Larian Studios Forums Beyond Divinity (English) Help/Tips/Tricks Can you tell your deathknight to follow you?

I don't particularily like having to click him with the select all in order to get him to move with me. I want him to follow me around and then I can give him orders when necessary. I would prefer him to just follow me and attack (I put him in aggressive mode) so that I don't have to babysit him all the time. I was hoping there was a way and if there is, please tell me how. Thank you.

You can not set him to always follow you, but you can assign a hotkey to Select All (IIRC the default is F5, or something) which would at least be easier than using the mouse.

To select all your party memebers (DK, Hero and what ever dolls you have summonsed at the time), press F4.... to change which of the characters lead the party, press F5.


The leader will have a white and gold/yellow frame around his portrait,

while the selected members will have a white frame.

If any members are NOT selected, they will have a grey frame / apear not to have a frame around the portrait.

You can also hold down shift (or was it control???? One of the two <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" /> ) and click on the party members' portraits that you want to select.

Thank you both for the replies, but I was already familiar with those things. The reason I asked my question was because when I hold CTRL down to target the nearest enemy, it gets annoying to have BOTH my characters go after the nearest when I'd rather only have my main character go after them and have my deathknight guard me.

I reassigned the character selection hotkeys to 1/2/3 and select all to the ` key (beside the 1 key), so they would all be together and to free up the function keys (for spell and potion hotkeys). My hero archer was set to aggressive, so if I wanted to have my DK and hero attack different targets, I would usually just select the DK to control and let the hero attack whatever was closest. Occasionally, for tough fights, I would switch characters as required to manage targets more precisely.
