How do I release henchmen?

The "remove from party" option in the radial menu does not seem to work.
Thanks.

You have to talk to them. Every henchman has a chat option to have them leave the party.

I ask because of animal empathy.
I can't seem to be able to get rid of empathied animals and they won't open any dialogue window when interacted with either.

Couple of things I've found cause this:

Having them under your direct control via the associate tool will stop you from dismissing them, and I believe I read a report that you have to dismiss the second henchman first, or the first henchman won't dismiss.

I've never had this issue directly (aside from associate tool shenanigans), but I always dismissed them via right clicking their models, not the portrait. If that changes anything at all, I genuinely have no idea.

I get this all the time with double dominate. After a while of having double dominated henchies, a few zone transitions, etc, it becomes impossible to release them. The only ways I've found to get rid of them when that happens is to either transition servers, rest, or log out.

Unselect all summons by clicking associate tool on your character. Then type in -dismiss
