This mod overhauls the Friend List companion loadouts to ensure they remain viable and responsive in endgame environments. By refining survivability, and skill usage, companions become reliable assets for Extreme Difficulty missions and Endgame Co‑op content.
Survivability and Class Adjustments
Endgame HP Scaling
Tank‑class companions receive 4× base HP and increased aggro generation to maintain frontline stability.
All other classes receive 2× base HP to prevent instant‑death scenarios against DLC‑tier bosses and Hardcore Co‑op missions.
Medic Distribution
AED Shot availability has been expanded across the roster, enabling more characters to perform long‑range revives
AI Efficiency and Skill Logic Improvements
Loadout Optimization
Most skills have been adjusted from Level 4 → Level 3 to reduce downtime and improve A.I. cycling frequency for skills.
Loadout Cleanup
Ineffective or low‑impact skills such as Metamaterial Camouflage and Eagle‑Eye Beacon have been removed.
Anti‑Conflict Logic
Redundant or contradictory skill pairings (e.g., Conceal combined with Attention Seeker) have been removed to maximize active skill slots.
