Embark on a thrilling adventure through Eora's treacherous Living Lands with the aid of four unique companions in Avowed. Each companion boasts a distinct personality and customizable abilities, enhancing your gameplay experience. Let's explore each recruitable companion:
Kai: Encountered early in Dawnshore, near Paradis, Kai, a formidable ex-mercenary with a surprisingly tender side, is your first true companion. His tank-like capabilities in combat, coupled with his fire-based abilities to clear obstacles and uncover hidden treasures, make him an invaluable asset. His upgradeable abilities include:
- Fire and Ire (Active): A powerful blunderbuss shot that stuns and taunts a single enemy.
- Unbending Defense (Active): Regenerates health and boosts damage reduction.
- Leap of Daring (Active): A stunning, taunting leap attack affecting nearby enemies.
- Second Win (Passive): Revives Kai with 50% health upon death.
Marius: Found in Dawnshore, Marius shares a history with Kai and possesses expert hunter and tracking skills. His abilities blend seamlessly into both narrative and gameplay, aiding in locating loot and crafting materials. A skilled archer and dagger wielder, he can also manipulate nature to ensnare foes. His upgradeable abilities include:
- Binding Roots (Active): Roots an enemy in place.
- Heart Seeker (Active): A piercing shot that ignores obstacles.
- Shadow Step (Active): A triple-strike attack after vanishing in smoke.
- Wounding Shots (Passive): Inflicts bleeding on enemies.
Giatta: Recruited later in the Emerald Stair region's Fior settlement, Giatta is an animancer whose magic plays a crucial role in the main quest. Her support abilities in combat, including healing, shielding, and buffing allies, are invaluable. Her unique ability, Spectral Jolt, activates Essence Generators, revealing hidden paths and loot. Her upgradeable abilities include:
- Purification (Active): Heals allies for 25% of their maximum health.
- Barrier (Active): Provides allies with a temporary health shield.
- Acceleration (Active): Increases ally movement and attack speed.
- Reconstruction (Passive): Heals allies slightly with each attack.
Yatzli: The final companion, found in Thirdborn within the Shatterscarp region (though she may be encountered earlier), Yatzli is a damage-dealing magic user. Her spells excel at both single-target and area-of-effect damage, and she can also clear path obstructions. Her upgradeable abilities include:
- Essence Explosion (Active): An explosive arcane attack.
- Minoletta’s Missile Battery (Active): A volley of homing arcane missiles.
- Arduos Delay of Motion (Active): Slows enemies.
- Blast (Passive): Creates a small area-of-effect explosion on impact.
