More player companions!

Have you been doing the weekly challenge log with him? It's a big chunk of exp. I've been doing mine by farming Deepeye tears with him out.

I haven't been since 3.1 because there is so much to do, but before then, yes. Sometimes it was the only EXP he was getting each week because of queues.

I'd love to have retainers as companions! It was kind of a silly novelty feature, but I really enjoyed my NPC adventuring companion back in XI. I'd love to see something like that here in XIV.

I'd love for you to be able to have retainers as companions, but in addition I'd like to either be able to unlock job crystals for them, or at least give them some of the post 50 abilities. I'm not really sure how they'd justify that lore wise as some of the jobs are pretty exclusive. Maybe you could take them on as your "apprentice"? I'd also like it they expanded the companion controls, if a full gambit system is not possible then at least give them something like the pet commands already in game.
