Being able to walk through your own team mates? I know that enemies have always been unwalkable through. But today I've been twice trapped by my own hero's and didn't realize untill the second time what was going on. I got caught in a corner and wasn't able to move at all untill they moved off. Maybe it's always been that way but strange that in two years I've never been trapped by H+H.

Maybe it has, but it seems only in the last week have I been noticing little odities. Iknow that you've never been able to walk through oponents, but usually you can just walk straight through your own team, I always just figured it was that way to avoid idiots on your team blocking you from doing anything, and to keep you from being stuck. Like in one point today I got too close to a wall and my H+H made a perfect wall around me. Now in the old days Pre NF that would have meant failure of a mision.

I noticed this recently too. It only seems to happen on random occasions though. It used to really piss me off, my henchies were constantly bodyblocking me, but then ANet fixed it.
Found this in update archive.

    Removed collision between members of the same team, including minions and pets. This change applies only to roleplaying missions and areas.

ahhhhh, been doing Zaishen elite to buildup skills for my guys. I was facing a bunch of IWAY so I hid back at the start and was moving my guys using flag sto avoid my mages from dumping their spells when they do the arrow attack. and after that I tried to move my hero but I couldn't, and it went on for about 10 seconds, then it was fine didn't catch on.

Then next match I ran into another warrior group and pulled back but I came back too sharply and ended up next to the wall in the gate and suddenly I was stuck again, this time I realized that I was in the tiny little indentation in the wall and my hero's had bunched up next to me preventing me from backing off.

I can remember this happening in the early days of Prophecies. Had to restart a mission once because my henchies boxed me in and refused to move. If it was removed, as posted above, then it sounds like a glitch that needs to be reported to ANet if it is happening now.

Heh I never ran into boxing in, but I remember having to restart areas because my hero that had ressurrect was half way across the map and I don't find out till the rest of the part was dead.
