Thanks on the support everyone.
I'm sad to hear pets don't hold debuffs, I was suspecting it but never did try it out. And yes I have read your guide Bioness and I couldn't have put it better myself. At the moment I'm trying to get better tanking gear (around 320 def atm) so I can tank some higher dungeons, not just ulda, zf and mara.
Also guys I'm not Greek, mortadela is the same salami all around the globe, believe it or not.
