Accuracy of pets

I've seen many sources for the accuracy requirements for the Coils of Bahamut, and they're extremely important because missing attacks is crippling - at best it's damage/time lost, at worst you're a tank that can't get aggro.

I play a Summoner, and many guides list pets as falling into the "Flank" category for accuracy, but others just list "Flank + Garuda" - I've also noticed that many (90% or more) Summoners act like Garuda is the only pet that exists.

I prefer Ifrit personally. Contagion ability is useful, but Ifrit's auto-attacks in addition to weaponskills boost my dps by a good 20-25% so... yeah, Ifrit for me.

And this has me wondering, which Accuracy cap does Ifrit (and by extension Titan) use? As a melee pet, does it use accuracy caps based on its position like melee dps classes do? Should I learn to be more aware of my pet's positioning (other than the obvious "not in front of it")? Could I get away with fewer points invested in Accuracy if I position Ifrit behind the target?

Basically, any Ifrit-specific information regarding use in Coils would be handy :D Garuda is not the only pet!
