What ever you feel the other pet jobs are designed to do isn't the issue. My point - which you just ceded - is that the other pets do not come close to competing with the enmity generation of the Beast Master pets.
This is what I mean... why are you trying to make that point??? First off, Puppets can tank quite well. Here's a guide to help you understand how that works: http://www.ffxiah.com/forum/topic/47...a-tank-on-pup/. Second, why would DRG or SMN want to pull more emnity? SMN pets die and get recast multiple times in a fight. Why should they care if the pet does anything hate wise beyond creating the minimal amount of emnity required to keep the master from getting attacked? And DRG pets... come on. At least try to be serious.

I'm still lost. Pup can tank fine (See the above link). So I didn't support your point on that one. Summoner doesn't need to tank because pets are expendable. So I didn't support your point on that one (Unless your point was that spending money on Mulsums, thetas and jugs is easier than casting a spell). And dragoons aren't a real pet job so you can stop bringing them up. They are about as relevant to this conversation as BST is to party curing.
