    THIS IS GAME-BREAKING-WEIRD! Like, Lady-Gaga-companion-weird.

    How many Sgt. Knoxes will there be in the freakin Enclave? Come'on don't let this be! It stinks of recycled garbage, turning Knox into a companion. You're gonna ruin the novelty of NPCs. Sgt. Knox is already a joke as he is. This will make things worse :O

    Have to agree with Rustlord on this one. Signature NPCs should not be companions. Period.

    Then I want a "Private Wilfred companion" and everytime he attacks a mob he should scream very loudly "Valindraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa".

    I assumed in the other thread about this last night that this screenshot was a joke because of how weird this is. This just seems very odd.

    Updated Sgt Knox companion skills:
    "Companion will stand in a couple of locations and dish out quests"
    On completion, quest rewards have a chance to be given out*

    *chance dependent on rng - but definitely not higher than 0.1%

    I logged into gate way test, but all I see is a retrain token and a race change token. Where do you see this Sargent Knox companion at?

    Sergeant as a companion eh... not bad. And he seems to have pretty strong survivability. I just worry about his damage tho... hopefully not gonna be those measly 300 dmg per strike, cause that would be funny...

    Not sure what to think about Knox being a companion. I think the idea of a humorous companion is good, but making a key NPC the companion just breaks the feel of the story in game. Perhaps making it a Neverwinter Commoner instead would work out. Imagine, a commoner swinging a weapon around and trying to do stuff. It would be pretty funny and not as strange as Knox. Still not optimal, but it at least keeps the funny feel.

    P.S. Speaking of this, I actually just made a foundry with a weird story that fits the implementation of a Knox companion. Prophecy...?

    whether this is real or an internal dev joke (that may or may not have been intended for prime time eyeballs), might i remind you that anything you see on the preview shard or test gateway is subject to change. :D

    It's in the main game now. Look at the companion collection list.
    Can be gotten thru "Special Promotions".

    I would hope they're kidding anyway. Otherwise I expect to see a mob of
    Knoxes (Knoxi?) doing funny things on YouTube.

    I would like the Quorthon pet, please. Pretty sure he's an unkillable Archmage.
