Hello everyone!
As many of you, I find it excruciating choosing the class for my companion. I love to reroll my characters and try out new things, but the class choice is locked in (if there is a way to change it, please let me know).
I'm currently in Neketaka and planning on picking up Maia, Tekehu and Pallegina. I've already tested a bit and looked at their skill trees. Here is my idea for my party (I'm playing on Veteran with level scaling all):
MC: Nature Godlike Bleak Walker/Berserker. Dual-wielding melee DPS.
Eder: Fighter/Rogue main tank. Sword+shield, dual pistols to start combat (full attack from rogue abilities).
Pallegina: Paladin/Chanter support. Can off-tank. Aura for accuracy, sure-handed Ila for gunners. Main weapon: 2H gun (Arquebus?), Greatsword for melee
Serafen: Cipher DPS/CC. Arquebus and pistols. Accurate shot on Arquebus for that first, focus-boosting shot.
Maia: Ranger DPS (some CC). Arquebus. Bird gives some damage and CC.
Some questions I have:
- Do you think it would be better to have Maia as a Ranger/Rogue? I would be missing the attack bonus, some good full attack abilities (Crippling Strike, Blinding Strike). The advantages of Ranger is faster higher level abilities and the level 8 and 9 abilities - but I assume my party will be pretty good anyway when I get that high leveled.
- Do you think I have enough healing with the MC's paladin abilities, Eder's self heal and Pallegina's healing (from both Chanter and Paladin)?
- Do you think I need one of the three casters (Xoti as monk, Aloth as wizard or Tekehu as druid/changer (not set yet))? If so, for what?
