The Outer Worlds Felix Companions Guide

The Outer Worlds is the latest RPG from renowned developer, Obsidian Entertainment. Like most RPGs, the game features companions that you can take with you.

Before we dive into where and how to find companions, you need to know a few things. You can only have two active companions with you so chose carefully. You can swap companions if you don’t feel that a particular companion in the Outer Worlds doesn’t suit your play style.

Not only that, each companion in the game has perk bonuses and abilities. Companion perks grant bonuses to players and with each level, your companion unlocks a new perk. Each companion features a perk that grants party bonuses. This allows players to chose companions that best suit their play style.

The Outer Worlds Companions also have abelites which only unlock if your Determination skill is over 20. As you level up Leadership skills for your character the more companion abilities unlock.

Travel to Harlow’s Base in Scylla and have Felix in your party when heading out. Upon arrival, you’ll meet Voelker, who asks where you’re going. Say you’re with Felix and you’ll be allowed through. Go inside and through the corridor to your right and you’ll find Harlow and his canid, Marlow. Ask Harlow why you’re here, and he will say that he is working on something big, and he wants Felix to be a part of it. Harlow wants to know where Felix’s loyalties lie by finding and killing a traitor, Trask. He tells you to find Rosana, Trask wife, in the Groundbreaker. You’ll get 10,000xp and Harlow’s Emblem. If you talk to Felix after this, he will agree that something feels off and it feels like Harlow intends to take advantage of him.
