Boxing in BGs?

They won't automatically follow your new Lead, but you can set the character that you just switched to as your new Lead using the Set Target key. Pressing it normally will cycle through F2-F5 for your first Slave and using it with the Shift modifier will cycle through F2-F5 for your second Slave . This takes seconds to do.

So let's say you're running three characters. You are Leading with Character A, but then you switch to Character B and want to Lead with that one.
At this point you press the Set Target key to cycle through F2-F5 for Character A, until he/she targets your Lead. And then you press the Set Target key together with the Shift modifier to cycle through F2-F5 for Character C, until he/she targets your Lead. Then you're done and your Assist and Follow keys will now make Character A & C Assist & Follow Character B.
The system takes into account which character you are using the Set Target key from as well, so the same keypresses will work on all characters (if you switch to Character C for example, the Set Target key will cycle through F2-F5 for Character A and using the shift modifier it will cycle through the keys for Character B).
Hope that makes sense!

Ya, I watched the video and got it. It's essentially the same method I use now. I set mine up before the set target command so I couldn't have one keybind cycle, so I setup 4 per character

Until some sort of simple macro system arrives I imagine 2x or 4x will be the easiest setups to manage.

For PvE I don't see any type of setup being a problem, but for PvP I would probably agree since you may have the need to instantly switch Lead if your Lead dies. Altough that should be possible to "fix" by simply using a similar system where you pre-define keys before a match begins. The potential problems that could still occur, off of the top of my head, would be if someone leaves the WarZone and someone else joins (assuming this is possible, I haven't done any PvP yet) and as a result shifts around the Party again that you are in with your characters. But other than that, and the hassle of cycling through keys before each match, it should work.
