Its sort of at the spot where bug and mechanics meet. For these leves your pet probly should stop attacking when you pacify the enemy(outside of this one style of leve, it will almost never come up again). However, there are other things that can apply a temporary pacify effect and you wouldnt want to stop attacking in those cases. Rawrz was right that if the devs changed the effect to a sleep one for these quests only it would solve the problem, but that does seem like a low priority fix. Luckily if your primary goal is to be a white mage then you dont have to spend too much time with carbunkle. Only 15 levels now to unlock the class, and probly a second run later on to finish cross-class skills(dont forget thaumaturge when you get to this step!). And as long as your conjuror level is higher, youll get the armory exp buff to make it faster.

Heh, wait till you cast blizzard 2 on trash mobs and see Carby stop attacking anything and everything you're trying to kill. Silly squirrel!

You can hit Heel anytime you want carby to stop attacking. The macro provided earlier, will cancel the attack, and put him back on guard so he will automatically start attacking anything that is attacking you or him.

He's probably gone, but just for the hell of it and so other people that come across this know what's going on, I'm gonna leave my post here:

For the record, pets DO stop attacking when you soothe a leve target like this because combat ends at that moment. The specific problem here is that soothing doesn't remove DoTs, which Arcanists always use, so you get back into combat with the monster, so your pet goes back to attack it unless you command otherwise. It is annoying, but you could just not use a pet for these leves. It's not that big of a deal.

If this is too much of an annoyance for someone, then I'm not sure what to tell them. Every single MMO will have SOMETHING quirky like this, and I don't know what MMO doesn't. FFXIV has been by far the least buggiest MMORPG I've ever played.
