^ Oh I have no complaints if I'm playing a melee character, and my pawn is also melee. In this case yes I don't mind Guardian because obviously you want your pawn right there with you in the thick of things.

Problem is for the other 95% of the time when you're not using this particular combo. So yes, Guardian gets a bad rap... because it freaking deserves it. Imagine if Scather was the default inclination (because, you know, the player is fighting, pawn thinks "I gotta fight too"). This would fuck up all the healer types because they'd quit healing to lend a hand, and get their fool selves killed.

You know what would be the BEST way? Not making inclinations change dynamically on the fly - force the player to use elixirs to change them. Badda bing badda boom all inclination issues solved. Just drink whatever inclination type elixir you want, bam, forget about it. Bonus, you get to spam the battle orders so you can request on-the-spot healing/aid, without worrying what it'll do to the freaking inclination.

So yeah, Capcom had a good idea here, but botched the implementation.
