Uh gonna cut to the point here, sustain is crap, it needs a boost, its really bad on ifrit-egi, since he likes every aoe and likes to be poisoned alot in melee range.
And before anyone says, no many don't want to use garuda, i prefer ifrits shield/stun.
Currently, the sustain gives us 3 ticks sometimes 4, clearly not enough to keep ifrit/titan up.
So yeah, needs a buff, id say 10% of summon's HP for 20 seconds.
Make it an OGCD toggle that drains MP.
Fixt.
Or, Big OR here, healers get good.
Medica 2 takes too much skill bro
If its not on my party list it doesn't get healed. Unless I literally have nothing better to do.
It's the SMNers job to look after their pet, give them the ability to do so.
I'd rather make Sustain a tick longer and then make Physic worth a damn at 60.
Summoners have better things to do than get deadlocked into spamming sustain, physic, summons on their pets constantly. Especially from unavoidable damage and damage the no pet can be trusted to evade (yes even Garuda is not safe just like any spellcaster who refuses to move).
On top of that you can see their HP bar by default simply by looking at them, unless you turned that off for some awful reason. >:|
Damage Dealers' job is to deal damage, NOT healing. Responsibilities change while solo.
Healers' job is to heal the entire party. Pets are a significant power to pet jobs, without them, they aren't good. Very simple to understand. Having to toss a pet a regen is nothing to get all pissy about. I easily do it on a whim cause it's THAT easy, most of the time by AoE healing. SMNs don't have to worry about pets dying, no sustain=happy SMN melting peoples faces with their pet in glee. I don't care if MCHs can bring their turrets back on whim, they're getting healed too. I'll even do it for SCH's pets even if he's my co healer, because if the fairy is hurt, then she will use embrace on herself, which is a terrible, TERRIBLE thing to let happen. None of this needs to be spelled out. But of course loads of healers just snooze about and be obsessed with DPS in this game.
I will say that I play a SCH and know exactly what you guys mean. I also play with a controller. I've tried healing a pet before, but 9 times out of 10 my target indicator will not highlight a SMN pet and after like 5 tries I give up and start worrying about the players more.

SE should (or not?) put the pets on the healer's party HUD.
