RE: Noobish Henchmen 

In Tyria or Cantha?

Tyrian henchmen will keep fighting no matter what. Even if all the human characters are ten miles away, the henchmen will keep fighting, and they'll actually do reasonably well unless they have exorbitant amounts of death penalty.

Canthan henchmen have to be forced into conflicts. Half the time, even if you're up and attacking something, they'll not attack. And if you fall over, don't expect them to keep fighting, or to res you, or to heal each other... They kinda just die.

Bottom line is I'd rather have the level 15 henchmen from Tyria in battle with me instead of the level 20 Canthan ones.

RE: Noobish Henchmen 

I would have to agree with that.

Actually, I think you would have a better chance in the RoF with level 8 tyrian's than level 20 canthans.

Canthans will chase an enemy to the ends of the earth, aggro every other group, and die before they even think of rezzing you. And if you die in the middle of a major huge important battle, They will rez you and die while doing so.

Tyrian will wait until the very end, and unless the monk know's it has time to rez, it won't. Plus, they won't chase the enemy all over to kill it.



Rein Garamonde-N/E-pyro Burn, baby, burn! (Completed everything, Finished capping N and E skills. Patiently waiting for Nightfall.)
Noel Klaine-E/Me-Hydro, Rock you like a hurricane.(Finished Cantha, getting there in tyria.)
Rosa Chere-R/E-Interupt Spiker. Shocking.(Finished everything, no more caps for Ranger, waiting for my lightning caps. Patiently waiting for Nightfall.)
Apollo Aileron-W/E-Geo. Like a Rock.(Working with brother, just made it to LA.)
Shadow Lanford-A/Mo. Stabby Stabby. (Surpringly capable assassin, better than most tanks. Finishing up cantha.
Galuf Crowley-Rt/Mo. Wounds, what are those? (on way to kaineg. once again, working with brother.)

Or they kind of just not die, and run back and forth, forcing you to zone back to the town and restar whatever you were doing from scratch..

RE: Noobish Henchmen 

well, in my case it was in cantha. between Senji's Corner and Tahnnakai Temple, just after you zone from Senji's, you pass the first bridge and then my friend had to be afk so I thought, wtf, I can make it alone (I was prot monk with my little 6 henchmen).
So the henchmen and I wen't and aggroed the first groupe, I dided almost instantly because ritualist and mages did 500+ dmg on me in like 1½ sec :P, and then the henchmen just stoped fighting :S.

I don't know what happend, but then my friend came back and ressed me, but had after 1 mob he had to be afk again.

So now I had 15%dp and I wen't to next mob, dided after some minutes and henchmen again stoped fighting.

then I just left because it was just gay :P

RE: Noobish Henchmen 

Yep; I was trying to Fight/Run my way to the Copperhammer mines and I got half way and then died. The result was two confused henchman running in circles around my dead body. At least, one and a half hours work wasted. :(

It's better to be silent and have people think your a fool than to speak and remove all doubt.
