Sustain on SMN

[SilverRhyme]

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

I don't think it'd be a good idea....
Imagine an 8 man party with 4 summoners and 2 scholars.

OMG the insanity.

I can't target pets, that's turned off, only thing they get is a medica 2 and as stated, jobs with pets, its their job to look after them not anyone else's.

This is the reason why i would like a boost to sustain, because i should be the one looking after MY pet, not anyone else.

It's a healer's responsibility to make sure DPS have enough HP to do their damage (which includes pets). It's the DPS's job to make sure they have all their tools to do their job (which includes pets).

The only role you can argue it's not their responsibility are the tanks.

I've seen plenty of bad tanks lose aggro to egis.

I've seen plenty of bad tanks lose aggro to egis.

If the tank is doing that, there are far greater issues than an egi dying.

Don't know how your pets are dying unless your white mage just isn't using medica 2 at all.

I would very much rather have sustain buffed up than rely on a healer to heal my pet. Maybe others disagree but I personally find it our responsibility to take care of our pets, but yea sustain is crap. Please give us something useful!

[Sanguisio]

They shouldnt have nerfed sustain.

When healing I and I see ifrit I will usually regen him or throw a few embraces as needed but no reason for garuda to get healed.

AOE heals hit pets afaik and to people saying dont heal pet its not our responsibility,....yeah it isnt but I'd rather the smn had SC for other things as oppose to resummoning a pet that couldve been saved.

Or, Big OR here, healers get good.

Sorry but no, your own pet is your responsibility.
I already have enough issues with crazy people running into everything i don't need to focus on an hp bar above your pet as well (which is toggled off on my screen btw, hate clutter)
