Rangers are supposed to be able to have animal companions. How is this done.

Hmm.. I think there is a Druid Kit that lets you have an animal companion, and I think the Beast Master lets you have some also, but besides that, I don't think there are any other kits that let you have them.

I believe there is also the golen lion figurine or the moon dog figurine.

If a figurine counts there is a spider one, the spider's name is Kitraxx. You get different types of spiders depending on the level of the person using the figurine. http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...es/biggrin.gif Otherwise you'll just have to settle for Boo. If you're set on a "companion" play as a mage, then you can have a familiar, and a few of those are animals. ex rabbit

THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE!!!!!!!!!!!

I don't think a figurine would count as an animal companion, since they are bits of stone most of the time, and animals for about six minutes a day (the book of infinite spells lets a ranger summon a wyvern BTW).
The only way to get animal companions would be by playing a beast master or by CTRL-Qing an animal and keeping it in your party.

contol q is COOL

charming all the animals you find is more fun http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif Nothing like chaming rabbits, casting strength of one or other spells, then setting the rabbits on your enemies.

but yeah, a beastmaster can cast find familiar, thus having an animal companion.

dulouz..

Thanks.
Are the familiars the same as the ones for a mage. If not than can somebody give me a list of them.

Well, I'm not sure... I could possibly test it out though. I would think that instead of the mage familiars you'd get a variety of animals. EX rabbits, cats, wolves, bears, etc. But you may be right. You want me to check it out? I can make my way out of the first dungeon as a beast master and then just give myself a find familiar scroll with the shadow keeper. Of course you could do this yourself... Heh heh. I'm curious though, maybe I'll check it out this weekend.
