True. Spiritreaver shouldn't be too spammy. No more fear about wasted cooldowns for Drain/Aspir/Absorb-Int.
Still another thing that they should fix is the max range the pets can be engaged. I think atm it's something like 13/14 yalms?
Asking for them to give us >20' range would be too much, but at least they should allow us to reliably keep them at >15'.
The majority of TP moves are within 15 yalms of range after all, being able to keep them at that range would already be useful enough.

For mage automaton there's a "trick" to keep them at max range (deploy, let him cast spell, then retrieve. He will return to you at whatever range you are and continue its casting), but it's annoying.
For the RNG automaton there is no trick at all if I recall. This is even more important now since we should be allowed, in theory, to reliably use Drum Magazine and keep the pet at distance.

I guess in the end this is a minor issue, after all we're about to get we probably have no right to complain. Actually... I think I'm the only one complaining about this?
