Introduction
Welcome to DottzGaming.com’s Zerith-Var Companion Build for the Elder Scrolls Online! Companions in ESO are NPC followers that can help you in a wide variety of ways! One of the cool things about them is that you are able to outfit them with their own gear and skill loadouts, and they can fill any role in the game! To help you get started with your companion, this build guide covers a wide variety of setups for Zerith-Var, showing you how to outfit them as a magicka damage dealer, stamina damage dealer, tank or healer! If you’re looking for a guide that explains the basics of the companion system, you can find that here.
One thing to note is that companion gear does not have set bonuses and is its own unique gear specifically for companions. In addition, companion gear has the same armor value regardless of armor slot, and instead is just determined by the items weight (light vs. medium vs. heavy).
