Personally I don't like pullers that can't sleep mobs. I hate to need to use the attention of 2 players to do the pulling of 1.
Two things on this statement.
1. Pulling is an excellent way to cap out your evasion skill after updates. Quite frequently I was in Aby-Tahrongi pulling Mandies up to 4-5 at a time and purposefully Aeolian Edging them all to come to me while the rest of the group focused on one or two at a time. Granted, the entire purpose was evasion skill-ups and there are plenty of other methods of doing so, this worked best for me.
2. Outside of BRD, no other job can effectively pull and sleep multiple mobs at once (or at least not without a significant degree of risk). BLM or SCH in particular, because all it takes is a poorly timed interrupt and now all 3ish mobs are attacking you and constantly interrupting. I find that THF, DNC, PLD, and/or NIN are among the best pullers for multiple mobs unless you have a dedicated sleeper (then any job will suffice).
Yes, we can be doing something else better, but talking specifically pulling jobs those four are the most efficient in loo of a sleeper. PLD probably more-so than others because they fail at anything else.
