Woohoo! I actually like the Fellows in this game, they can be pretty useful when you are on your own. Good to know they are raising the cap for them.

Very useful for anyone who has leveled their fellow up. I wonder, though, how much use they'll actually be put to. I got a lot of mileage out of my partner back when old-world content was still relevant, but with everything so Abyssea-centric now...

I used the crap out of my fellow, i had the healer type, but with a kick ass samurai sword, I didn't use the higher tier healer though, for some reason it wasn't as good and spammed useless spells. Maybe the AI is better now, but I enjoy always getting haste/protect and a couple of heals tossed my way whilst farming gold coins and scrolls in SSG. Nice to see they updated that, I would certainly take full advantage of it.
