《The Elder Scrolls Online: Blackwood》同伴系統搶先看

You’ll never adventure alone again with the new Companion System, which will be available when The Elder Scrolls Online: Blackwood launches on PC/Mac and Stadia (in select territories) on June 1, and on Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 on June 8.

Adventuring Allies

Part of the upcoming Blackwood Chapter, the Companion System allows you to recruit a new ally to fight and quest at your side during your adventures in Tamriel.

Once you’ve unlocked your new Companion, you will be able to equip them with gear, define their abilities, and even direct them in combat. They’ll also have their own personalities, backstories, and quests, and they’ll even react differently based on the way you act in your adventures.

“The goal of the Companion system is to provide you with unique adventuring allies to explore the world with who will grow under your care and provide customizable combat support,” explains Philip Draven, ESO’s Lead Systems Designer. “By developing your Companion to be the perfect complement to your own playstyle, they’ll be able to help you tackle challenges that may have been just out of reach before and provide assistance when another player is not available to join you.”

At launch, you will be able to unlock two unique Companions, Mirri Elendis and Bastian Hallix, by completing certain quests in the Blackwood Chapter. After that, how you choose to use your Companions is entirely up to you.

Customizable Companions

In The Elder Scrolls Online you can completely customize the way your character looks and fights based on your own personal preferences. The team wanted to ensure this core tenant was also in place for the new Companion system as well.

As a result, you have a lot of ways to customize your Companion, including the gear that they wear (with specific Companion-based traits) and abilities they wield in combat. You can also customize their appearance, with your Companions being able to equip many of your unlocked costumes and outfit collectibles from your Collections UI. You can even choose which mount they ride!

Building a Relationship

A major part of this new system is the rapport function, where your actions – good or bad – can have consequences for your relationship with whichever Companion you currently have active.

As you adventure together, the level of rapport between you and your Companion will go up and down, depending on what kind of activities you engage in. These changes in rapport will have a real effect on the characters, too. As you build your relationships with your new allies, you’ll unlock new dialog options, Companion-specific quests, and the ability to add your Companions to your homes as houseguests!
