May 5, 201510 yr Aren't the ranger and his/her animal companion supposed to be sharing the same health/endurance pool? Not anymore (since a long time ago) .. Locked health is the mechanic that guarantees your Animal Companion's immortality .. You can sort of "abuse" it early game by tanking with the AC since they be restored to full endurance/health at the end of the combat (whereas your party members would lose health that needs resting to recover) .. Later on - stalker's link on top of the penalty for downed AC (bonded grief) gives more incentive to try to keep the AC alive .. Edited May 5, 201510 yr by peddroelm
