Companions

The store page lists Rangers, Medics and Porters as companion roles. Rangers fight up front. Medics use medicine from the shared backpack and can bandage. Porters haul loot. Gear can be changed, and affinity lets you take a companion's own kit. I do not have a public price list for hiring them, so there is no cost column.

On 7 Oct 2026 the companion post added a downed state. A downed person can be revived, and companions can revive you. The public note gives a 30 second bleed timer on that revive window. The same patch is the one that raised the pet cap; the two systems ship together and are still different rules.

The September camp post added a camp doctor and a Wait Here order. Seeing those people on the PDA is expected. Whether they take items from your boxes is not stated. That blank is also on the FAQ, on purpose.

Healing a mate, which is the question people search, is the downed-and-revive flow plus the medic role. There is no separate item named in the posts beyond the medicine the medic already uses.
