I say either add back in actual pet mechanics back into it, or delete it entirely and replace it with it being a particle effect that pops up for the shield ability, kind of like how reaper's "pet" (not pet) pops up for some abilities.
Yes, at this point I'd rather they delete the pet and have carby come out for Radiant Aegis and Searing Light as part of their animation like all the other summon attacks. Give ARC Carby as a minion like WHM gets their unicorn.
