i think they messed up with elemental trial stave's so they are trying to lower our mp with abilities. pet jobs are invincible inside abyssea but im a little worried about what will happen to Smn when they get out of aby...

cait sith and atomos dont seem like avatars that can follow you around well, so im guessing more 2hour only stuff. cait sith might be an alternative to carbuncle at least. he does do Holy in WotG mission, but he has more Blm spells.

i'd definitely be fine with a 2hour Bahamut. for Pheonix they already named the samurai from CoP's weapon Pheonix and it's back in the far east. they'd have to add a new area like they did with Whitegate. (could add the male mithra home too). honestly smn playstyle doesnt leave too much room for new ideas, just new spells :P imo
