Cubic Companions

Quickstart

1. Craft a Companion Capsule:

1. Weaken an untamed animal to below 25% health, then use the empty capsule on it. The animal is captured into the capsule.
2. Right-click the air to release your companion in front of you. Right-click the air again while it is nearby to recall it into the same capsule.
3. Hold the capsule and use it on a hostile mob to make your companion attack and earn experience.

Overview

Cubic Companions lets you capture an animal in a crafted capsule, summon and recall it, and use the capsule to battle hostile creatures. Your companion’s name, level, and experience stay with its capsule.

What It Adds

• Companion Capsule: A reusable item for capturing an animal, releasing or recalling your companion, and directing attacks against hostile mobs.

How To Use

• Capture: Use an empty capsule on an untamed animal at low health. Tamed animals cannot be captured. The animal disappears when captured.
• Release: Right-click the air with a filled capsule. Your companion appears in front of you; tameable companions become yours.
• Recall: Right-click the air again while your companion is nearby. It returns to the capsule.
• Battle: Use the filled capsule on a hostile mob. The capsule must be off cooldown before it can direct another attack.
• Check the instructions: Run /companions in chat for a brief gameplay reminder.

Abilities And Mechanics

A captured companion starts at level 1. Each successful capsule-directed hit on a hostile mob grants 1 experience. The experience required to level up is 5 + 3 × your current level; on leveling up, excess experience does not carry over.

Attack damage increases with level: 2 + 0.6 × level, up to level 20 for damage scaling. Each successful attack puts the capsule on a 16-tick cooldown.

Progression And Strategy

Weaken animals carefully so you can capture them before they die. Battle hostiles with the capsule to build levels, and recall your companion when you want it back in the capsule.
