3. gaspard de vole he is also super annoying and i just dont like him
thats all i have please post your ideas

Here we go, another "Let's get rid of some companions" post. Don't you see, that these 'super annoying' companions aren't a waste of space at all?

1. Set the companions you simply can't stand to tasks that help you: Sailin', Plunderin', Wranglin', or Scavengin'. For Nautical XP, gold, pet gear/snacks, or gear ( you might even get a 'gold mine' , a pet, or gear with a card! )
2. Let them level themselves by assigning them to Brawlin' to earn their own XP.

P.S. Gaspard de Vole is an important main line companion, leveling and promoting him is very important.

What companions would I like to get rid of? hmmm....If I had to choose, it would be...

1. the crab witchdoctor swashbucklers get, cuz since we already have old scratch (who is way better cuz he gots promotions and stuffs) and for me right now, he isn't that strong....

2. the crazy monquister you get from defeating gortez, cuz swashbucklers already have bonnie anne, and da crazy monquistor doesn't have any epics to use.

3. I would agree with you jesusfollower about nurse quin and da weasel gambler..for the same reasons

I never got Gaspard de vole, so I have no opinion on that, but is did get milo graytail, and he's really helping right now

Why would you like to get rid of your faithful followers? If you don't like them send them pet wrangling' or whatnot. Never ever would I choose to cut their contract they are lifetime employees haha!

A good captain is loyal to all her (or his) faithful crew, and would never cast any of them off. But depending on the battle, a wise captain knows that some are less suited to this active service.

So, as others have said wisely, set them to 'companion tasks' - pet wrangling, looking around for loot or gold, building shipfaring experience, that sort of thing. And if you don't want to see them on your roster, why you can have them be in your house, instead. But none of mine are (even though it is pretty neat to see them running around), because I like them all.

Poor Nurse Quinn. Her animations are charming and amusing. I can see her as quite a character (which means, I suppose, I should stop dragging my feet and actually submit the fan fiction I wrote where she gets a major role...) Yes, she usually goes on the hunt for pet snacks for me, but I have her fully leveled in hopes that she will get the promotion she deserves. I think my crazy monquistador is cute (even if he isn't in the battles he longs for these days), though my favorite Monquistan is my privateer's monquisitor (who is feisty and funny). I really like my Monquistan knight too. I also hope for promotions for them (and yep, they too all all fully leveled, ready and waiting)

But Gaspard de Vole, he is really good! His courteous ways are also delightful. Perhaps you should level him up and see what he is capable of.

What kind of question be that? I will never get rid of any of them, they be me friends they be me family and as they will fight fer me till the bitter end so I will do the same with them and their quests, that be me pirate code of honor.

In my honest opinion no companion deserves to be rid of. Every companion is option-able to use and if you don't like a companion simply don't use them, to me companions like Nurse Quinn, Weasel Gambler and Gaspard De Vole can be somehow easily seen as 'weak' at certain points in the game but that doesn't deny the fact that they are available when they are needed most, I honestly don't see how getting rid of companions benefits anyone except for people who must have a very strong disliking towards a certain or certain companions. The companions that seem useless, weak and annoying to many pirates have been helpful for me in Aquila, despite not having promotions or the best stats they've still helped me progress and win many battles, I always say if I lose a battle it's not because of my companions but it was because of how I used my role as Captain.
