.Pet Sync was intended for use only by a Creature Handler, most likely an abeality reserved souly for being a Master Creature Handler. There are 2 other types of followers, droids andcontrolable NPC's. Droids aren't controlable like this for obviouse reasons and NPC's do not share the same kind of bond a pet would. This abeality is only for CH, but it should only be available so long as the CH has only 1 pet called. Besides, I never said there was anything telekenetic or mystical about this. For all you know, the CH may very well be tapping commands on the ground or blowing whistles that the creature has come to understand to perform more advanced minuivers.
#5 may be thrown out soon with the option to train pets special moves, or it could be a reason to better have it. A Rancor can do allot of things due to it's size and hands, but every pet must have strengths and weakness or everybody will be training heir pets to Stun and Knockdown. I especially want Stun and Knockdown, one or both, to be a weakness on Razorcat, Rancor, Kimigola, and Graul simply because they are the most overused pets as it is.

Pet Synch was created for the purpose of controling a creature since CH have the most available to control. A droid being controled is not too far fetched since the highest droid ANYBODY could control was CL30. With no other followers, the CL30 won't be doing much good, but it would at least offer Non-Combat professions, like a Doctor who may not have any innert combat abealities, to be useful in a fight. The AT-ST is the exception that draws my attention though. I know nothing of weather or not the AT-ST requires any specific class to control, other than being operational only by Emperials. I agree that droids should have this option, so long as they follow the same rules as Synched pets. However, there should besomething required before Droids are controlable like this.
With the new meathod of teaching poets special attacks, there should be requirements a creature must have before they can learn certain attacks. For instance, creatures CL34 or lower would only be able to learn 1 special attack. There should also be limmitations for what kinds of special attacks can be learned by an individual creature. With the lack of skill the DEV's have, I have a hard time immagining this happening.
And as far as being a combatant, almost any profession can outdamage a pet and this abeality would be useless unless combined with a mount. However, those who don't have a combat abeality would benifit from this abeality.
By "creature spamming", I meant the obvious abundance of rancors, kimigolas, etc. I've never experienced problems with commands being spammed, but I've never really been around Creature Handlers either.

I'm not sure what you mean by "creature spamming", but creature commands can be put into a form of "/tellpet ___" that does not cause spatial spamming and reacts faster than a word bubble.

i used /tellpet xxxx <-- nothing hapeend..
use /say xxx attack 3 times nothing too.. why CH so many bugs :/
