They don't heal. They rarely buff. And they really really just do kind of "sit" there and do nothing.
Devs decided that by messing with the AI, they will hope to make the allies less useful to farmers. . .
However, all they, in reality, did, is make it harder to get the allies to actually DO STUFF. Ive had allies in my mishs, with only the emp CM, just to help with the mez heavy enemies. No primary attacks, and I got 30 of them together, and time tested it. Over a period of 6 hours, I received no CM's. I had them set correctly.
I have since figured it out, but posting it on the boards will most likely result in a nerf as well as the devs making all AE mobs worth "1" xp.
Its odd when realism and pessimism(lolsp) collide.
the ally AI is horribly buggy in AE, from what i noticed with pain doms is they will use th single target heal and world of pain only affects themselves, they wont use any other powers. the emps wll only use single target heal, cm, and fortitude, and VERY rarely RA (i think RA is used based on their current hp).
the allies will heal and stuff as long as you have them on aggressive with few primary powers and less allies, more han 3 allies and they will only start buffing each other occaisonally hitting you with a buff
theres bugs with nearly every debuff/buff in AE for allies
