Companion commands

Ephemeraldeception
Very little documented about this except use Y key for ultimate.
I want to command my companion to eg pull a lever, stand somewhere, stand on a plate. I read you should be able to press Y + left or right mouse click in // but doesn't interact at all.

Any info/links or suggestion?

    Companions cannot be used to interact with levers or plates or anything. You can just use the pet commands to order them to attack a specific enemy (Y+LMB the enemy) or call them back (Y+RMB).

    They need a 'go stand in the next room' (or similar) command too

    They are ALMOST as bad as bears for standing on things you want to interact with!

    Well it states we should be able to command them to engage / disengage and move. I tried to get one to stand on one of the 2 plates in direfrost so it can be soloed once again. No Luck but a main selling point was assisting in solo/duo dungeons.

    from guide:
    Directing Companions in Combat

    While Companions will always attempt to engage in combat when you are attacked, utilizing pet commands allows you to direct the Companion to engage with specific targets or tell them to pull back, respectively. By default, on keyboard and mouse you can do this by holding the “Y” key and left- or right-clicking, or on controller by pressing the L3+R3 buttons along with the left or right bumper
    .

    In addition, performing a heavy attack will also cause your Companion to switch to your target.


    Some commands via command line would be useful eg companion sit / stand / runaway /

    Looks like a lot of room for improvement till the reality catches up to the hype.

    The thing is that if you push Y (or in my case R) + left MB he will fire his ultimate before attacking....... UNBELIEVABLE

    It’d be nice to have a “follow at a distance” command.

    Companions REALLY likes to stand on top of levers, puzzle cubes, right next to quest givers etc.

    How do you have a companion have tank builds without commands like /attack target? This dose not seem thought out but just slapped on last min thought.

    There is a toggle in Gameplay Settings that disables Companion's automatic Ultimate casting.
