It’s basically a glorified dot and it scales down pretty hard the higher the level of the monster you’re fighting. It’s a nice addition to be sure, but please don’t even pretend it’s some amazing source of abundant dps.
I am no stranger to pet classes, pet dps capabilities per class and pet type. Check my sig below. I have 3 level 60 classes who can summon pets.

I'm not saying it's some insane source of dps, but you're sitting here saying it's a wash when trying to argue that pally is a better grouping class. It's not a wash, and you're spreading false information.
99.99% of groups do not regularly need any of the pally stuff, like lulls, roots, etc. An occasional heal/rez here and there can come in handy, but if a pally is honestly healing that much, something is really off with the group. 100% of groups just want to kill shit as fast as possible. And with a SK you will kill stuff faster making them a better grouping class in addition to being a better overall solo class. I have a pally, they get a cool spell set, but their only real advantage is in the raid scene.
