Curse

It is great to see the mobs are now actually running away from AoE spells such as our beloved firestorm and symbol of wrath, so I have only one thing to say: are the developers in Anet really THAT blind to see what they missed?
Henchmen, my personal favorite party, now are a bunch of idiotic morons. Why? Because they stay in the range of AoE spells.
Scenario 1: I am a necromancer, I cast curse spells at mobs from range. AoE firestorm hit the area of the mob I aimed, Stefan and Little Thom STAY within range and continue hitting the mob and got hit by firestorm.
Scenario 2: I am a warrior, close-range combat, AoE firestorm (again) hit, I ran away, hmm wait, what am I missing, oh right, Stefan and Little Thom, again.
So either the developers forgot/can't see that they missed the henchmen AI for AoE spells, or they simply choose to ignore it to make our life miserable.

I vote for the miserable thing, but the farming's been great since the update! Henchman still rule, but I would like to see them a BIT smarter....

Symbol of wrath saved my butt tonight running some newbies to LA for the festivities. I got a big ettin group hug on that bridge in the cave . . . my 0 smiting symbol of wrath made them all run away screaming in terror
