Bug: Bearers told to "Stay" will still come to defense of player

Game mode: Online
Problem: Bug
Region: N/A


Any thrall capable of following you that is told to stop following will still come to your aid if attacked. This has lost me multiple Bearers, in particular because Bearers aren’t suited to combat. I don’t want them to fight. They should not fight if I tell them to stay. Please add a control that turns off their aggression, or at least turn off aggression completely for Bearers.


Steps on how to reproduce issue:

  1. Break a Bearer’s will.
  2. Deploy the Bearer. Instruct her to follow you.
  3. Go near a bandit camp. Tell Bearer to stay outside the camp in a safe location.
  4. Engage bandits.
  5. As soon as you start fighting them, watch the Bearer go full kamikaze on bandit of her choice.
