Hello,
since blackwood will arrive on Xbox in two days, I wanted to ask the pc players, which companion would be the best for doing the blackwood quests.
I know they are not, what we had hoped for, but I would like to just have one at my side.
Also, I am not asking who will be the most helpful, but who will level and build up the relationship the best, by doing quests, looting and farming some nodes.
Sorry for my English, it's not my native language.

✭✭They're really about equivalent. It depends on your playstyle.
Biggest consideration is that Mirri the Dark Elf is OK with you stealing, but Bastian the Imperial doesn't like when you steal things.

Lucjan✭✭✭Apart from the passive, they are pretty equal in that regard. Mirri boosts chest loot a bit, but that's about it.
More important, don't set your expectations too high. Level them up a bit, keep them ranged and by level 10 or so you might actually like them. As in actually being useful every now and then.
I didn't intend to use them after reading the forums, but once I got around to give them a try, they did exceed by albeit rather low expectations.1 -
rage607✭✭Thank you all for the answers. I like both of the unique passive perks and I would like to unlock them both in the long run.
Nice to hear that the companions are not as useless, as it often sounds like.0 -

✭They were significantly more useless on PTS, but have received a lot of improvement between then and live. Their skill cooldowns are pretty long so they do a lot of light attacking, and their gear drops extremely slowly so you won't get them fully kitted out and levelled for a loooooong time. Guild daily quests (Mages, Fighters, Undaunted) increase their guild skill lines and their rapport, so consider building those into your play.PC NA, CP2500+. Character creation is the true endgame.1 -

✭✭✭✭✭Mirri is better for straight on DPS, Bastian has better buffs but they come late with his best one at level 17. As far as I know, the passive perks don't actually work as I have never gotten anything from either one.2
