Today I was playing Iron Mines with a friend and its hard to get a group with two warriors. Well at the very end I was trying to aggro and well the warriors ran up the hill, which I expect (can't expect too much from AI). Well We ran back to regroup and waited for Aleshsia to start to res. We got the dead person in our aggro, but she just ran over his dead body being stupid. Well as she ran over his dead body she got killed. So my friend rezed her. Then in attempt to rez the same guy she ran over the dead body doing nothing. Once again she re-aggroed another monster and got killed. Then I re-rezed her with my signet, but she did the same. It was frustrating she would not rez, and had to waste our signets trying to get her re-rezed a few times

Alesia and Henchmen are dumb, when rezzing, when I play my monk, before a hench dies from group of 6 tough dudes, they rez me and I DIE, because they are surrounding me. I am like you die, and WE ALL will get rezzed. Alesia was probably trying to rez the dead guy mauybe because he was a monk. And when she didnt rez him, she was probably healing the group. Healing the group is more important then rezzing a dead guy, and letting someone else die.

I had a funny thing like this the other day. I took a party of henchmen with me from the iron mines to try to get to marhans, running around the mursaat. I later found it was impossible because all the passages were blocked by the mursaat so i would have to get to thunderhead and infuse.
However, I was running through and as I crossed a bridge, the tail end of the group (probably orion) caught two jdade bows, who began to chase us. Then for some reason another group of mursaat came up in front of us, killed me and a few others, then suddenly ran away, I don't know why. The Jade bows behind us killed some, including alesia, then ran back across the bridge. As soon as they are across the bridge, they disappear from the radar. Only henchies Lina, Reyna and Claude are left. Now, Lina, as she is annoyingly programmed, begins to try to run over to alesia on the other side of the bridge. She runs over, then the jade bow suddenly appear on the radar and she runs back again. They disappear, so she runs again, then they re-appear, she runs back. She simply kept runnning back and forth until I eventually decided to quit.
Henchies resurrecting needs definitely to be improved. The non-monk henchies should use their resurrect on others as well as alesia and lina. And alesia and lina shouldn't try to res in the middle of a battle when healing would be a better option.
