Companions

[Siouxie Sioux]

What do you think about them? It seems to me that they are more bothering than really helpful because they die very quickly. They are also too quick and go in front of me, like Ernesto, and then the enemies see him, or too slow, like the templar from the sewers - I would be dead if I waited for his help. I left War Golem in front of the church of Montaillou to help me with the English - I finished the quests of Nostradamus and Titans on my own. It seems to me that he's not so easy to kill, but creatures in the caverns would eat him for breakfast.
Is there any way to benefit from them, really? Sbd tell me, if there is a way...

The Golem is the best you'll get. You guessed it: they are terrible.

Hmmm as you said they aren't balanced very well... Most of the time il just use em for a bit, half the time i wont even care if they are stupid enough to get themselves killed lol.

there is only one good allie in the game she is joan d'arc you find her in the crypt near montilou after brother michel ( demonkin templar ) indicates its location to you. but joan is a temporary allie after you complete the guest of removing her curse she return to the world of the dead... BUT theres always a trick... you can "hire" her for the entire game if you do this instrucions:

a) before remove the curse ( by asking for it with the efrit ) you have to leave joan in a nearby place outside of the current map ( i left her in montiou, but i think it works if you leave her somewhere else like the blue waystone in the first map of the crypt area)

b) talk to the efrit and ask for the cure of the curse, joan will appear fron non where and talk with you, after that return to the place you left her and take her back, she will remain with you for the entire game ... but unfortunely still an undead.

i think this trick could work with other allies as well, like inquisitor diego and cortes.

i have also a question when we find the golem there are two of them there is any way to recruit both?

[Nekoru]

nah you cant do the same for diego and cortes but interesting observation on the joan of arc thingy.( im evil and i dont like companions so i killed her and all the templar knights in the crypt)

and no you cant recruit both golems (unless u have a high necromancy to raise it frm the dead YES ITS *DEAD*) lol
