Pet Companions 1.2.0 – Big update

New

  • Now also for Minecraft 26.2 (separate download)
  • Companions level up with you: a summoned companion gets the same experience you pick up, and you keep yours. "Give EXP" is now an optional boost, and the level curve is much flatter
  • Resistances: companions learn to withstand rain, fire, drowning and freezing from the damage they take
  • The Talent Seer has his own window with talents and resistance progress
  • Villager companion: new trades every Minecraft day, with regional goods based on its look
  • New villager: the Expedition Leader calls companions back from expeditions at once for emeralds. His workplace is the Expedition Camp
  • New expedition area: Desert & Badlands. New pictures and sharper map art for all areas
  • Sleeping through the night lets defeated companions recover at once
  • New companion symbol in the top right (mode, cooldown, recovery), movable in the settings
  • Bigger advancement tree with seven branches
  • Locked companions show a faded hint of their head in the menu
  • Command is now /companions

Companions

  • Stronger elder guardian (beam attack, +50 % damage underwater), axolotl, polar bear, chicken and turtle
  • New twists instead of plain vanilla effects: dolphin leap, golem guard, piglin respect, frost paw, panda stun, ender escort
  • Blaze: fire damage reduction and lava rescue instead of permanent Fire Resistance

Balance

  • Seals 1–2 cost no XP levels, and seal XP is now paid from the bottom (much cheaper at high levels)
  • Seal tributes scale with rarity, and many tasks need less luck and grind
  • Unlocks fit the rarity better
  • Training gives +2 % per point, and talent crystals are more reliable
  • Expeditions: long trips are worth it, rare loot is better spread out
  • Combat values adjusted by rarity, and recovery takes at most 10 min
  • Water companions work at half strength on land

Fixes

  • Closed many AFK and farming loopholes: self-placed blocks, self-dropped items, potions you didn't brew, AFK training
  • Only the owner can trade with a villager companion
  • Fireballs now hurt fire-immune mobs
  • Abilities no longer anger neutral mobs
  • Every defeated companion has its own recovery time
  • The Talent Seer loses his profession right away when his altar is broken
  • Players with a different mod version get a clear message instead of a connection error
