Companion tip: Ranged healing companions are far better than melee

Just trying to help some who might be struggling (not sure why, but staying out of that).

 

Range companions do a much better job as a healing companion than melee ones.

 

Melee companions will constantly move when you do so they aren't healing then, they are constantly in the same damage zones you are with AoEs being directed at you.

 

Ranged companions in what I've experienced especially SCORPIO, stay back, stay still most of the time. They only adjust when you get out of range or view. They aren't taking all the extra AoE damage that your opponents are directing at you (unless you are standing right next to them, which you shouldn't).

 

I know all the people that love Lana are going to be frustrated not being able to use her, but she's one of the worst for getting into problems out of the melee companions. But put Lana away and grab Koth or SCORPIO, T7, or the several others that are ranged.
