Embark on a perilous journey through Eora's Living Lands with the aid of four unique Companions in Avowed. Each Companion boasts a distinct personality and customizable abilities. Let's explore each one:
Kai: Encountered early, near Paradis' Dawnshore port, Kai, a former mercenary with a hidden soft side, joins your party to help locate the Ambassador and Cleric. In combat, he's a formidable tank, dealing and absorbing significant damage. His fire abilities prove invaluable for clearing obstacles and uncovering hidden paths.
Kai's Upgradable Abilities:
- Fire and Ire (Active): A powerful blunderbuss shot, stunning and taunting a single enemy.
- Unbending Defense (Active): Regenerates health and boosts damage reduction.
- Leap of Daring (Active): A powerful leap, stunning and taunting nearby enemies.
- Second Win (Passive): Revives with 50% health upon death.
Marius: Found in Dawnshore, Marius shares history with Kai. A skilled hunter and tracker, his abilities enhance both exploration and combat. His "Hunter Sense" reveals loot and materials, while his bow, daggers, and nature-based traps make him a versatile combatant.
Marius' Upgradable Abilities:
- Binding Roots (Active): Roots an enemy in place.
- Heart Seeker (Active): A piercing shot that ignores obstacles.
- Shadow Step (Active): Vanishes and reappears to attack an enemy (up to 3 times).
- Wounding Shots (Passive): Attacks inflict bleeding.
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. She provides support in combat through healing, shielding, and buffs, and her "Spectral Jolt" activates Essence Generators to reveal hidden areas.
Giatta's Upgradable Abilities:
- Purification (Active): Heals all allies.
- Barrier (Active): Provides temporary health to allies.
- Acceleration (Active): Increases ally movement and attack speed.
- Reconstruction (Passive): Attacks partially heal allies.
Yatzli: The final Companion, found in Thirdborn (Shatterscarp region), Yatzli is a damage-dealing mage. Her spells excel at both single-target and area-of-effect damage, and she can also clear path obstacles.
Yatzli's Upgradable Abilities:
- Essence Explosion (Active): Explosive arcane damage.
- Minoletta’s Missile Battery (Active): A volley of homing arcane missiles.
- Arduos Delay of Motion (Active): Slows an enemy.
