.. it has none.. or at least, instead of using it's eyerays, it simply charges to melee and dies.

It still charges straight into melee without ever using an eyeray.

Familiars might not get their ray/blast powers until you're at a certain caster level, I think, and the number of times they can use such ranged touch attack improves with levelling as well. You can see familiar stats and abilities if you just roll up a wizard character quick in a single player mod, give them a level, then once at the familiar screen, click on the question mark next to each familiar selection for more details.

They start out with an eyeray, at level 1, And get 1 or more at each level, The AI has changed. My Eyball has gone from sniper tactics, To kamikaze tactics, within the last 3 months. It rarely uses it's abilities, and when it does, it's usually at a point which isn't useful in any mindset. (IE attacking a monster as it dies.) It at one point in the past few months, Wasn't even using it's rays at all.

The bug report is about to be solved biologically.. originally hadn't intended it, but my next lvl will be sorc again.. just to get rid of the anoying bugged ball.
