Stupid companions?

Anyone else notice a dramatic drop in the IQ of their companions recently? I have a healer, and he'd always run away from mobs during a fight, but now he seems to make a beeline for the next set of mobs, even if he has to cross a lot of ground to get there. Come on guys, should they really such idiots?

    I don't know if this is new or always have been like that.

    It was in mod 5. I have a HR who was under power because he was level 40 but carrying a level 25 bow. That was my mistake because I did not pay attention and accidentally skipped a quest that could yield a better bow. Anyway, my HR took a long time to kill anything. At that time, my healer just ran out to beat the mob for me. :-(

    It did not happen after I found my problem and got a better bow.

    Right now, may be the healer feels shame that we are so useless, he has to do something. ;-)

    My partner's rat companion seems to be pretty intelligent.. he seems to have a knack of running into the middle of a mob and knocking them all back, especially when I'm trying to revive her. Pretty awesome. It buys me the time I need to revive her and then start throwing my new daggers around.
