About 1 in 2 times they will just attack whatever they want to, no matter how much you spam the target.
Is the only way to open each of their control panels up and set targets? if so thats far too clumsey, and your party could be dead by the time you have each target set
This has been one of the most frustrating things in the game for me. Before heroes, henchies would always follow your target, which made them better than most pugs even though they were weaker. But now, sometimes I feel like I'm playing with a pug again. It's not as bad when they're on guard, but it still doesn't solve the problem. It seems almost that the only way I can get them to focus on my target is to make sure it's the first target within aggro range. Otherwise, I suspect they just attack whoever attacks them first. I find it very annoying when I'm trying to kill the ele and I'm the only one causing him damage, while all the heroes are busy killing some warrior.
And the henchies basically act like heroes on aggressive. I would REALLY like it if they stopped devona from running far out of my aggro circle after monsters, or mhenlo from running out of my aggro circle (and into a group of monsters) to rez.
One of the most amusing examples of this, for me, happened the first time I tried to do gates of desolation. I flagged my heroes and henchies on the hill with me, far from the sulphur. And made sure my heroes were set on guard. Despite this, at one point, Devona and Sousuke followed the retreating wurm queen far into the sulphur, almost at the edge of the radar, and died. And no I had no "adjacent" spells on Sousuke. I finished the mission regardless, but still. We're given controls for the heroes, but what's the point if they don't follow them?
