Dani Garcia's skills in chemistry, robotics, and energy weapon systems are underwhelming. With minimal storyline and dialogue, she lacks depth and utility, placing her in the lowest tier, D.

Sophia Grace (D-Tier)

Sophia Grace has skills in stealth and lasers, but as stealth is less effective with companions, her utility is limited. Despite an interesting look and dialogue, she's overshadowed by other stealth-oriented companions. Lacking significant advantages, she's placed in the lowest tier, D, as there are better options available.

Mickey Caviar (C-Tier)

Mickey Caviar, a unique Bethesda-style companion, has limited utility with skills like gastronomy and wellness. His quirky personality and backstory as a former journalist add flavor, but his lack of practical skills places him in tier C.

Omari Hassan (C-Tier)

Omari Hassan brings skills in shield systems and starship engineering. However, his bland personality and limited use beyond crew duties make him a less desirable choice. He's placed in the kinda bad tier, C, due to his lack of versatility and engaging storyline.

Adoring Fan (B-Tier)

Described as a meme-like character, the Adoring Fan is obtained through the Heel Worship portrait. While humorous and unique, he's not particularly useful in gameplay, serving mainly as a pack mule. His skills in weightlifting, concealment, and scavenging are not highly beneficial, making him an average choice.

Andreja (B-Tier)

Andreja is a companion with high stealth and good skills in particle beams and energy systems. However, the game's mechanics make stealth less effective when accompanied by a companion. Despite her interesting personality and storyline, her late availability in the game and limited utility in stealth missions place her in the average tier.
