have you considered having familiars follow isaac in a fixed position, rather than have them drag behind him? like for instance, if they were a fixed to a semi-large orbit around isaac so when isaac shoots, they all shoot in sort of the same area? this would obv exclude familiars like abel, or even chubb junior. i think it would make them a much more viable asset. as they are, it can sometimes be difficult to get them to cooperate, and thus their value is wasted.
