A Standalone 100 points slottable CP Star at the left elbow bend that lets you have two companions active at a time while you are not in a group. When more Companions are added, have a secondary connected 100 points slottable CP Star for up to three companions active at a time while you are not in a group. So if you want to have 3 Companions following then you need to spend 200 CP and two warfare slots equipped. I think that's a fair sacrifice for it.
