No, you aren't required to do so. They start on defensive, not passive, so they will still counterattack anything that attacks them or you. Ordering them to go aggressive just makes them attack first. Usually you don't need this featuzre, unless you want them to attack gray enemies. (And even then I'd recommend using the "attack my target" command instead, because that way you can't forget to switch back to defensive, possibly causing an unintentional pull later.)

You do want them on aggressive during the prisoner breakout on BAF though, haha. If you have them on defensive, they'll just let the prisoners go by them without doing anything.

I have some Lore pets that, when I right click, it gives me options like an MM (actually not some, all). Do I have to set to aggressive before they will attack? (If they attack at all, I am aware some don't)
