    I’m surprised they still haven’t actually updated the companion system as a whole. They’ve continued to add companions to it, but no expansion of their capabilities, any change ups, etc. Pretty crazy

      Unfortunately the companion system isn't much of a system. They could have done a recruitment system, like a hireling, a office in every major city. For example...go to Murkmire to hire an Argonian. They could have incorporated storyline NPCs into the companion system...example have Naryu as a companion instead of Miri.

Now that I've gotten Zerith's upgrade, I've gone back to using Bastian. I'm waiting for someone to do a definitive ranking of the best tank companion now that the two new ones are added. I'm a soloer and need someone watching my back.

      There is zero requirement or need to buy anything in the Crown Store. It's not a "cash grab" if everything is an optional, quality of life, item. If you want the new Companion, skip one drive through, fast food lunch, pay for one month of ESO plus, get the Companions and then cancel. But it's not a cash grab, so quit whining.
