Scholar pets, can we have a few more commands please?

[Pheebs]

I have player scholar since beta and love the class but I find the pet interface is a little random. Could Scholars have a separate command GUI that is different from Summoner please?

Firstly sic on a healer pet makes little sense as they cant attack anyone. Due to some randomness when using steady and obey whispering dawn is still automatically activated. It would be great if only embrace were auto cast on the pet as it gets annoying when whispering dawn is randomly activated as it piggybacks the last 2 skills. I believe this issue goes back to the illogical healer pet interface.

Also (due to mouse over macro being so unreliable in dungeons presently) it would be brilliant if Scholars could set healing priority for their pets that weren't based upon who the Scholar is targeting at the time. As they have 2 healers sho0uldn't the have potential to heal 2 players at the same time?

Thoughts?

I am happy if:

Eos doesn't break out of steady after manually using embrace and if Obey could be used on a target to have her AI set to heal said target before it drops to 70%.

Don't think I need anything more than that.

Randomly casting wd and breaking steady is all that needs to be fixed imo.

WOW has an amazingly intuitive pet system, I feel like their 'Hunter' class (and Warlock) gets pets right.
FFXIV pets just seem clunky and poorly designed from my experience.

I miss being able to turn certain ability off autocast like I could in WoW. This would be a great option to allow more control.

Random question but, why most ppl always want to compare / adopt FFXIV to X game?

I'm fully aware that the pet system here kinda sucks but comparing it to other games or want it to adopt a feature from it makes me wonder, why are you even playing here? I mean why not just play X game instead?

That doesn't really make any sense. Because someone might like one particular feature another game has they should entirely abandon this game for the other? I just really don't understand the point of your comment here.

Nope, it's not only "one" feature, most thread I've seen here always want FFXIV to adopt features from either GW2 or WoW.

I'd rather have a "brand" new feature (which is exactly my point) than a rip-off, if you get what I mean.

Logic like this is why 1.0 didn't have basic necessities like a mailbox.

Nope, it's a no-brainer that any new MMOs should have a mailbox there's nothing to adopt / compare there. Your "logic" is invalid.
