In Freedom Wars Remastered, during Operations, you have the flexibility to select three comrades to accompany you, alongside your Accessory and their gear. While you can't directly control the equipment of your comrades, only enhancing their gear as a whole, your Accessory stands out with its unique customization and command options. Here’s how you can tailor your Accessory and issue specific commands to optimize their performance in combat.
Customizing your Accessory in Freedom Wars Remastered is straightforward and mirrors the process for your own gear within the Loadout menu. Just below your player settings, you'll find the Accessory option, which opens a similar loadout interface. Your Accessory can equip any weapon at your disposal, along with any compatible Modules for that weapon.
A key difference is that Accessories don't require ammo for gun weapons, giving them a unique advantage. Additionally, you can equip your Accessory with a single combat item, which they'll use at their discretion. While limited to one weapon and one combat item, the real power of your Accessory lies in the unique commands you can issue to them.
To customize the orders for your Accessory, navigate to the Loadout menu where you can select which set of Orders you want them to use. To modify these orders, interact with your Accessory in your cell and select the "Customize Accessory" option, the fifth from the top. This allows you to tailor any available commands into a set that suits your strategy. You can also increase the number of orders in a set by purchasing the "Right To Assign Orders Entitlements" from the Window of Liberty Interface Entitlements under the Accessory section. Remember, you must choose which Order Set to use before an Operation, as you can't change them mid-mission. The available orders include:
You can issue these orders at any time during an operation by pressing up on the D-pad or the C key on PC. This allows your Accessory to focus on specific tasks, while your comrades tackle broader objectives.
To maximize the effectiveness of your Accessory, consider equipping the following orders:
Order | Explanation |
---|---|
Carry Citizen | Use this command to have your Accessory transport citizens between extraction points, freeing you and your comrades to engage the enemy. |
Prioritize Revival | In intense battles, this command ensures your Accessory stays close and revives you immediately if you're knocked out. |
Rescue Comrades | Your comrades may fall, but their Thorns make them more combat-effective than your Accessory. This order helps keep them in the fight. |
Use Medical Supplies | Equip your Accessory with First Aid Kits to turn them into a dedicated healer, keeping your team alive and fighting. |
While your Accessory can deal significant damage with an upgraded weapon, it's often more strategic to arm them with a powerful gun and utilize them as a support unit rather than a frontline fighter.
