Pets should never be able to target enemy pets.

Basically, title. It's ridiculous that pets, especially pets that you can't command (i.e. necro pets) can even target enemy pets if they deal a fraction of the damage to them. Take Animate Blastbones for instance. A very underused ult that has a lot of potential. This ultimate summons 3 blastbones, only you can't tell the blastbones who to target; they pick a target seemingly randomly. These blastbones should absolutely never be able to leap a Bear, Matriarch, Scamp, or Clannfear. You can't command them with the Command Pet keybind, and if they decide to target a pet, they deal massively reduced damage and the ult is essentially wasted.

The arcanist and archer have the same problem. They should not be able to target pets, especially since they can't be commanded. They already deal laughably small amounts of damage in PvP, and against a team with a lot of pets they're even more worthless.

Throw Necro a bone and either let us command the Arcanist/Archer and the Blastbones summoned by Animate, or remove the ability for pets to target other pets.

Bones?

One the plus side, the easiest way to set off a bomb is to kill the sorc pet.

I see what you did there... but the bone you throw to the Necro will disintegrate before it gets there just like the blastbones.

I mean while we're at it just make pets untargetable period. I no more want to hit your blastbones than you want your blastbones to hit my pet.

Remember zoo sorcs? Ugh.

And at the moment it would be a small but meaningful buff to sorcs for their matriarchs to not be killable.

I believe they call that a win win win.
