Servant Companions

[Masamune-Sama]

Idk if this is a thing yet i haven't played in a long time but i really want the capability of at least having one or two of your servants with you out in the field. Being able to set there behaviors, battle tactics, tendencies things of that nature. It'd be fun smackin up bosses with AI companions if your not into multiplayer.

Why? Every boss is solo-able..

I just launched a PVE server myself and I welcome everyone there! happy to help and team up to make pretty castles and get the stoopid hoomans . You can join my server by this IP 209.192.194.170

@scumdrop thats not my point its not about the bosses im jus saying it would be fun to have your servants come out into the field with you as companions. if your someone who doesnt wanna play wit other ppl you can have your servants join you like skyrim or fallout you know

Thank you for asking.
I also played this game some time ago, and not having servants as companions was the letdown that made me drop the game... I came here to see if they changed this.

I'd like that to be possible, just for thematic reasons. In a non PvP server, servants are nothing but glorified farmers or decorations. I want to see my enemy's weapons turned against them.

That could be tied in with more active enemy patrols/events

Why not? Maybe he likes the idea of role playing with his coterie? No one would force you to use them in your battles. I don't get why people poo poo on ideas that only add something cool without doing anything bad to the game.

Respectfully, I suspect that it is the strong sentiment of much of the competitive community that the game remain as starkly balanced as possible.

Do I agree? Not always (as is my stance on the garlic debuff's post-death lingering effect), but it's ok to disagree. If the greater part of the audience prefers the game to be more strict, then it is likely in the best interests of the developers to follow suit.

I wish there was some sort of resource system where my companions could be sent out to harvest plants, mine minerals etc. Maybe even be sent to trade stuff I dont need to caravans or towns.)

That pretty much is the current Servant hunt/mission system.

Just finished the game yesterday, since i dont have any friends that are interested in these types of games i did it solo, one thing i was super excited about was the ability to have servants and kitting them out, only to find out they are just chihuahuas that only guard your house from wolves. Yeah no the game needs the ability to let you have at least one servant accompany you, and if this change hurts the pvp fanatics, just have it be a server setting and thats it. I doubt most pvp servers would have that enabled anyway.
