'''Companion''' was first seen at the [[July 2011 Press Event]], where it was a level 16 skill. Unfortunately, no information about the skill's function was available. In  ===Beta===When the [[beta]] started in September 2011, Companion was changed to level 15. The skill system was once again overhauled for the [[Beta Patch 13]], and Companion was classified as a Shadow skill and moved up to level 25. For [[Beta Patch 14]], it was re-classified as a Hunting skill and dropped to level 17. Also, the "Hunting" category replaced "Shadow". ===In Other Games===Companion is an updated (and hopefully more useful) version of [[Diablo II]]'s {{iw|Druid Druid}} skill {{iw|Raven Raven}}.
