Ooooh, wait, Hunters get the ability to speak to their companion, and the empathetic link of the familiar, AND the ability to see through the animal companion's eyes! So for Hunters who pick hawks or small cats or whatever, yeah their skills falling behind the familiar's suck a little. Except you get flexible all day buffs from Hunter's focus that I imagine should more than make up for it.

So it seems like the answer to having a scouting pet is "be a hunter" or "get a familiar." :)

Or be a summoner. Eidolons can be skill monkeys.

Yeah, that occured to me. But I didn't think an extra planar ally would quite meet the flavor they wanted.

QuidEst: that's good to know!
