What Pride Has Wrought Rituals

Not sure what happens there as I didn't have such problem. However if it's companions that bug the place, try with tactics view while ordering everyone to hold their position and then moving just one character.

I tried that and I tried guiding the main character with the tactical view while ordering everyone to hold. They just rubberband next to the main character.

There is also something broken with giving directions using tactical mode there. It somehow super restricted for followers.

So in short... No, doesn`t work

Even if it did, it would still leave the random resetting unsolved.

I was going to make a whole new thread on this, but I cannot agree more. There are more people complaining about silent companions than there are complaining about this game breaking mechanic of them NOT HOLDING STILL FOR FIVE MINUTES!

It has gotten to the point where it is literally making me burn with rage. These rituals are not hard. In fact if it weren't for this ridiculous bug, they would be brain dead easy. But because my companions won't stay still, I cannot complete the last ritual (the one with the gate). I tell them to hold position with the wheel, and they follow me after only 20 seconds of actual real holding. I use the tactic view and have them hold and THEY STILL MOVE TO ME. Sometimes it's not even them running, it's like they just warp to my position, or rubberband as the OP said. 

If the rituals weren't tied to some kind of choice, I would just jump down the hole and be down with this. But because I want to play right, I have to do these rituals. 

The companions inability to obey commands, regardless of the terrain or distance of my character, should be the number one priority in a hot fix. This is just ridiculous. 

I'm having the same aggravating problems with my companions warping to my location in the same ritual site... i may just put this game on hold until this rather annoying bug is patched, or we figure out a way to tactical command the party to stay frakkin put.

To this day, it is not fixed. On the brink of ripping my hair out.
