I am starting to get really annoyed by the way that thralls, even set to be aggressive, lack a response to danger around them. They will allow themselves to be hit three or even four times by an enemy before drawing their weapons and attacking. As you can imagine, in some circumstances this can be devastating.
Other times, I will send them to attack a single enemy in a group, and they will attack and kill that enemy, and then return to me and stand around getting hit by the other enemies several times before finally responding.
I remember in the past that thralls had just a bit more sense. If you sent them into a group of enemies, they attacked the group and didn’t just dispatch one of them before putting their weapons away in the middle of combat.
After nearly losing several thralls from their inaction, it’s starting to annoy me.
