Upgrade Your Companions

Art by Nintendo

Companions are great to bring along on heroic adventures, but the gear-based progression in Reclaim the Wild does not always fit with certain companions. For some people, a Dog wielding a rank 3 Sword would be cool; for others, this does not fit with the image they have for their furry friend. Regardless, a Dog attacking with their teeth (a rank 1 Natural Dagger) would likely be more of a hindrance in combat than an asset after a certain point.

For players who want their Companions to keep pace with their Heroes, without resorting to giving their faithful hounds and horses actual armor and weapons, we present this system! It’ll let your Companions improve their damage and defense, without all becoming Okami.
