Thanks for posting that video, it helps to see it from someone who is not having the problems. Could you make another video please, I want to see what happens with autofollow.
1. Get someone/friend to target you and /follow
2. Start Fraps and swing your camera view around so you can see them
3. Now start running forward
4. After about five seconds stop and wait for them to catch up to you and stop
5. Stop Fraps
If we can get videos of this from people who are not having problems dodging AoE's then maybe we can see a difference in /follow - which uses the positional updates.
Thanks.
