    Granted, but they're not really ones that, personally, I'd expect to be using in the middle of combat. Admittedly I'm not involved in anything intensely end-game, some of it might have their uses that players would need to juggle. But in the context of a new player just looking for a simple class to get by with, controlling just the three skills is more than enough, if they have pets on Obey at all. Sic may not be ideal, but it won't keep players from progressing. We're not exactly looking at an end-game perfect rotation or anything here, OP sounds pretty casual. Not necessary to consider everything in a job's arsenal, just enough to be somewhat competent.

    At least that's how I approached the thread.

    Some of them I don't either, but Sic or Obey are the commands that tell your pet which mob to attack, so even from the earliest leveling content I'd use those pretty frequently in combat, every time I want my pet to move to another target. That comes up as fast as mobs die or other adds show up. I'm not particularly well versed in Arcanist or Summoner, so I rarely get in-depth enough to be specifying the pet's specific actions, but at least specifying its target is sort of the first minimal level of pet control.
