I just tried switching from wolves to squirrels thanks to finding a "Herald of the Scurry" helmet. Since it states "You can summon squirrels up to twice your companion limit" I unassigned the "Safety in numbers" node.

However, even though my character screen still states that I can have up to 5 companions, I can only summon 2 squirrels. Is this a bug or am I missing somthing here?
This is my first time playing LE, but a guide on Maxroll for this seems to follow the same principle: https://maxroll.gg/last-epoch/build-guides/squirrel-beastmaster-guide

Do you have a passive node which limits you to one companion? This would make your squirrel limit 2.
