We should already know some of the moves that these avatars will have (presuming they have actual BPs and aren't 2h only). Diabolos Prime from PM3-5 used all the moves that the actual avatar got later on. Since we've fought both the new avatars in WotG, this means:

Atomos
Soul Vacuum - AoE All Status Down
Soul Infusion - Passes debuffed stats from Vacuum to the summoner

Cait Sith
Regal Scratch - Single target damage (suspected low level BP move)
Divine Favor - Full erase and -na
Mewing Lullaby - AoE Sleep and TP reset (to 0)
Eerie Eye - Gaze amnesia and silence
Level ? Holy - Random dice roll (1~6) damage (possible 2hr move?)

This would mean Atomos has really little in terms of moves but could advocate the 'melee smn' playstyle which has persisted. Assuming Cait Sith has the normal number of BP moves (roughly 8 + 2hr) this means there will be 4 more BPs which we don't know about.

Unless, however, you kept healing it. Which, by the sounds of it, you were doing.

Never healed it, but of course we were two SMNs so the other one could have screwed up any amount of times and everyone else would still have only read "Garuda healed Glavoid for X HP".

So one could understand them, but at the same time it sucks that they think I don't know how to play my job even when I tell them not to worry because I know what I'm doing.

Besides, it also sounds like you were there just to hold a pop set. I mean, why else would they bring a SMN to Glavoid in the first place?

To the first part, I did have a pop set, so it could be that way. To the latter part, a Summoner who knows how to play the job is an excellent addition to Glavoid. (Or at least better than DNC or SCH which are my other jobs)

Next update lol

i just meant like... atomos has always been an avatar, but nowhere in WotG is cait sith even hinted at being an avatar. going by the WotG plot i thought the cait siths were their own species.

I got the impression they were a god entity, but not the type to appear from summoning circles. Kind of like Bahamut.

Cait Sith was introduced in the cutscenes having a disembodied metallic voice, before having a name, so I assumed they were a form of automaton. (They were even numbered)

Bahamut is a terrestrial avatar just like Carbuncle and Fenrir, and they both have summoning circle. We don't see Bahamut's circle because he doesn't need to summon an avatar of himself like the others (which is also why SE keeps saying he's too powerful and mighty to let us have it), he's the real deal.
I don't really know about Atomos and Cait Sith, I'm not that far into WotG to even take a guess. Maybe they could be a new kind of Avatars?

[Arciel]

the Cait Sith are born from Altana's tears.. they're divine, to say the least...

Hey all! Got a bit of information from the development team about the new avatars that are incoming in a future version update.

While we don't have too many specifics to share because things are still in the planning stages, the current plan is to make Cait Sith an avatar similar to the likes of Carbuncle, where you can go into battle with Cait Sith at your side. Atomos on the other hand would be similar to Odin and Alexander in that he is used solely for his 2 hour ability.
