PUP - Curing out of Combat

Curing yourself outside of battle is still safe and reliable. Notice that the puppet never engages the enemy, even though it is in melee range.

In the event of auto aggro'n the mob instead of curing you, simply deactivate it to shed enmity.

[NateypooShiva]

Just make sure the auto doesn't strike the mob. Flashbulb or casting a spell will not put the master on the hate list, but a melee attack from the puppet will claim it.

You don't need light maneuvers with the harlequin head, but you would with full stormwaker.

I should have mentioned to be careful with using this if you have flashbulb equipped. The puppet will prioritize flashing the enemy before it cures you, which will cause it to aggro the enemy.

pup/war :) double attack, defender or berserk and provoke are great abilities that help in parties as well as in solo play ^^

[zennytri]

which is better pup/mnk or pup/war

Ah! I see i'm not the only one that realized this. =)

Also take care because based on which elemental maneuvers you have up: your Automaton might cast Dia or Bio, aggroing the mob.

Nice little trick might try that out next time I go out soloing.
