Has anyone else noticed an improvement in Alesia's AI?

I have not played my Smithing Mo/W in a while but before she use to get herself into the mix and die almost all the time. Right now I am playing an Ele/Mo and she seems to stay pretty much out of the mix and does a better job healing. (so much better that I am considering not equiping my res spell)

So is she just staying by me or have other's noticed a better AI with her?

Improved Henchmen movement AI so that they more closely follow the player and avoid getting stuck.

AI improved, less getting stuck, less runing around wildly, more logical priorities, they even run our of aoe.

Alesia still pretends to be a tank when I use her.

I've noticed they get out of AOE damage better, but besides that, the henchies suck as much as they did before.

Alesia still think's that she's invincible and runs ahead of me when I use her... Course at that point she usually dies as she aggro's everything and they all hit her :P

Their AI is better than it was before as they do tend to get out of AoE more often and they do try and run away from targets if they aren't a fighter type. It's also easier to pull critters now as they will 90% of the time follow you when you move away to draw critters your way.. although Stefan still has some "CHARGE!" issues which either prompty gets him killed or the player into a much bigger/harder fight than what they expected/wanted.

Their was another thread about this not very long back. Some people like it, some people complain about it, and some even claim that nothing changed.
