If you get treek right at lvl 10 when you first have acsses then treek is probs better equipped than you are.

Anyway, I did some rough checking and it's going to cost ....drumroll...... at least 360,000 credits to bring Treek up to scratch with blue 55 mods. Not a bank-breaking amount, but still a chunk of change. Oddly, almost the exact GTN price of a cartel pack on my server TOFN. But I digress.

So there you have it. Dang furry highwayman should have come with a 'this companion is for fresh characters' warning, I suppose.
All you need to do is save up some "Basic Commendations" (actually - if you run a lot of dailies you'll probably already have a stack).
So you can immediately gear Treek with purple 66 items in the main armour slots. Weapons are available at reputation vendors.
So all you should need to worry about is belt, bracers and offhand.

Oh! I was wondering, why in the world two sets of identical gear? This answer makes sense! Thanks!

they both have shields and the exact same modifications, so it isn't that.

Even if you replace one piece, that doesn't change the fact that you have an almost full set to mod one way and a full set to mod the other way. They start with the same mods, but the whole point of moddable is they don't stay that way.

Just buy treek some blues off the GTN for tanking or healing (whichever you prefer) and she'll be good to go right away. Her base stats are higher then the other companions so she can hold her own even in blues unless you have a companion that's in full raid gear to use.
Raid progression no one cares about. Unimpressive quote or one liner. Uninteresting guild name. List of characters with their level and class symbol. Server. Referral link.

Are you offering advice or asking a question? I can't really discern from your post what it is you're trying to communicate.

There are no character-specific ways to gear up. Treek is a tank/heals that uses AIM as her main stat. It's the same as any other tank or heals companion that uses aim.

Hats off to them! They try so hard to get this MMO thing, and fail so hard too. It's almost endearing.
It is NOT useless at endgame. That's like saying HK is useless for leveling but I manage to level all my alts with HK, hmm. It's called getting gear at level. It's not big deal in this game.

Nope. You can keep her in level 10 gear if you want.
