Xenoblade Chronicles 3 has a massive world of Aionios to explore. It’s filled with dangerous creatures, so everyone who can help you is welcome. That is especially true if they can hold a weapon or at least heal a lot. As it happens, some of the best heroes of the land will join you in adventure. But first, you must find them by visiting colonies and solving quests.

They will fight alongside you and even cook while you rest (Manana is a great chef)! But that doesn’t mean you can control them. You also can’t change their gear, so what you see is what you get. What you can do is acquire their classes for the main characters. Also, you can upgrade them up to rank 20, so they become even stronger.
