Also with the level variance for summoning not every pet will be able to taunt that same mob. Additionally the higher the level of the NPC, the less likely the earth pet's root will land.
The earth pet can root Ulump. Also I know that about taunt but as mentioned I’ve put four earth pets into an ice burrower and it jumped on the pet almost immediately each time. Hence the “all aggro transfers to the PC” is BS.

The toughest thing Ive killed with my mage is just an exp mob (prob a dozen times) but level 50. Even racing to kill with spells the earth kept it pretty locked down:

Killing stuff above level 48 is tricky? Further evidence the mage is a melee.
Math checks out
