I recently got my tank choco to rank 4 and got the 2nd tank ability. I hoped with two abilities to use he would actually use one in the first 10 seconds of a fight. WRONG!


I tested it out on my BLM by pulling a mob with thunder and then one scathe. I didn't cast another ability. I just waited to see how long it would take him to pull aggro. It took him 15 seconds.









15 seconds





















15 seconds for a rank 4 defender stance chocobo to generate the same emnity as one thunder and one non-crit scathe. It's mindboggling how bad he is. Can you at least make him OPEN with a provoke type move? Or maybe just one of the tank moves that he already has... I've never seen him use a move until 6+ seconds into a fight. I could probably deal with this if I could send him to attack the next mob early but I have no control over him.
