Ah so that's what it is. I've not really leveled Arcanist yet for White Mage so didn't know what the Emerald and Topaz mean. Will have to watch for that one in future if the Tank is having problems.
But yes sometimes at least in the lower level dungeons i've been doing you get a tank who doesn't really understand what being a tank means. The worst case was one guy who left me to pull aggro by healing him then when the mobs ran to me he saw a chest and decided opening that was more important than stopping me from being overwhelmed. Saw the pet used well in Tam Tara to hold the last boss in the middle which frees up the tank to help clear adds.
