Please give two more functions to heros...

1. Spread... man this will help a lot to avoid AeO spells...

2. Hold... let them stay closer this help with wards...

Yeah, I hate when they move when I want them to stad their ground completely, or when they leave wards, wells, sanctuaries and capture areas.

So I had this Idea long time ago:

Please, take a look at it. It adds in one single step both your options, allowing a quick precise setting with a single gesture.

ok, i will say /notsigned to this idea.
I have found ways to spread heroes while fighting and it adds difficulty to PVE. Making a spread feature would make PVE a lot easier than it already is. Remember, that there are people out there who can vanquish almost any zone with heroes and henchmen and the things they would be able to do with those features..

I disagree. I think that a "spread" feature should be incorporated, since, well, normal people don't let their team get wiped by AoE creatures. At least, people with brains don't. And just because people CAN clear areas with current features doesn't mean it wouldn't be NICE to have a button that helps with BASIC strategy.

Maybe it could be added when they put 7 heroes in? *cough*

Just add a toggle "loose formation" and "tight formation." In tight they'd stand and stay close to the flag, not being easily pulled off. In loose they'd spread out and have greater freedom of movement.

I wouldn't qualify the behavior of henchman as "difficulty", I'd qualify it as "irrational". They behave in nonsensical ways much of the time. Anything to negate that is, IMHO, good.

Not many. And people who are at the tippy top of PvE skill shouldn't be the reference point for game behavior anyway. It makes no more sense to define the difficulty of the game around them than to define it around people who can't get out of pre without getting killed multiple times. I'll bet the middle spread of players probably find henches and heroes to be thoroughly frustrating for their bizarre, often game-ending behavior.

People with brains? Do they keep them in the same place as the unicorns and greys?

it would be nice but its going against Anets current policy of "gently shoving" us into each others loving arms.

If the enemies can intelligently avoid aoe or stay in their wards, heroes should too.

This would also link into the fact that hero's sometimes follow you when you are pulling even though you have the flagged well away. To many time Zhed has ruined my pulling plans
