If my avatar is attacking something else and I need it to attack what is hitting me, I hit retreat. The avatar will automatically go and rescue my rump while I run away. Then I learn not to get aggro like that again, until I forget and get aggro like that again.
The Einherjar example I gave in the other thread is a PERFECT example of why a stay command IS needed. Ignore it if you want. And saying 'the one who slept the mobs can cure themselves' is stupid. Asking a BLM to cure themselves is like asking a WAR to cure themselves. It's not their job. The job of a SMN is to support. If you don't cure people, you are playing SMN wrong.
Einherjar example on what thread? I'm sorry, but I don't go around following you. You should quote yourself for that in this case. Cause I'm not going to go look for it. Also, you are being obtuse. Name me one example as to how a BLM will not have access to cure during an event. Especially one that they have to be on sleeping duty. Then again....why? Why is it not the BLMs job to cure themselves? If they want to survive, they should do so. WAR does not have any ability to give themselves more HP, so they cannot cure themselves. SMN is not a main healer, and at very limited times, they are sub healers. BP:Ws only really. Why should a job be determined by the subjob it brings?
Summoner came out before RotZ. CoP was the only expansion without any new jobs. RotZ added the cloisters.
Thanks for clearing that up.
