    Vanguard X

    Okay, seriously why the hell do Reinforcements all have ADHD? I swear I spend 10 minutes having to stop the one from running back....and one second later she takes off running again! Do military forces normally send people with such infinitesimal attention spans to the front-lines?

    This makes replenishing the fortifications count stressful because if its the one that constantly tries to run back (the brunette in the case of Windurst), that means you could be spending a long time just to get them to move past a certain point (usually taking off within seconds of ordering them back in line).

    I did V-X 3 through Rolanberry and Pashhow. You get no sympathy from me since non-bastok zones are easy as hell to do. -_-

    If they're being more annoying than usual, you can bring them in one at a time. Once they get out of your line of sight, they'll stop running and stay put until you talk to them again.

    And if you get the white-haired Mithra, it's usually easiest just to let her take off at the beginning because she'll always run in the direction of the stronghold until she gets too close. Once she stops, you can collect her again and keep going.

    its a 30 min time limit, go slow. Hit auto-move but make sure you're walking, and turn your camera to face the NPCs and keep your cursor highlighting one of the npcs but don't hit enter, just highlight one. the moment he runs, tap enter to keep him in check. the npcs run close to eachother so its a matter of tabbing to the other one and hitting enter. go slow, dont rush to get to the fort its a 30min time limit just chill.

    walking backwards works like a charm, just be patient.

    Having w.legs + campaign speedy feet also work if yer a bit impatient.
