Yeah a "stay back" button for henchie commands would be nice. More henchie commands instead of just ATTACK would be nice also. I usually don't have a problem with rebirth though, haven't had Alesia or Mhenlo go charging in to rez at that distance yet. But, yeah most of the henchies end up with 60% loss anyways, I try to run away as soon as I see it's going to be overwhelming, but, they have this heroic idea they can win the day and don't follow me accordingly and get wiped out or worse bring the mob to where I am then die at my feet and here I go running again. lol

On the final battle on the bloodstone there are 6 mobs to kill, 2 run to the right kill them, 2 run to the left side so run round the bottom and come up to them and kill them. Leaving Hablion and abbott i think kill them mission over.

On the hencies side of things the healer always seems to run around like a headless chicken, luring everything back on to you, why she cant just stand still and heal is beyond me.

I also have had recent horrible expiriences with hench. The main one that pissed me off the most was in the dreaded maguuma jungle.:O

One fine sunny day in the tropic enviroment of the maguuma jungle. Lil Cynn decided to go cash in a quest that was 3 portals away.She began by fighting thru the first 2 portals. But then she tried to run the rest. The maguuma warriors shredded her in under two seconds. That is when Reyna had a spas attack. She kept runnimng backwards and forwards, not aggroing a monster, so sje could die and the whole party could res. Lil Cynn's owner got tired of this and threw a brick thru his computer.

Plz Anet, for the peace of humans and monitors. Plz put in a /killhenchies command or something.

Thankyou for wastibg 5 minutes of ur life and reading this thread

anyone notice that the monsters will run from the AoE spells now but yet lina will stand in the chaos storm casing through backfire?

they DEFINITELY need to improve the hench AI (i.e. make them actually flee AoE like the monsters do now) and they also need hench commands. Just a few simple commands like "stay here" "follow me" "attack my target" would make them much more useful -- they're supposed to be like human players, right? I can ask human players to stay put (please dont make Stefan a l33t hax0r though and make him run in, yes it's realistic but it's what I'm trying to avoid).
