Companions are decent in easier content. They can be used as an extra damage source, and you can also use them to draw enemy attention. They are quite helpful to new players but not good enough to bring in harder encounters. Overall, Mirri is a good Magicka DPS and Healer Companion but poor in Tank and Stamina DPS roles.
