Build and equip armor on your companion

[Syrin]

I already did this, and the quest doesn't recognize it. Please don't tell me I have to build another set just so it recognizes I already did this.

Many missions in this game will have to be done in proper order or else it will get you confused, or worse you get the mission broken -- Making Friends and Building Blocks are two missions that could easily break.

Read and follow pop-up hints and listen to dialogues to get more clues so you can do things in proper order, and often times the mission hints will only update after a dialogue is completed.

Did you fully complete the Making Friends mission? If you don't have the friends emote and you have not gotten your companion to do a trick, the mission is incomplete.

EDIT:
For the game to recognize you had crafted armor, wait for the pop-up that tells you to craft the armor. You can craft armor and equip you companion with it even before the pop-up but the the game will not recognize it.

I think I read where you have been playing this game a long time too, I don't remember all this missions broken. My first run through I think there were missions missing and the wedding party on the island you couldn't complete.

You mean you can destroy the Fnix command center at Sjoglimten even if you did no complete all the requirements of the Building Blocks mission? Similarly, that the game will acknowledge the crafting of armor even when the hint to craft the armor has not come out yet?

Part of the problem was it said to deploy the companion with ZERO explanation and no obvious means. Because of this, I thought the reason the option to deploy it wasn't showing up is because it lacked armor which I made and equipped and still couldn't deploy until after I did an internet search. Now, I have to recraft the armor which had high material requirements. Ironically, one of them being wood which is scarce despite being in a LITERAL FOREST

@Syrin You're not alone on this one. The "Therese Mission" (official or not), "Making Friends" and "Building Blocks" are three critical missions that have to be done by attentively looking at the pop-up hints and listening to the dialogs, although there could be other missions that also have this king of thing.

Well hate to bring back an old thread but here we are fully release and still this exact issue where you have to make the armor more than once. I have already made it twice as Syrin described so now I get to make it a third time. Wood still being hard to gather with trees everywhere. I have a .50 cal sniper, rocket launcher, robot dog, sadly no ax to gather wood......That and the AI is dumber than I remember though I am on the Normal default difficulty. They still come in houses through walls but then they stand there doing nothing until suddenly seeing you.
Game feels broken, not at all complete, bugs are hard to get rid of but having to make something many times, struggle to get wood surrounded by trees......

You gotta do it again. It's annoying. It's an old bug and it is still there. If you build the armor before it asks you to, you are forced to redo it.
