Is the Ghost Companion worth it. I'd like to hear feedback from people who bought it. What does she do exactly, is the ghost effective, and how often do you use it, and which class do you think benefit the most from it, is she dps or heals or what

    I've never used her. I couldn't tell you if she's good or not, but I do know she is a DPS companion who can posses weak mobs.

    How cruel. The mobs she posesses end up dead afterwards... O_O

    If only she could posess bosses... hmm...

    I wouldnt advice to buy her. Mine ghost passed lvl 20 and... still its far from being useful. Possesion - it does look cool, but she can take over only weakest mobs like archers, regular soldiers etc. Any miniboss or boss - forget. She do have also very annoying habbit of taking over minion what is almost dead anyway, or worse - she take him exactly in moment when youre throwing your final shot or hit, in effect youre having.. dead corpse at floor with your ghost inside. So if you ask if possesion is useful... try to think if archer or other most cheap minion is useful as party member :)
    Also she dont tank and dont hold any aggro at all, her "necromatic strice" is in best case average. Its totally normal situation that mobs totaly ignore her necrotic attacks and go directly to get you and only you. So generally speaking im quite disspointed, because with that companion actually i do feel like without companion at all, theres really not any use. And thats why exactly today, after leveling her up to 20 (20 something) i decided thats end of her career. Dungeons are getting harder and my cleric does need companion who do something more useful than just looking cool.
    So my opinion - save your money, make other choice.

    I'd have to agree with the above post.
    The ghost seemed like a good idea initially but is more annoying than useful.
    And when she does possess something and it dies after, it doesn't count as a kill and you don't get any loot.
