Follow broke

[Lyonheart]

I'm just driving both toons at the same time until there's a fix. Left hand on WASD, right hand on the arrow keys. If I have to run a far distance I throw them both on auto-run and just tap the directionals. It's easier with 2, but can't imagine how frustrating it would be with 4.

I started doing this last night. I was about to give up when I came and read this, it reminded me of how I boxed my cleric and warrior in EQ BEFORE /follow was in. I drove them both at the same time with two keyboards and auto run. I remembered loving multiboxing and the connivance of having a pocket healer. Once /follow went in, It was a dream come true, and every MMO since has had a functional /follow.

So not having follow working is a pain when your used to it working. The fix listed here allowed me to run long distances ( a ton of long runs in this game) All that being said, it still feels like work getting around, but its way better than spamming the up>follow keybind every few seconds. I found when i was at my destination I could use the follow tapping to move from objective to objective, and use the duel steering/autorun method for long runs.

I know this is cold comfort for your four boxers. I can only recommend leveling sets of 2 for a few days, and hope a fix goes in soon. The plan to do maintenance before live, so i hope they have this and other bugs on the plate for fixes soon.
