What Ranger animal companion did you choose?

[Cylion]

I was just wondering if anyone took something other than the Bear companion.

[Fluffle]

I haven't played the game yet. But I'm going to choose the same animal companion that I had in PoE1.

It's a wolf called "Faolán" which is an Irish name and means "little wolf" xD

Yeah I need a wolf. In fact I'm playing a ranger for that very reason. I'm a dog person. And I adore wolves.

I've not played a Ranger yet.

 

But i like Stags.

Majestic creatures.

 

Honestly, i'd prefer a bird though

depand on what I'm playing . When I made my Amauna , she went druid/ranger...so took a Lioness Spirit animal! and it was awesome! cose you can turn into one , plus you get the ghost animal companion . 

 

I also tried the Stag , and Antelope . 

 

I won't choose bear , wolf and boar...cose..boriing

Ravens are the coolest.

I like them all. But when I am a ranger/druid I choose the same as my animal companion. Team work makes the dream work!

Antelope, has nice animations

[Starwars]

Ghost Wolf.

[Zeitzbach]

Wolf because I based my ranger char around a Cat x Fox shipping and I treat my Orlan char with a depressed cat personality.

I chose wolf. I choose Lion initially and i need to restart the game. The way the lion sprint hurt my eyes. Speaking of companions, i'm really disappointed with Obsidian. I had asked for more customisations but Obsidian disregard it. I had asked that i can choose a white wolf or white lion, basically able to choose the color of my pet. Another thing is the variation. I like a black panther as pet instead of just a lion. I'd like a female lion instead of just male lion. Those are not difficult to implement at all! as there's already said animal in the game.

Hawk.

[Zagadka]

My choice was for RP reasons (I have a set of characters with defined traits reused in every game) more than characteristics ingame, but I was happy with the stag.

[Casper]

i felt the wolf's capabilities fit my character best. called him ifrit.

[marimo]

Wolf in the first game, ghost wolf in the second. 

[Masticator]

Wolf, mostly because I like wolves (though I wouldn't want to be up close and personal with a pack of wolves). I have wolf pictures on my walls in my living room, something majestic about them.

[ShakotanSolari]

Antelope because it is the cutest by far 

[tiamatbubbles]

if it weren't for my Bear pal, Bubbles, well, i dont know where id be, but it wouldnt be good 

[anathanielh]

I have a pet Eothas statue, but he ran away at the start of the game so I have to find him again

if they'd just give it wings, a mini-gun, and anti-tank missiles then it might be a different story.

I am surprised that so many people went with the dmg option (wolf). I understand that most people that did choose the wolf companion did it for RP or because they simply like wolfs. It is kinda hard keeping the bear alive, I really wonder how you guys keep the other pets alive. Finished the details page for each section, waiting for data.

i haven't really had any trouble keeping my wolf or maia's hawk alive. guess you just have to pay attention to their health, and perhaps maneuver them carefully. for instance i usually use my ranger to snipe wizards/chanters/ciphers and i use my pet to distract them, making it difficult for them to cast, so my ranger can off em more easily. usually it just takes careful positioning, and timing, and a bit of stealth too.

My wolf died a lot. But it's damage Eder wasn't taking, so that's fine. My wolf can't get injuries after all. Only problem was the debuff effect though, but usually by then the fight was "over the hump" and winning is inevitable.
