both, and both base type and enchantment.
Interestingly, he'll also upgrade troll/dragon hides to armour, and then the armour's enchantment, but never gifts those.
Also a fun fact: -tele equipment on an orc doesn't prevent recall (a bug maybe?).

You can always send them to death from monsters
