Tri Bind is the mandatory bind skill every caster has actually. Because back in the day Bind actually did something. Pretty useless now though but I think some synced Coils need it.

Sustain on is something I'd want to see back too but it was a dps loss to even use. And you can actually(as annoying as it is to do) just manually move your pets out of any aoe that actually does damage to it. I don't usually see my pet die anyway, the only time I remember consistently was Doma Castle. If it does return it needs to be an oGCD.
