What are Companions?

Companions are mini-versions of Yourself that can assist a streamer inside the vault by adding passive and active modifiers (see Modifiers & Spells). You can control your companion by using the Twitch extension (PC or mobile).

Companions render with the given Minecraft Java account name (does not need to be your own).
The party leader companion's size scales with its level: higher level = bigger model (see Level Milestones).
Other party members render as small “antlions”, but still show their skin, gear and other cosmetics.

Leveling Up

Companions gain XP through:

Booster redemptions (Companion, Mega, Omega): These can be bought with channel points. Each booster grants 1 XP per channel point spent. Currently available boosters are: 5,000, 50,000, and 250,000 channel points.

Joining vaults (“I’m here”): When the streamer enters a vault, a popup appears. Click I’m here to register, XP is granted on successful vault completion. You can also type !join in the chat. Join XP scales with the current Hype Train multiplier and the party leader’s Eternal Level (plus other modifiers).

“I’m here” join popup

Hype Train multipliers: This multiplier modifies other XP sources (e.g., Join, Raffle). Higher hype trains = more XP from those actions.

Jackpot rewards: Random jackpots at the end of each Vault Run can award: Gold 100,000 XP, Silver 75,000 XP, Bronze 50,000 XP.

Vault challenges (Support/Doubt):: Challenges are hidden from the streamer. View them in the extension or use !support / !doubt in chat. They Reward: a per-companion random amount between 2,500 and 5,000 XP. They are NOT affected by the Hype Train multiplier.

Raffle (end of stream): If your companion is awake when the stream ends, you will get Hype Train multiplier × 1,000 XP. One Person can win the Raffle and earn 100k XP instead. (plus some Loot depending on the passive modifiers of the companion for the streamer)

(Re-)Subscribing: A (re-)subscription gives XP based on the Tier: Tier 1 → 5,000 XP, Tier 2 → 10,000 XP, Tier 3 → 25,000 XP for each (re-)subscription.

Gifted subs: The gifter earns XP equal to the resub value of the gifted subs tiers (receiver does not gain XP).

Bits: 10 XP per bit (e.g., 100 bits = 1,000 XP).

Monetary donations: Converted to USD at time of gift: $1 = 1,000 XP.

Level Milestones

Level 2–9: Gain selectable modifier (with a small chance that a spell instead is offered), plus a challenge stack each level.
Level 10: The companion becomes a party leader and gets a guaranteed legendary.
Level 11+: Each new level adds +1 party slot, and +1 selectable modifier (each pick again has a small chance to be a spell instead of a passive).
