What Companion do you want to see next?

Apollosipod · March 2

Personally, I'd love to see a new companion that leans to my the darker side. So far most of the companions have been firmly aligned to the good side of things. I'd like to see a Werewolf, a very brutal Orc, or a Vampire.

What do you guys want?

WerewolfMoonHunter · March 2

I would like to see an werewolf companion or at least an Hircine follower companion.

o_Primate_o · March 2

Dremora companion

LunaFlora · March 2

any new companions will probably make me happy.

but i do have some specific wishes:
- Bosmer, preferably Warden. Would also be cool if they are the first Werewolf companion and if their quests involve Hircine.

- Maormer,
Would be funny if they were subclassed Warden, Sorcerer, Arcanist for Wind, Thunder, Tentacle magic. But anything is good.
Would be ideally after we get a Pyandonean zone though.

- Vampire. a Sanguine vampire specifically, that worships or worshipped Sanguine.

- Psijic mage. any 2 class lines with the Psijic skill line.

- Reachfolk. ideally after the Markarth dlc becomes base game.
- Dagi Khajiit

- any humanoid Daedra. really any of them could be interesting.
• Skaafin.
• Dremora.
• Nocturnal Shrike.
• Spiderkith.
• Dark Seducer.
• Golden Saint.
• Xivkyn.
• Xivilai.
a Shardborn Dremora would be fun for a partial sequel to Gold Road.

A useful companion, that does damage?

Enemy-of-Coldharbour · March 2

I want one I can create using the character builder. It doesn't even need dialogue.

Enemoriana · March 2

I'd love to get any new companions. Finding what changes their rapport, while there is yet no full info, is one of most enjoyable thing for me in ESO (and I write guide for it in my native language), no matter if I like companion itself.

As for what I want...
- werewolf companion, worshipper of Hircine. Or maybe it could even be quest with choices, where we can help him/her decide how they feel about their lycantropy, is it gift or curse?
- Dark Brotherhood companion. Somebody who you will really be able to have nearby while doing criminal things! Not "oh, you can kill, but not with Blade of Woe", "yeah, stealing is cool and... HOW CAN YOU SLEEP AFTER TAKING THIS!", "what? you got bounty?! Bad, bad Vestige!". Only Azandar is now safe, but he doesn't approve anything related too (and I don't like him).

From races I want male dunmer and female imperial. Most beaitiful for me. But not khajiit until all other races will be added, as we alreasy have two.

And from what is written before, I liked sanguine vampire, reachfolk and maormer.

None. They should work on new content and improving performance.

Erickson9610 · March 2

I really want a Companion who is a Werewolf. There are two main reasons why:

Because I want to build around their Werewolf toolkit, which should be interesting given that the player's Werewolf toolkit is getting a refresh in Update 50. They would still need a human form, naturally, but they should also be able to shapeshift into a Werewolf and start using Companion versions of Werewolf skills.
Because the general concept of lycanthropy carries themes like the duality of man and identity which can be very interesting to expand upon for a character's storyline.

I think a Werewolf Companion could easily become a fan favorite if they're written well and have a useful toolkit. I've wanted a follower who is a werewolf ever since I played TES V: Skyrim, but even the followers who have lycanthropy in that game never use it in combat.

Plus, I'd like if they counted towards your "Call of the Pack" passive while they are transformed, letting you stay in Werewolf form longer with them in your group, and they could have a unique Werewolf form appearance that you could unlock as a Skill Style for your own Werewolf Transformation ability.

Carcamongus · March 2

I want a companion who is more on the grey side of morality without being outright evil. A vampire would be nice, a skeleton capable of wearing armor even better (fond memories of Bobby Bones follower for Skyrim). I'm fairly sure I have better odds at the lottery than getting these wishes, but oh well...

IviRo · March 2

Personally, I would like a companion who is similar in character to Abnur Tharn or Lyranth.

He possessed dark magic, shadow magic, and Daedric summoning abilities, and could cast Negate.
The main thing is that the companion has well-developed AI.
most importantly, it should be Altmer, Imperial or Dremora.

Malyore · March 2

I don't think Zerith Var can be topped. I'm not even sure if I want someone else.

I would love to have a companion with Abnur Tharn's cutting wit.

theoverseer · March 2

An Altmer that acts and speaks like one. /s

But really a Bosmer warden, as LunaFlora suggested.

CaiWenji · March 2

Sload

spartaxoxo · March 2

A Wood Elf Werewolf
A Nord Vampire

AScarlato · March 2

I would have liked the new Vampire & Werewolf npcs they are adding as companions, along with on-demand bites from them.

I'm assuming any new companions will be cash-shop, so why not add some functionality. I also like their designs specifically.

tiriusavarao · March 2

An Alfiq. And ideally they would float behind us on a little flying carpet while casting spells and/or making a melee weapon attack through magic.

TX12001rwb17_ESO · March 2

A Vampire, not a self-loathing one either but one who is proud of being a Vampire and enjoys when you feed on people.

BardokRedSnow · March 2

Id kinda prefer they reuse some of the ones we already have, though new ones are always nice, more options. But personally I'd love to see Mirri get the items others have gotten, the permanent letters. And would like to see her get another adventure with new dialogue.

Im sure there's people who would like the same with others already in the game as well.

Faltasë · March 2

I agree with the Orc addition, we do need a companion orc.

I would love to see a wood-elf companion personally.

tomofhyrule · March 2

Even though I wouldn't use it, a murderhobo Companion would be a fun one for a lot of people. I could totally see them making that a DB companion (so using Blade of Woe aka Companion Incap as an Ultimate). It'd also be interesting for them to combine that with a vampire so they have two NB lines and a line of Vamp.

But of course what I really want is more Classes, and you would by definition need Companions to go with those...

I'm still hardcore on the Artificer train, and honestly I think there's an existing character that they could just convert into an Artificer Companion without affecting the game too much: Ugron gro-Thumog. He's one of the Antiquarians, so it would make a lot of sense for him to have an Artificer skillset, and for him to go out into the world with you. His rapport stuff could easily focus on Dwemer ruins and antiquities, and then he could have some extra fun dialogue in Wrothgar or areas where there's an Orcish presence. He'd make sense with pretty well any of the weapon types. His perk could be something like "increased Lead drop rates" which would make him an instant success. And the fact that he only shows up in the Antiquarian lodge means they could easily just delete him from that area without affecting anything so he's not showing up multiple times.

ZomZom · March 2

Thalmor.

SilverBride · March 2

I rarely use my companions but do use Azandar to tank if I'm soloing world bosses or dungeons or the IA, so I really don't need more. But I would get a new one if it could be a romantic interest for me. I'd definitely have to create them to look like someone my characters would be interested in, though.

Syldras · March 2

Personally? A male Altmer or Dunmer. Morally grey. The scholarly type. Vampirism would also be fine, but not required.

But generally, I think it would be fair to release companions of the remaining races first.

The_Meathead · March 2

Orc, Nord, or Bosmer, we really need any and all.

Preferably one that is an archetype of their race and not completely opposed to everything that has ever been presented about it in Lore. Outliers are fine and dandy, but when we only get one (if that) of each race as a Companion I'd sure rather have one that didn't try so desperately hard to break the mold, just for the sake of difference.

Don't give me a peacenik Orc or a vegan Bosmer.

GloatingSwine · March 2

A Nord Skald.

His skill lines should be Mead (debuffs and damage), Milk (heals and buffs), and Mayhem (brawling attacks).

SwordOfSagas · March 2

I want a nord,

yeah we need this!

A vampire with a personality similar to Elam Drals.

Evil_Rurouni · 1:49AM

We already have 8 companions, fully filling the 8 slots we have on the wheel for them.

Unless ZoS give us a second wheel, I've zero interest in adding more because I've zero room to slot them.
