⚡ Vault Hunters Companions ⚡
Current Season: 2 Watch live:twitch.tv/iskall85
What are Companions?
Companions are mini-versions of YOU that can assist a streamer inside the vault by adding passive and active modifiers. You can control your companion by using the Twitch extension (PC or mobile).
- Companions render with the user’s given Java Minecraft skin (does not need to be their own).
- The party leader companion scales with its level — higher level = bigger model.
- Other party members render as small “antlions”, but still show their skin & gear.
How to Get a Companion
- Open the channel point menu.
- Redeem Create Companion → creates a level 1 companion with your Twitch username.
- A companion is also created when redeeming any of the “booster packs”.
