Any suggestions for how folks do the following:
You are controlling 12 characters (2 groups) or even one group.
Normally I just camp in an area.. turn on KA (manually for some toons).. auto for others.. then manually pull a mob to the camp (such as dragon in CS).. and everything works great.
but what about something like engaging Vox in her lair.. what I have been doing is turning off KA.. putting everyone on following.. racing into lair... turning on KA once I get in room.. this sort of works.. but takes a few seconds for characters to start acting.. and when/if they try to mem a spellset.. it may get interrupted.. ect ect...
How do others do this sort of thing? is there a way to start KA.. but everyone on pause.. have them follow.. then unpause everyone with one /bcaa command?
Thanks in advance...
 
most folks will either do something like you mentioned - pausing the toons and having them follow, or utilizing the chaseme functionality
 
I dont like to move 54 toons in general public zones.

To move to most raids - I run 3 rogues...Drop a campfire at the raid instance guy.
Get the instance with one of the rogues.
Campfire the whole fellowship in. dgae /useitem "Fellowship Insignia registration"
Drop a Banner.
Then Banner in the rest of the raid. dgza /Yes

When moving about in the raid instance or moving to the actual raid mob.

Start KA on all toons. (Usa amacro to start KA on everyone at once)
All KA start with /chaseon

For most raid mobs you can even engage with chase on.
 
I'm on EMU server (Up to Velious expansion), so think most of that stuff you mentioned not for me..
but do something like this?
start KA on all toons
/bcaa //chaseon
do a follow me command or stick command..
Then move into Vox lair? or need to do /bcaa //chaseoff?

or will this work?
/bcaa //mpq on
have toons follow - run into vox lair
Then hotkey /bcaa //mpq off
?
Do I need to turn off return to camp too? and set it again too?

starting and stopping KA just isn't working well...
 
Then move into Vox lair? or need to do /bcaa //chaseoff?
It does depend on the mob, but most of the time you will find that you dont really need to do a /chaseoff

Your MA Attacks the Mob, and everyone goes into their combat routines. ie running behind and beating on it.

After the mob is dead and xtar is empty - they will start chasing you again.

so to re-iterate.
/bcaa //chaseon
run to spot...
Kill mob

All your toons should just follow you around like a little puppy.

Can even do an "AFK check" by moving somewhere and seeing which toon is NOT following you. There is usually one!
