Default borrowing heroes

I wanted to borrow heroes from my friend so I could vanquish whole ascalon with 6 heroes starting from ToA. But when I changed area his heroes disappeard. Was it always like that or is it some new great feature? I'm so pissed right now

Been that way since the beta testing in Prophecies.

...basicly; It's always been that way.

You should just find someone who needs a caravan vanquish. Then pay a runner to run you,your heroes,someone,there heroes. Go from ToA so it is 8 man. Then when you get to where you want to start vanquishing pay the runner and he will leave. Or just offer to vanquish the areas for him while he afk's.
Honestly though it is pretty simple to vanquish the entire ascalon region with 4 man. I ran sabway the entire time and basically was me doing nothing the entire time.

I know, I had legendary vanquisher on my ranger, but I was banned for hfff (stupid admins cant tell who is a bot and who isn't). I just didnt want to go through this hell again, so I thought I will make it easier for myself.

That won't work - heroes only follow their master, so you're down to a 4-man party (you & your heroes).

I've been vanquishing for awhile using two accounts for the 6 heroes, more for the fun than any real challenge (henchies do a fair job with Sab's or Rac's). Logout one account at the start of the instance - their heroes remain as 'super-henchies' and will follow you. As soon as you zone you lose the logged out player's heroes...AFAIK it's been that way since heroes were introduced.

UW/FoW's interesting too - as soon as you complete a quest, the 'super-henchies' are removed from the party list but remain with the party. They still get heals / buffs from other party members, you just can't target them using the red bars.
