Orders your followers to enter a guard mode, which makes them attack anything that attacks you.
is this a new development that has come in game or simply a suggestion?
For interest who does or would this cope with attacks from multiple mobs?
Either way the functionality is easy aleady by building a trigger
%1 hates your guts!
order followers assist @player
or
order undead assist @player (prevents supplications etc joining battle)
I have this in place and have used for years … actually I have a toggle for various actions on fightstart that I toggle on or off as required e.g. web @target / blast @target / kick @target etc.
(This works well until godsanc comes along with dark cloak in which case assist success rate drops from approx 95% to 70%)

Order lag is a real concern for those with necro lower in classo. A trigger like that could be dangerous in some situations.
I believe pit fiend is the only pet that auto assists. One issue with auto-assisting pets is that shapeshifting + pets would be a little over the top.
