More Servant Functionality

44 votes

Perhaps adding a button where you can ask a servant to follow you like an ally and fight with you (maybe you have to "rent" them out like this for a blood essence cost). If they get downed, the recovery time can be much more than it currently is with getting injured on hunts. It would be fun in PVP to have you and a servant or two fight against another group!

Also being able to ask them to stay in a certain room, or "pin" them to an area they protect. I really enjoy having a room for my servant caskets and it would be nice to be able to set them into defensive positions easier. Maybe when they are pinned to an area, they can automatically loot things on the ground making pseudo automation for crypts and such?

This idea came to me yesterday when I was struggling to move servants to a specific spot in the castle.
Right now you can do that by movnig the Servants coffin and re-summon them. This can be very tedious if you've stuffed your rooms full of other items.
What I would like is the following:

1: Ability to sit in the Castle Throne and get an overview of your castle layout with each room that's surrounded by a wall (or fence) be selectable for specific servants to go to and patrol. Pretty much the way you send out Servants now, but then for your own castle.

AND

2: Ability to charm a Servant so it follows you to the place you walk to. Then stop the charm to make them stop following you.

I would guess the #2 suggested feature would be the easiest to implement but would love to see both!

Agreed. And there could be an item I call the "Servant Bell" that you use to summon a particular servant (you can inscribe the name of the specific servant it should summon) to your side and they'll stay with you until you ring it again to send them back, or they die and go back on their own. In either case the bell becomes unusable for a bit.

There should probably be a limit to how many servants you can take with you and this could be modified in the server settings. "Allowed Servant Followers (1-3)". I think even one is a pretty big help though.
