Temple Trekking Leveling Guide — All 6 Companions to 99 (RS3)

At a glance

Do not train every companion the same way. Let Dean, Jayene, Pazuzu, and Zachory deal damage; use easy events or completion XP for Rolayne; and clear events yourself for Smiddi.

Use a different method for each companion

The reliable damage-dealing companions can gain experience while you tag enemies with your fists or a weak weapon, turn auto-retaliate off, and let them finish the fight.

• Dean, Jayene, Pazuzu, and Zachory: let the companion deal the damage
• Rolayne: use easy swamp snakes or shades, or clear easy treks for completion XP
• Smiddi: clear the events and finish treks instead of waiting for her damage

Important unlocks

Jayene is worth prioritizing because level 99 unlocks the Ouroboros pouch. Getting all six companions to 99 completes Complete Trekky and unlocks the ghast familiar.

• Ouroboros pouch: unlimited druid-pouch behavior and automatic ghast protection
• Complete Trekky: earned by bringing all six companions to level 99
• Ghast familiar: unlocked with the completed companion achievement
