Followers can either be temporary NPC's that will travel and fight along the player's side, or more persistent types akin to in Diablo II. An example of the followers were shown in the first gameplay video as two archers followed the and attacked the enemies close to them. Persistent Followers were later unveiled in an official video featuring three different archtypes.

Persistent Followers

Example of the Templar Follower panel

These followers will only be usable in solo play; if another player joins the game, the Follower will head back to their caravan and will not be available until there is only one person in the game again. Players will have access to all three of the Followers, though only one can accompany the player into battle at a time. Players are able to switch out their Followers when at their caravan. All three Followers will level automatically with the player, even when not being used, and should keep up with the player's level. Followers can't actually die; instead, if the Follower's health drops to zero, he or she simply gets knocked unconscious and the player will suffer a 15 to 20 second downtime while the Follower recovers. Players will be able to revive their Followers more quickly by channeling on them. Followers are intended for difficulty play; they will become increasingly weak throughout , becoming all but unusable by .

Equipment

Players will be able to improve their Followers by equipping them with gear. Followers will each come with a weapon slot (main-hand/off-hand), one amulet slot, two ring slots, and one class-specific item slot. The class-specific item slot is unlocked at level 18.

Skills

At levels 5, 10, 15, and 20, a new tier of skills will become available for the Follower. Players will be given a choice of three different skills per tier and may only have up to four active at a time.
