This is my current beef with the implementation of pets. Since the removed all the situational skills from pets and replaced them with "slightly more powerful than their underwhelming basic attack + crucial dps gain/recovery on a basic filler gcd" attacks you're just smashing because that's what you have to do now. Its busywork on an already busy class. Sure it's more involved but you're playing harder not smarter. Getting 4 stacks of ruin 4 will never feel as good as getting off a radiant shield during a period of rapid damage during a trick attack window.

I like egis, I like ordering them, but I much prefer to interact with them on a conscious level instead of them just being fodder for spells that make the cooldowns go on cooldown.
