Happy SMN Thread!

As for positioning. snip

The main thing you need to make sure you are doing is USING OBEY when needed.snip

Okay, so OBEY is better in dungeons than using Sic? I only have Ifrit right now so I have to practice more of pet techniques later on. Thanks!

Snip Obey Vs Sic

There is really no reason to ever use Sic. If you just start attacking a monster with the Pet not in the Steady stance, it will immediately sic the mob you are attacking. Obey makes it so that the Egi will not use any attack/move other than the basic Auto Attack. Thus when us use Obey the pet will not use their AoE attack and wake up all the sleeping mobs.

I see, thanks! Will put this into practice. And oh, should SMNs invest on their gears when they hit lvl50, and stick to quest gears until then?
