Monster Ganking

I am really quite suprised that this hasn't been metioned already. It is really frustrating when you carefully divide the monsters and wait in an attempt to seperate them so you can attack them one at a time instead of being ganked.

Shouldn't something be done about this ...... as when a monster is really far from its patrol group and you attack it along come it's patrol group to beat you up.

Given this game is about skill & tactics it seems quite strange that there is no "divide and conquer" type technique available ...... can something be done about this?

The AI is programmed that creatures in a team help each other. Without that, your Healer Henchman would only heal herself, and the others would only attack what attacks them. Try a divide and conquer strategy on groups, instead of individuals. For linked creatures, you're just going to have to kill off what you can first so there are less things hurting you.
