Talonpriest Ishaal is finally going to have someone who wants to go on missions with him. Follower races which previously had no synergy traits, such as the arakkoa, will now have them available via special mission rewards.

New/updated follower traits

• The Wildling trait increases success chance when on missions with beast followers. Taught by Winning with Wildlings.
• The Mechano Affictionado increases success chance when on missions with machine or construct followers. Taught by Grease Monkey Guide.
• The Bird Watcher trait increases success chance when on missions with arakkoa followers. Taught by Guide to Arakkoa Relations.
• The Ogre Buddy trait increases success chance when on missions with ogre followers. Taught by Ogre Buddy Handbook.
• The Speed of Light trait reduces mission duration, similar to Epic Mount. Taught by Sun-touched Feather of Rukhmar.
• The Treasure Hunter trait increases gold rewarded by missions by 100%. This trait appears to be unique to Harrison Jones.
• Scavenger now increases Garrison Resource rewards by 100% (down from 200%). Note that many of these missions have had their base rewards increased to compensate, e.g. Can't Go Home This Way was buffed from 175 base resources to 300.

There will also be more opportunities to reroll traits and abilities on your followers with Follower Ability Retraining Guide and Follower Trait Retraining Guide. Both of these are rewarded from several new missions, and they can also be purchased for 1500 Garrison Resources each from your garrison quartermaster. As someone who has had awful luck acquiring Follower Retraining Certificates, I'm all for this new way to spend resources.
