    Just a question, did the followers you saw have a name? Because if so, they could be the bankers and assistants from the crown store.

    As far as I know, there is no way for people to get followers to follow them outside of quest specific areas.

    For instance, if I were to do Quest X and NPC Y will be with me throughout the duration of Quest X - NPC Y will only be with me in the set location where Quest X is. If Quest X is in a cave, then NPC Y will stay with me anywhere in that cave but once I leave the set area, NPC Y will leave.

    Hope that helps!

    The other day I was on a quest in Wrothgar. I had just started when someone else, who I didn't know, asked me to team up, I did. When we finished that quest. He then asked me to help him with another quest, also in Wrothgar. But miles away, so we went to the nearest Wayshrine and he teleported, as you do. I couldn't remember the quest's name that he wanted my help with, and I thought how do I find where he went? So I brought the Wayshrines map up and scanned Wayshrines, until I saw one with a white crown, that signifies your leader. So I teleported there and followed him to where he wanted me to go.

    You could have used Group Tool, right click on name of group member to bring up options and one is a teleport to nearest WS.

    Could have been the banker assistant etc. If it was an NPC that helps on a quest most of the quests seem to be set up with an invisible circle around them and if you go out of this area the npc disappears. I personally found one quest by accident that seemed to be set up that if you crossed a line to the left on the map the npc disappeared however if you went right he stayed with you, that npc helped me on a bunch of quests before I went and did what he wanted me to do :-) cant remember the name of the quest but it was in the rift, at the bottom of the map and had something to do with a dragon shrine

    I know that there is a invisible circle around the quest area I have tried myself to trick that to get the follower to follow me it didn't work they disappear when you leave the area but somehow people are glitch in it or bypassing the invisible barrier i'm not the only one who have seen this one of my friends said he went into a dungeon and there were like 15 Mage guild followers ffollowing 15 player s they were all together just standing there and that dungeon does not have any followers related with any quess for I have bet this game 2 times now

    Does anyone know the answer to this?

    Have seen it previously & is not a banker or merchant or npc for that quest - I was obviously doing the same quest & did not have the option of a follower. Saw again last night.

    They are called Guild Mage / Fighter and though they are the same as ones that you do get in some quests - but I thought they are tied to a certain area for that quest. (So not like Skyrim when at one point you could have 3 followers plus dog if you went off the quest line) How have people managed to circumvent this?

    There's a quest in The Rift where you get a follower in a camp and then go off to where the action is, but if you don't go straight there your follower stays with you. They won't go everywhere with you but it's close. Can't remember exactly what/where it is but it's the bottom leftish corner of the map and I'm pretty sure it's the one with all the towers and Harvesters. Also, I think I remember that if you lose the follower you have to abandon the quest and pick it up again to get them back. Been a while since I did this so sorry I don't remember all the details!
