Basic Info:

Platform: Xbox Series X
Issue Type: Gameplay
Game Mode: Online Official
Server Type: PvE
Map: Exiled Lands
Server Name: 2505

Bug Description:

I have an issue where my thralls, which are set to aggressive, will attack for a couple of combos and then stop. They will not fight after that unless they are hit or, if I move their weapon from their inventory to their main hand or vice versa. If I’m hit or another thrall is hit, they also don’t regain agro on the enemy. Only the thrall that is hit will regain agro. So they aren’t even acting as though they are set to defensive. I’ve attached 3 separate videos showing this behavior during a single run of the unnamed city. But it has been consistent since the last update.

Bug Reproduction:

Have thrall(s), fight bosses, watch them lose agro and just sit there until they get hit again or you move their weapon

Do you have them sit in chairs when placing followers?
It appears to be a bug that has been around for a long time.
If you make them all stand up and wait for the server reset, it will be fixed.

Interesting. I do usually make them sit. I’ll have them stand today and see if that works.

4

Seriously? Will try that. As in EVERY thrall has to be standing, then server reset or only the ones you used recently?

5

The most commonly used followers are standing.
If you don’t plan to use them, don’t bother.
Once you use a follower who is seated, let him stand and wait for the server reset

This actually seems to work… Wow! Thanks!

Yep. Not placing them in seats / slots does seem to avoid the issue. It’s a fabulous and unexpected workaround. Thank you very much!

The real fix will of course be for Funcom to fix it so we can use seats and have working thralls.
