Yep ... u used them before like a Hunter (Archer + pet) Mage but they are just useless no damage no life.. wasting place in my skillbar so..

here is the problem.

when you press Y then left click the target, you are also initiating a light attack at the target and therefore aggro it.

it should be target and press Y for pet to attack (w/o clicking left mice), and press Y and right click to call back.

I maped one of my 4/5 mouse buttons as Y so now I press mouse 5+left click pet attacks without my light attack...

Tab target first and you won't aggro when you trigger your pets.

I played around with it for a bit. It seems to work fine with two pets out although I wish you had a way to tell each pet to target their own monster.

if i tab targeting a monster, then press Y, but don't I still have to left click it? if so, that would aggro it?

No, you don't attack when you press the left mouse button while pressing the pet attack key (Y by default, check if you have remapped it to another function). Y is just the control key, you still have to issue the command with left or right button.

I would prefer the option of a small pet bar.

I am convinced the stealth thing is not working because I found the same sorc stealthed (in the same location no less, lol) twice due to his pets just standing there beside him, unstealthed and derping.

Good to know.

There needs to be two things in place before you can command your pet to attack. You need line of sight to the target, which means nothing between you and the target, not just that you can see it. And the pet needs a clear path to get to the target. They won't go around things like the Shield Charge skill makes the PC do. Even standing behind the pet can mess this up. So, move to the side, make sure the pet can go straight to the target, then use Y and the Left Click.

Note, the pet will navigate some obstacles, but not very often.
