🔥 Questions regarding companion equipment

1.) Does weapon damage improve companion damage (same for armor = def) or just the weapon/armor stats and/or effects/procs apply?

2.) Do gear upgrades and awakening apply when equipped by pets? How about transcended gears? Gems?

3.) How does equipping companions affect mounted classes (e.g. Cata, SR, Hacka)?

//

4.) Will there be slotted flying companions? (if the NCP/free one ie. Hawk isn’t already)

5.) What’s the difference in terms of item equipment between free/NPC companions (e.g. Hoglan) and ones that can only be bought through TP (e.g. Penguin)? Equipment slots?

6.) Can the companion be switched to another character (through lodge) while it is equipped?

If anyone has questions to add, please feel free to reply as well. I’ll update this post once answers start coming in.

TIA!

Companion item slot equip info:
Velheldr : 1 weapon slot
Hoglan : 1 weapon slot, 1 armour slot
Guinea pig: 2 armour slot
Penguin (and other TP pet) : 2 weapon, 2 armour


Yes, stats should apply. For sure elemental damage weapons applies.

Thanks grey! Updated my post.

Premium pets have 2 slot for both armors and weapons, Im waiting for hookers and RMT whales to use their +15 and above with stage 10 trans equipment on their pets, more drama and more exploits to come, hue~ :sparkles:

Premium pets with double the equipment slots may seem not that strong now, but who knows what equipment will be available down the road :slight_smile: When IMC fixes the pet AI the advantage will become more obvious :grinning:

i thought trans equip can’t be put on companions…

anyway i hope the AI gets fixed, maybe grinding/leveling with a pet on higher maps can be a thing… inb4 pet powerful enough to kill up R8 mobs

what about falcons? :confused:

I want to pump AoE def onto my pet so it eats 99% of all AoE damage instead of me, It probably should be done by everyone on pvp enviroments ;p

I think you can’t send your companion back to the lodge if you have equipments on it…otherwise it wouldn’t make sense having team storage as a token exclusive feature.

Haha thanks for the idea!

Added your question (#6).

4.) Does it (the effect of equipping gear) work the same for land (e.g. Velheider) and flying (e.g. Hawk) companions?

They are both companions, the stats should work the same o_O

Thanks, changed that question.

While true I saw a video of the hawk having only one armor slot…

Usefull…

Good to know, the video answers question number 4

4.) Will there be slotted flying companions? (if the NCP/free one ie. Hawk isn’t already)

But what I said still remains the same, they both work the same, but Falcon doesn’t have weapon slots.

@ZeroFoxGiven

About question 2:

2.) Do gear upgrades and awakening apply when equipped by pets? How about transcended gears? Gems?

Pets can’t equip transcended gears, it’s written in the patch notes:

Do gear upgrades and awakening apply

It should, not sure about gems.

I’m way too curious about if range extension that spear have work for pets. More over, if that extra range works, does it make hunter skills a little mroe reliable since the doge won’t have to pathfind its way right next to the enemy without doing anything since it can now bite from a bit further away?

That’s a REALLY good question :O, but I think a Hunter 3 Falconer 3 can answer the question for us already if they have Aiming.
