No, You can comand your pet to attack a specific targetted enemy or you can call your pet to you with the same comand; but You can't in no way to tell Your companion to go to a position and/or to stand still on a specific position.

No. Which unfortunately makes them even more useless than they currently are. (I still have hopes that the devs will make them a *little* more useful eventually, but I’m a silly eternal optimist).

I'm really disappointed that they can't just stand on the plate in Direfrost or pull the lever in ICP. It really hurts one of the biggest things I was excited about Companions.

As a tank, it's be great to have that extra DPS boost to solo a dungeon if I just want to farm pledges or something myself. It's a great challenge and really helps to learn mechanics, but it does take ages — I can do the HM in CoHI no problem, but it takes 20 minutes.

I'd love if I could get a DPS boost from Companions, but an extra light attack every second or two isn't doing much. I'll get more help from Leeching Plate now that that's getting a bit of a buff next patch considering I keep high health.

And now we can't even get them to do Direfrost plates? That's disappointing... What's next, are they going to give one of them an unhideable cosmetic that's been unobtainable for the last five years despite all the people begging for it?

The way she's always screaming about getting my balance and checking my footing in combat, I could actually see her saying that.
