It's generally understood that pet actions cannot be macro'd at this time. Hopefully SE will change this very soon!

Until then you'll want to select the Steady stance and only use Obey to send your pet out, then it will only use the abilities you tell it to. You may have to reset the stance after every battle though :\

So that kinda explained why I have been encountering problem doing this..

I have no issue using Obey and command as it is (in fact, I have been doing this - I like to micromanage my pet), the main issue is I will have to place all of their abilities to the hotbar and that will make it very messy, I'm dealing fine with just having 2 summons at the moment but I can foresee the problem will affect heavily when I will have more summons to use with.

however would be more useful if I could get carbuncle to use sic or an ability to protect ONLY the healer (My theory on it is using Topaz for quick enmity gain for aggro but can't find a macro yet =s) and i am trying to implement a way to make it so carbuncle gets set to Steady or obey at summoning and so far have a macro start ready for once I find the combination to do exactly that!
/ac "Summon II" "Insert YOUR name" (my case "Sardis Sallavantei")
/wait 8

it takes 8 seconds for carbuncle to be targettable from summoning, once figured out ill add the command to make him be in steady or obey!

well all i hope this helps in some way =D
