    Here's been my experience, which has been limited to pug groups.

    Beginning of fight, I make sure not to trigger any slimes and it's a fairly easy affair.

    Then the split happens, and I often find myself having to move out of the tank's way while they position the two snakes.

    Often, it's one tank at one end, and another tank at the other end, and I'll place eos beside the tank assigned to me.

    I place for a few reasons:

    1) Been told Eos heals much better when placed

    2) Keeps me away from the boss and the chance of getting attacked by the boss. I fear that my pet though is still too close, taking aoe damage, and getting killed for that reason.

    1) Only relevant if you're not manually healing with your pet, which you should be 24/7 and when I say 24/7 I mean you should literally be mashing that Embrace key through the entire fight.

    2) You don't have to stand any where near the boss.

    There is no reason to place your pet outside fights with extreme movement.

    This isnt a regular fight, he is asking BC turn 1 final, where healer usually been targeted by acid split. That attack does 1/3-1/4 HP damage to pet on impact. Which have potential to kill pet because BOSS does it often.
