1. Can I attack the opponent another way instead of clicking, like in WoW when you can click the buttons on the keyboard.

1. Can I make the party attack first, if they're henchmen - not real life players? If so, how?

Thanks for this.

If you have a target selected so that their name/health bar is at the top of your screen, you can press spacebar (this is the default setting) to attack them.

If you are the person controlling henchmen or heroes, there should be a flag underneath the map in the top right hand corner. You can click that flag and place it on the minimap or on your screen. The henchmen will go to this flag. You could, as I do a lot, flag your henchmen forward to take the aggro and then follow them in. Hoped this help, PM me if you want any more help.

EDIT: jiggles, I didn't say flag them into the middle of a mob, ^^ they want to know how to make your henchmen attack first and flagging works just fine. Besdies, I pull with henchmen all the time with my survivor, and so far it's gone great, I haven't even had to map out yet

You should know

for henchies you can select a target and hold ctrl and hit space which will call the target and if you are in range the henchies will move in to attack.

use tab, cycles through your enemies. Ctrl + space - you calling and all npc's under your control will attack that target. Also, C targets the nearest enemy.

In regards to sk8510, flagging your henchies/heroes right into the middle of a mob isnt the smartest things to do.

Cheers, thats what I needed to know, the CTRL + Spacebar thing, because thats like WoW, what I used to play. Hoping to get into GW, but im a noob and don't know much about it.

Just to add a little alternative for non attacking char (like a healing monk), if you press CTRL + SHIFT + Space, you'll make a "call" on your target without attacking it, that's slighty different but i found it more interesting. The result will be the same, if your henchies are close enough to your target they will attack it

In Options on the Menu, you can see the list of Hot Keys and change them to suit your play.
