Isn't that a bad thing? I mean, shouldn't the pets be the focus of a pet job? The pets are basically positionable DoTs/turrets, with Contagion breaking up Garuda's pattern of Wind Blades, while Ifrit and Titan just run on autopilot.
I mean, I look at SCH vs SMN and while the SMN's control over their egi is pretty much just pressing Contagion or leaving the non-Garudas on auto, the SCH has far more encouragement to micromanage their fairy's Embraces and buffs. I know that both aren't the same, in terms of function, and I'm not saying SMN needs more utility or to be a DPS/Support like BRD, but I would like the egi to have more of a presence in their gameplay.
