Hey, I was recently playing my Monk and I noticed that when I'm in my Sword / Shield set, they gather round me.
And while I'm wielding my Staff, they all go infront of me.
Never knew about this myself, but does anyone else notice this?
Heroes -- They act differently corresponding to your weapon?

:O no i never noticed that. Though i'm sure it has something to do with the AI.

i just tried that out, and its true, when using martial weps the h&h gather around me like:
HHH
HMH
HH
H=Hero or Hench
M=Me
And when i use a stay or wand they go around me like this:
H H H
H H H
HM
Same Notations.
Nice find

Also heroes will cast weapon spells on your if you have a sword/shield even if your a caster.

Also with Blood ritual, hold a staff or wand, and you get a nice dose of energy from you necro hero/hench

The future of hero and henchmen AI is branching!

Also, it's not just martial weapons vs. caster weapons. If you change from sword/shield to a bow, H/H will also change their arrangement around you.

The Mirage Iboga on the Marga Coast cast that adrenaline-denying skill on my warrior even though I'm wielding Chedekur's Deliverance, because I am a warrior. I just laugh and keep wanding them.
But, yes, that's a trick I learned back in the Proph days while playing with hench. If I used a wand, the squishy hench grouped around me while the fighters rushed to engage the mobs; if I used a sword, the squishies would follow me into the melee.

I'm pretty sure this has always been in place. It's the henchmen formation, where they surround to protect you based on what weapon you've got. You will always be in the centre (physical weapon) or rear-centre (caster weapon).

Never noticed that but its pretty cool.
