SMN adjustments....seriously?

^ im sure you and one other guy will be pleased.

but seriously...where is the real SMn update?

Same as above

i have 5/5 elemental mp cost

why? pretty much to be able to have light ele out for buffs/cures

From the census last year, http://www.playonline.com/ff11us/gui...nsus/10/3.html, you can see how many people merit Elemental MP cost. I'm not one of them, and this adjustment will not make me change my merits. With all the other things that could be done to better SMN, this isn't one of them.

If you really believe SE will update the cost without updating the power of these pets then I have news for you...

You are probably right.

The MP cost isn't why spirits are terrible. it's everything about them combined. low HP, terrible stats, no control over them, casts spells you dont want them to cast,

About the only thing making spirits cheaper does is increase the net MP return on siphon slightly.

I'm thinking a pet: MAB staff would disagree.

As previously stated 3-4% of Summoners actually use this option according to the last census.

So what, basically one Summoner per server will get a use out of this?

pretty much, the lack of control being the major throw away here. Its like they want people to use them, but they refuse to fix them.

It's almost funny you having elemental mp cost merits was completely expected.

I was pissed about the Paladin update.

Then I saw the Summoner update.

I'm still pissed about the Paladin update, but I feel a deep sorrow for Summoner's everywhere.

And I'm not a summoner....
