How to give better weapons and armor to companions, and do they need ammo in Starfield?<\/strong> One companion will follow you in your adventures in Starfield, and that person has to be well-equipped to deal with dangers. You can assign weapons, armor, and ammo to your companion to ensure they have the best equipment to protect themselves and you when required.<\/p>\n Here’s how you can give better weapons and armor to your companion:<\/p>\n Initially, I thought simply trading the item would do it, but no – you must remember to equip it, too.<\/p>\n As the player, you must do a lot of ammo management<\/strong><\/a> to ensure you don’t run out of ammo during or just before gunfights.<\/p>\n But do companions need ammo in Starfield?<\/strong> Yes, but you don’t have to keep restocking or refilling it for them. <\/strong>Please give\u00a0them the weapon you want them to use, then at least 1 round of the ammo.<\/strong> This will give them ‘unlimited’ ammo<\/strong><\/a>, and they will keep using the weapon you equipped for them and never run out during gunfights.<\/p>\n As noted by players on Reddit, if you don’t give them any ammo<\/strong>, they will either drop the gun, store it, or pick up another one if possible. But if you give them one round, they will keep using the good weapon you have equipped.<\/p>\n A good tip is to avoid handing over grenades to your companions<\/strong> because they might<\/em> use them at the wrong time or damage themselves. Since they are so scarce, managing and using grenades yourself is best.<\/p>\nHow to Equip Companions with Weapons, Armor, and Ammo?<\/h2>\n
