BronxBrewer Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 Interested to know what companion you guys used to quest and lvl with when questing ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DedRebel Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 I am using Elara Dorne considering I am DPS spec. She does a really good job keeping me healed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oaceen Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 using a healing companion helps a lot with the down time between trash pulls, so that's mostly what i level with, regardless of class, if i'm solo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corran Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 best bet is m1-4x when yo get him. he will tank while yo uburn things down. dismiss and resummon him after. fights are faster, less recovery between and you'll be able to solo things with a little bit of healing you can't just using elara. he's also the only companion tank left with a harpoon/pull ability, and he goes great with a cybertech trooper.

Thank you for this ! Once i got 4x i felt he was better for me and questing got more easy. Everyone mentions using Elara but i feel it takes to long to take down the packs. The reason i made the post was because everyone tells me to run her and i started second guessing myself. Im also Cybertech. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThatGnome Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 Once I've got all the companions I often use Tanno. He gets in close and grabs aggro, I kill things from distance and throw an occasional heal on him. If I was more of a healer I might try with Yuun, melee DPS plus healer works very well on my Scoundrel (with Akaavi). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
