Some AI issues still remain with faerie AI in the FFXIV: Heavensward expansion, and have existed since the 2.0 release of A Realm Reborn.
I think our cute healing companions could use a few QoL updates.
Issues/Proposals:
1) Guard/Steady have no use. Make Steady halt all Embrace casts unless directed (as stated in the tooltip).
2) Ability Queuing doesn't happen at all on faeries, unlike players. Give faeries the same 1-at-a-time queuing - or at least make it so that a button push never causes zero reaction from the pet.
3) Inconsistent "Place" command behavior - Normally Place should interrupt the current faerie action to prioritize movement. However, when inputting multiple Place commands in succession, the faerie can occassionally prioritize Embrace over movement.
