Sharp

Ember is my favorite but of these it's Sharp.

I think I will like Zerith a lot but I don't have him yet.

Sharp

Sharp, because of Brandon Keener doing his Garrus voice. Garrus (Mass Effect) is one of my all-time favorite fictional characters, up there with Aragorn, Miles Vorkosigan, and Tyrion Lannister. Plus, Sharp's personality meshes best with mine.

"Let's just do what we came here for and get out of here."
"Can't even hear myself think here."
"Ah. People. Great."
"Is it always this crowded?"

Sharp is my healer. But I'm using Azander the most right now because he's tanking IA for me.

How do you have your Zander set up? I've heard from people he makes a miserable tank, so I'm curious. I use Bastion exclusively for tanking currently. But his chain becomes annoying sometimes since he has a habit of pulling at the wrong times.

All heavy, mostly vigorous, a few bolstered where I haven't been able to find purple vigorous (or too $$).

Provoke / On Guard / Ritual of Salvation / Scathing Rune / Crimson Font
I have a taunt double-slotted because the most important thing is he not lose taunt on a marauder. This is the only way I've found to make that almost guaranteed. I don't think I've seen him lose taunt on a marauder since I made that change.
If I'm using him on a world boss or something, I swap that out, usually for another heal.

Sharp, cool as ice.

Mirri

Overall, Mirri wins the title of best BFF forever. But there are specific roles in which I favor different companions.

First, the most obvious: if I want a fishing buddy, I give Sharp a call. He'd be an adventuring pal too if he didn't chastise me about my gear breaking. I love his remark "Skill issue".

Infinite Archive: Isobel is my choice, as she's moderately equipped and enjoys combat. I grew a bit tired of Mirri's reluctance to partake in what Filer Eru calls "a fine time for bloodshed and violence".

Honorable nerd mention: Bastian loves books. Enough said.

Zerith-var

Zerith is the companion I have been waiting for, Khajiit that looks like a white tiger, wonderfull voice acting, wonderfull personality and as a cherry on top a necromancer that follows Azura!

Besides him I liked Ember and bastian a lot too and Azandar also grew on me (specially as a nice tank). Sharp is also up there, don't use him myself but my partner does so I can still enjoy his comments.

Tanlorin.

Looks really pretty in the Passion Dancer costume. Beautiful tats, but shame about their hair.
Sounds good with their upbeat, rebellious-teenager chatter.
As far as rapport goes, mostly likes the things that I like. And Tan doesn't moan at me for going into the mages guild.
I really like the way their story quests end, with Tanlorin definitively taking ownership of their own life, their own soul magic and their own tattooed body. I can relate to that.

A pity Tan's houseguest is so drab and downbeat in comparison.

Sharp

The Argonian funny because I main Dark Elves

Zerith-Var would be number one if not for a small detail, he is a hypocrite when it comes to Vampires, the guy is an undead Necromancer and condemns you for being Immortal.
