There's a couple things I find really annoying with the AI/mechanics of scholar/summoner pets. Basically I really wish there was just a way I could have my pet on my summoner set to "attack when I attack", not "attack when I'm attacked or attack". I swear that damn thing will randomly attack some random mob that attacks me just when im running to complete quests. So I tried setting him manually to stay on guard and not move, but then he still sometimes goes missing when I mount up and go a decent distance.
Other thing is, the pets GCD is different than the characters, and yet you can't cast spells on your pet unless YOUR gcd is up. So if my pet is able to cast a spell and I'm in the middle of a cast, I can't press one of my pet skills since it will be greyed out. This is mostly annoying on scholar, as your fairere is pretty retarded when it comes to healing and its much better to just use him manually.
Anyone else find these things annoying or is it just me?
