KahlessUK Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 Maybe I'm being dumb but when I'm checking out new gear for my companion the tooltips compare it to my gear. It's a real pain to visually compare stats everytime. When I have the 'companion' tab open, is there anyway to make the tooltips compare their gear to the new gear in the inventory?

oscoog Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 There's a check box in the.... ummm.... interface tab I think. You can turn it on so it shows both your and your companion's appropriate gear tooltip when you roll over an item. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CptnObvious Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 He is right but it only works for the active companion not one that is on a mission or sitting on your ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BarkForSoul Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 There's a check box in the.... ummm.... interface tab I think. You can turn it on so it shows both your and your companion's appropriate gear tooltip when you roll over an item. This is what I was wondering, I upgraded some pieces for my Droid and was in the auction house thingie and kept having to back out, look it over, go back in and search, I need to remember this when I get home.

BarkForSoul Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 Does anyone know the exact location in the menu for this? I couldn't find it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lickthesofa Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 I was recently wishing for something like this too. I hate having to try and open the character tab for my companion and then go back and forth, back and forth, comparing stats. I can't wait to look for this when I get home. Thanks!

KahlessUK Posted December 23, 2011 Author Share Posted December 23, 2011 It's right at the bottom of the tab, Interface as pointed out above I think, I'm not at home right now to check, sorry... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tglass Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 It's in the User Interface section under Tooltip. It;s called Enable Companion Comparitive Tooltips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kishae Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 I have found this doesn't work ALL the time, but it does most of the time. Maybe it doesn't show if your companion can't use it or something, but I haven't seen any ryhme or reason for it not to show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
