This has been my experience, as well.I also found that I really didn't need the Familiar for the content that I run because I was equally able to kill things just as fast without him.

I was too lazy to switch back to the Clannfear, and have been running with the VF for a while now, and find that I rarely bother to activate him; on most content, using his ticks means things die maybe a second or two sooner, at best. And in harder fights, he tends to die anyway.
I can see how - in situations where DPS really matters - the VF has a lot of use. He definitely does do a lot of damage; it's just that the damage is wasted in (seemingly) all but the hardest content.
But he's definitely not a useful tank; he can sorta hold aggro, but it's nowhere near as consistent as the Clannfear.

I still need a tank to solo tough bosses. Probably this is because my playing skills are inferior to yours.

Does anybody have an actual stats comparison among the various Daedric pets?
