Avowed Best Companions

Giatta is The Best Companion

Companion Overview
GiattaGiatta • Comes with two healing abilities that can actively and passively heal allies.
• Also packs a shielding ability that can negate damage if used properly and can be upgraded to heal.
• Has an attack speed and movement speed buffer ability.

Giatta excels as the best companion in the game due to having three of the most powerful supportive abilities out of any companion's arsenal, making her a must-have especially in high difficulty.

Purification can be upgraded to increase her healing and even provide crowd control, and Barrier can be upgraded to become both a shielding and healing ability.

Avowed Best Team Comps

Best Warrior Party

Warrior Party Companions
MariusMarius GiattaGiatta

When playing a warrior, you would want to have some form of Crowd Control to keep enemies locked down so you can unleash your combos on them, and a healer to keep you topped off on HP as you will be tanking damage.

Marius keeps enemies locked down with Binding Roots and Giatta provides the team with emergency healing using her Purification, as well as passive healing with Reconstruction, ensuring that the Envoy can stay in the enemy's face and maintain their combo.

You Can Trade Marius For Yatzli In Late Game

YatzliYatzli

By Late Game, you will likely be able to acquire the bleed passive that the warrior tree has access to, as well as using a strong two-handed weapon that deals a large amount of stun.

When you reach this point, Marius' bleed and root become inefficient as you can outpace and outdamage him, allowing you to swap out Marius for Yatzli for the extra damage she brings, closing out fights faster.

Best Mage Party

Mage Party Companions
KaiKai GiattaGiatta

In most scenarios, Mages will be at range away from direct hits and heavy damage from enemies, letting them focus in on their spells and arsenal.

Kai is mainly used for his taunts, particularly Fire and Ire to keep aggressive enemies away from you, and Giatta is here to keep the team topped up on HP, shields, and buff your attack speed.

You Can Swap Giatta For Yatzli in Lower Difficulty

YatzliYatzli

While this comes at the cost of survivability, you can swap out Giatta for Yatzli for more damage as lower difficulties are easier for the player to maneuver.

Best Ranger Party

Ranger Party Companions
KaiKai MariusMarius

As a Ranger, you will be at a distance away from most fights at first, keeping enemies away while you whittle them down and prepare to switch to melee to close in for the kill.

Kai's main strat here is to use Leap of Daring to charge into the fight and gather up enemies. This is comboed with Marius' Binding Roots to keep them crowd controlled after the taunt expires.

You Can Swap Marius For Giatta

Consider swapping out Marius for Giatta for the comfortable survivability and sustain she brings, especially at high difficulty.

Even with access to Parries and Ranged attacks, Giatta still provides a significant safety net that can allow you to soak up damage, letting you swap into melee early to join Kai in the fight.
