Default How to Follow Closer

Anyone have any idea on how to make your Slaves follow your main super close like on top of the main basically i forgot how to do this and its a hassle to have my slaves running up to where my main is going to cast cause the mob is usually dead by the time they get there.

Using /follow will always place your guys right around 4 yards behind your main.

i currently use the /follow command and the slaves are about 4-5 yards behind but i remember multiboxing 4 shamans a year ago with keyclone and i had all 4 stacked right on top of eachother its just been so long i forgot what i needed to do to make that happen again because i waste cast dps time waiting for the slaves to run up.

You will have to manually move them on top of you main. There is no real macro or technique other than movement keys to perform the function you are describing

You can control the zoom of the camera, but not the auto follow of your slaves behind the leader.

You can manually adjust the slave position, via a movement key -- which breaks follow. Your latency is a big part of follow distance, as is the pathing for the area you are in. Whether your toons are at 30 yards or 10 yards, once you press the /Follow macro (or enter /Follow), they move up the same distance.

Keyclone, Pwnboxer, IS Boxer, HKN, GCP etc, won't have a different follow setting from another software.

Jamba Strobe follow (or any other addon which spams /Follow every couple seconds), might seem different, but it is the same /Follow.

There is a server latency bug which might give the appearance of having them stacked on top of another. I've seen this a few times, which I usually just /logout and relog to correct.

But yea, 4-5 yards, its all good

i like them being a little bit behind becuase if they are ontop of you they turn around in all different directions trying to follow you

The actual distance that they follow behind depends on your movement speed. The faster you move (either because of buffs, enchants, or a mount) the greater distance the slaves will follow.

Like others have said, there isn't anything you can really do to get them to follow closer if you are going at a normal run speed.
