Companion

Introduction
The Neverwinter companion system is a hired-helper system available for all characters. At rank 16, the introductory quest "A Companion" becomes available from Sergeant Knox in Protector's Enclave. This quest is not required to use the companion system as companions acquired via trade, auction, zen store, promotion, or other means can be used as soon as a character completes the tutorial.

All companions are initially obtained as items in your inventory. Double clicking the companion item will activate it. Companions range from simple mercenary humanoids to glowing stones to various monstrous creatures. A single companion can be summoned at any time to help you in combat. Each character in a five-player group can summon their own companion. If a companion runs out of health during combat, it can be revived by approaching it and reviving it similarly to a fallen player, or it will automatically resurrect after a short amount of time has passed. If combat ends while a companion is dead, it will automatically revive with maximum hit points.

Companions can be purchased for Gold, Astral Diamond, Zen, Seals, Ardent Coins, Trade Bars, Glory or found as rare drops in any queued content. Unique companions are also included in several of the games purchasable Packs.

Management UI


1. Switches left companion panel to view the active companion's Rating Additions and Powers.

2. The companion type (top) and the specific, player-given name (bottom).

3. Dropdown to swap the appearance of the summoned companion. Every companion has 4 different appearances. The 2nd appearance unlocks when the companion is rank or higher, the 3rd at  or higher, and the 4th at  and higher.

4. This tells what the player's total Companion Bolster percentage is (top), and how much Item Level the summoned companion gives (bottom). The Bolster is based on the 10 highest ranked companions the player has, and has a maximum value of 100% when the player has 10 companions in their Roster. The total Item Level is based on the Bolster percentage and the rank of the summoned companion.

5. This button allows the player to summon a different companion. All obtained companions will be listed.

6. Opens a dropdown with a few options. These options include Upgrading Summoned Companion, Dismissing Summoned Companion, and Renaming the summoned companion (this costs 6,000).

7. Players can equip 3 separate Companion Equipment here. Each piece of gear has up to 2 Runestone slots. All the companion gear and runestone stats will be added directly to the player's stats as long as a companion is summoned.

8. These are the Companion Enhancement and Player Bonus slots. Players can equip one Enhancement (purple, top left), one Offense Player Bonus (orange slot, position varies by class), one Defense Player Bonus (darker blue slot, position varies by class), one Utility Player Bonus (green slot, bottom right), and two Universal Player Bonuses (lighter blue slots, position varies) which can be either Offense, Defense or Utility.

9. This button opens the Companion Roster which allows players to check all obtained companions. In the Roster, right-click any companion icon to open an options dropdown which allows players to Summon, Upgrade, Rename, Favorite, Protect, or Delete the companion. The gear icon in the bottom left allows the player to display all companions, or just their favorite companions. It also lets the player sort the Roster by companion Quality or by given name.

10. The "Apply to All Loadouts" button allows the player to apply the current loadout's summoned companion, equipped companion gear, and all Enhancements and Player Bonus Powers to all other loadouts.

Companion Stats
All summoned companions give a certain percentage of their listed stats (e.g. Power, Defense, Forte) to the player. Augment companions give additional stats to the player, but do not actively attack or contribute to combat. Non-augment companions, often called active companions, give fewer overall stats, but actively attack and contribute to combat.

Active Power
Active Powers are the abilities automatically used by the summoned companion. For a list of Active Powers, See Active Powers.

Enhancement Power
Enhancement Powers are a feature introduced in Module 16: Undermountain. Enhancement Powers are passive, and only one can be selected at any given time. For list of Enhancement Powers, See Enhancement Powers.

Player Bonus Power
Active Bonuses were migrated to Player Bonus Powers in Module 16: Undermountain. Bonus Powers are classified as Offense, Defense and/or Utility Powers. Bonus Powers are passive and 5 can be chosen and active at any given time: 1 Offense, 1 Defense, 1 Utility, and 2 Universal (any). For a list of companion bonuses, see Bonus Powers.

Companion Advancement
Companions can range from to  in rarity, and any companion can be upgraded using either Astral Diamonds or Companion Upgrade Tokens for prices as listed in the following table. The higher the rank of a companion, the higher the Companion Bolster percentage it gives.
