    It's a bug noted in the patch notes. In overland you're supposed to be able to summon companions up to a total of 12 (6 players + 6 companions). But it's currently limiting the groups to 4 when considering whether to summon a companion or not.

    I'm a bit ticked it hasn't been fixed yet. This is a pretty big bug.

    I believe so. You can use them in trials with 11 people

    It was listed as a known issue with the Blackwood patch notes,so something they mean to fix but haven't.

    I thought you could only use them as extra "players" if, for instance, in a trial you're down one or two people; at that point two players could summon companions.

    @Starlight_Whisper - were the 4 of you actually grouped for the WB? In that case, I believe it's not possible to have any companions. But if there were just 4 people, ungrouped, then the companion should have been okay.

    And keep in mind, I could be totally wrong!

    Yeah I was almost willing to go kill 30 world bosses but then this happened

    I was very confused when it first happened. Then I found a thread in the Bug forums that mentioned it and linked the patch notes.

    The thing is, it works in Trials with no problem. It's just everywhere else that it's broken.
