David Gaider recently tweeted out (and mocked) this article ranking all the DA companions (excluding those from Awakening). Like everyone else I'm sure, my list is different. So I've made my own list to compare and I was curious how other people would rank the DA companions. I did notice that the article leaves out Loghain(!) so I've added him. Unlike the article, I've also split Bethany and Carver up into separate rankings since they're, you know, actually different characters. I still excluded Awakening and the other DLC though since they can't compare to the meat of a main game. So I have 27 characters on my list instaed of the article's 25. 27. Sebastian 26. Dog 25. Wynne 24. Cassandra 23. Blackwall 22. Carver 21. Oghren 20. Fenris 19. Bethany 18. Anders 17. Cole 16. Aveline 15. Alistair 14. Varric 13. Zevran 12. Sten 11. Vivienne 10. Dorian 9. Loghain 8. Iron Bull 7. Leliana 6. Solas 5. Sera 4. Morrigan 3. Isabela 2. Merrill 1. Shale

I've never recruited Loghain as a companion, so he's not listed. I also left off the Awakening characters (except Anders) and Dog, simply because I feel like a right bastard putting him above, below or equal to Merrill or Leliana. 1.) Merrill 2.) Leliana 3.) Cole 4.) Alistair 5.) Shale 6.) Dorian 7.) Vivienne 8.) Varric 9.) Iron Bull 10.) Sebastian 11.) Wynne 12.) Fenris 13.) Cassandra 14.) Aveline 15.) Morrigan 16.) Sera 17.) Oghren 18.) Zevran 19.) Isabela 20.) Blackwall 21.) Bethany 22.) Solas 23.) Sten 24.) Carver 25.) Anders

Everyone else is tied for last place. Actually, everyone else is tied for second to last place with Anders being last.

I love everyone, but lack the determination to do more than a top 10. Also, my list varies a lot by mood, time of day, and every other factor.
1. Aveline 2. Vivienne 3. Cole 4. Nathaniel Howe 5. Sebastian 6. Bitchy Carver Hawke 7. Sigurn 8. Shale 9. Wynne 10. Varric

God I'm bad at unquantifiable lists... I will not, however, be leaving out the Awakening cast because I like several of them more than companions from the main games.
1. Loghain 2. Morrigan 3. Merrill 4. Cassandra 5. Oghren 6. Sten 7. Isabela 8. Bull 9. Zevran 10. Shale 11. Nathaniel 12. Sigrun 13. Velanna 14. Blackwall 15. Dorian 16. Justice 17. Fenris 18. Velanna 19. Bethany 20. Alistair 21. Carver 22. Leliana 23. Sebastian 24. Varric 25. Wynne 26. Anders 27. Aveline 28. Sera 29. Vivienne 30. Solas 31. Cole
I did a few revisions to that as I was working it and could probably stand to do a few more. Top five and bottom three are very solid in their placement, others could shift up and down with my mood, up to five places for some. Also decided not to include Dog or Tallis even though I do like them more than some I put on the list. Couldn't decide on a place for them.
Edit: Varric. Forgot place for Varric.
Edit 2: Forgot Velanna and Aveline. I'm bad with strong V sounds today.

Ranking them? they need to get on with the program. it is 2017. when it comes to Bioware you are only supposed to talk about flaws and stuff now apparently. that site is filled with amazing content though like this gem: "15 things you didn't know about the biggest youtuber of all time: #12 when he play a game, it sells better."

Paragon level Cassandra Alistair Varric Solas - He didn't really stand out as a companion, but still an incredible character.
Noble level
Dorian - Wonderful friend and funny guy, but somehow I just don't like him enough to place him at top tier. Morrigan - Her petty reasons for leaving in DAO knocked her down from potential Paragon level. Sera - I find her highly entertaining despite her flaws. Leliana - She was boring as a companion, but again, overall relevance counts. Carver - I really enjoy his growth as a Grey Warden. Loghain - His stay as a companion was brief but very memorable.
Commoner level
Zevran Sten Wynne Shale Dog Nathaniel Howe Justice Sigrun Anders Aveline Bethany Merrill Isabela Fenris Cole The Iron Bull
- These are characters I did enjoy, but still pretty average.
Casteless level
Oghren Velanna Sebastian Blackwall
- Pretty forgettable. I wouldn't notice it if they were removed.
Nug shit level
Vivienne
- She is Vivienne.

Well, I will try too. This list is by no means complete:
1. Zevran 2. Varric (tie in with Zevran in fact) 3. Dorian 4. Iron Bull 5. Cassandra 6. Aveline 7. Fenris 8. Isabella 9, Wynne 10. Anders 11. Vivienne 12. Solas 13. Sten 14. Blackwall --> those are all characters, I really like
The following characters can go fighting the Nightmare in the fade and stay there: Alistair, Morrigan, Sebastian, Oghren
The rest is ok
