What you say def works if all is going well for the most part though.
    That was a bug that was supposed to have been fixed. It should be using embrace anytime there is someone who's lost enough hp for a cure to be useful.

    They aren't going to be making any kind of conditional if-then system, they already said in a recent dev post they don't want to have gambits or macros that can fire other macros or other things that would enable total automation (which is probably why the sic mode simply uses every action withi mpunity whether there is use to it or not (e.g. using garuda contagion when the target has 0 DoTs on it)

    And if it's been fixed I havent seen it. I would even settle for being able to set priorities as to who Eos or Selene heals. Similar to what Altanas mentioned earlier, have the pets move to where priority of the skills are. AOE for heal or attack speed/spell speed buff move to the dps up closer. Increase healing move back to where healers are. Just something that indicates the pet is more than a spamming thing on screen.

    And for all that is good and holy get rid of the Pet Hotbar. So damn annoying.

    Pets are only as mindless as their owners.

    Yes...I understand this. The crux is that I want to be able to determine when/how to use their basic heal and use Embrace as my own without having them blow other CD's. Thanks for implying I'm mindless though.

    No problem. Thanks for implying pets are mindless even though they are controlled by their owners~
