The game calls them Followers. A Follower is a non-combat companion that trots along behind your character, and it goes into a dedicated Follower slot on your character sheet rather than sitting in your bag. Most players say "pet", and the studio uses that word too when it labels a cosmetic set, but Follower is the name on the slot and the name this page uses.
They do nothing in a fight. What a Follower actually is, is proof of work: almost every one is paid out for an achievement, a live event, a stack of handed-in tasks, or a very unlucky roll while gathering.
Equipping a Follower
Press B to open your Bag and C to open the character window.
Drag the Follower item into the Follower slot.
Unequip the item to dismiss it.
You get one at a time. The Follower slot sits alongside the head, chest, arms, feet and back cosmetic override slots, so it is part of the same appearance layer covered on Gear and Cosmetics rather than part of your stat gear. Followers carry no stats and change nothing about your build.
Where Followers Come From
Achievement rewards.
Community events run around the game.
Live event rewards, paid into your mailbox with the rest of the event payout.
The Monthly Vendor at the Pioneers Guild.
Pioneer task rewards, which arrive inside Guild Cache chests.
Stamina gathering: foraging, hacking, mining and fishing each have one.
The Gathering Twibbi
Four Followers, one per stamina gathering skill, are called Twibbi. Each is summoned by a sigil that drops as a rare secondary roll from that skill's own nodes: the Bouldering Sigil from mining outcrops, the Tinkering Sigil from lockboxes, and the equivalents for foraging and fishing. The chance is very small, and it climbs only slightly at higher node tiers, so a Twibbi is a long-odds by-product of grinding a gathering skill rather than something you can go and farm on purpose.
The practical implication is that the four Twibbi are the only Followers that reward pure life skill time. Everything else on the roster needs you to turn up for something scheduled. See Materials and Resources for the node tiers those sigils drop from.
The Follower Roster
Follower | Where It Comes From |
|---|---|
Wooden Rabbit | Tier 1 and tier 2 Guild Cache chests |
Metal Rabbit | Tier 2 and tier 3 Guild Cache chests |
Mint Rabbit | Tier 4 and tier 5 Guild Cache chests |
Fire Rabbit | Tier 6 Guild Cache chests from the Pioneer Task Manager |
Mining Twibbi | Rare sigil drop while mining |
Foraging Twibbi | Rare sigil drop while foraging |
Fishing Twibbi | Rare sigil drop while fishing |
Hacking Twibbi | Rare sigil drop from lockboxes |
Grand Hunter's Companion | A higher-tier achievement reward |
Jar of Polliwog | We're Gunna Need a Bigger Boat |
Jar of Tadpole | We're Gunna Need a Bigger Boat |
Master Mind Activation Code | The Abyssal Paradox event, in two colour variants |
Scholarly Eagle | The Librarian in Neo-Tilus |
Wiggling Cactus | The Monthly Vendor at the Pioneers Guild |
Pet Rock | Dropped by the Mecha Titan, in a raid that has not shipped |
The rabbit line is the clearest ladder on the list: four of them, each pinned to a band of Guild Cache tiers, so working through Pioneer tasks steadily walks you up the set. Pet Rock is the one entry you cannot chase yet. Its only recorded source is a drop from the Mecha Titan, and the studio's published plan puts that raid after Early Access, so treat it as listed rather than obtainable.
The Wiggling Cactus and the Commission Track
The Wiggling Cactus is the current live example of how a Follower reaches a player, and it is worth following end to end. The monthly commission set is the Cactus set: eight pieces for 100 Commission Medals, seven of them helmet, bodysuit, legs and four weapon skins, and the eighth is the Wiggling Cactus itself, listed as a pet. Medals come from weekly live event challenges, cannot be bought with money, and redeem at the Pioneers Guild.
So the whole loop is: play the events, bank the Medals, buy the set, and the Follower is one of the pieces. Monthly sets rotate, which makes any given Follower on this track a limited window rather than a permanent purchase. The currency side is covered on Currencies and the event side on Live Events and Commissions.
A Note on Guild Caches
Several Followers list a Guild Cache as their source, and the name is misleading if you read it quickly. A Guild Cache is a chest you open after handing in Pioneer tasks, graded from tier 1 to tier 6, and it rolls one item from each of several loot categories. It has nothing to do with player guilds.
Player guilds have not shipped. Guild creation, rosters and a shared home sit on the studio's roadmap for after Early Access, with guild bases further out again, so nothing on this page depends on them.
No Longer Obtainable
A drone walker given out for a demo-era dungeon quest, and a walking pot from an early community event, are both recorded as retired. Beyond those, a long list of Followers documented before Early Access is flagged the same way, and much of it belongs to the retired browser build rather than to the current game. If a Follower is not in the roster table above, assume it is historical until an event proves otherwise.
Notes
Follower names and sources describe the live Early Access build as of 26 August 2026. Event-sourced Followers rotate with the event calendar, and the achievement list grows with each content update, so this roster is a snapshot. For the rideable key items that are often confused with Followers, see Mounts; for the vendors and NPCs named here, see NPCs.
