Summoner in Colonization Reives = Broken

[Camiie]

I really don't want to be mean to you, Malphius, but a WHM complaining about SMN stealing your thunder in one event is really infuriating. It's like a millionaire complaining about homeless people getting free food at the soup kitchen.

You have so many events that you're wanted for. SMN is not nearly as lucky. If you look up niche in the dictionary you'd likely see a one-horned taru standing alongside Carbuncle. You find one event where a SMN can do better than your WHM, and you've got your pantaloons in a wad over it. You have a glimpse of the SMN's world where everyone is better than us for darn near everything.

If you don't like it, try adapting. Come as a job that can score a ton of points, or try playing your WHM in a more effective way. That's what SMNs have done over the years. We main healed or we came different jobs.

You can also ask for improvements to the way your job is handled in Reives. I don't recall SMNs ever asking for others to be nerfed so that they could shine. Why don't you do them the same honor?

Please speak your mind. I would like to hear a rational argument for this not to be fixed which is the only reason i'm still at it. So far people are only speaking out of emotion and personal preference.

WHM isn't my only job. I have several and any of them I could come on but at the moment if this becomes a trend which I believe it will, I would not be coming on any mage job. My persistence in this is because it alienates an entire job class to a high value event. Wildkeeper Reives cost 100k. That's not easy to accumulate.

I also think you are under valuing SMN's worth. Perfect Defense alone makes several of them necessary to some of the best events in the game. Legion and Odin 2.0 being a couple. SMN is also always wanted for Voidwatch so i'm not sure what events SMN is being excluded from.

Why should an entire job class adapt to an unfair advantage of one job in one event? I'm not advocating a SMN nerf. I'm advocating a change in the event dynamics of Colonization Reives. I'm asking that SMN perform normally. Every job in the game performs exactly the same way in Reives as they do every where else in the game with the exception of SMN.

If SMN's want to do themselves an honor then they should rationally explain why they should be given this preferential treatment over everyone else? This has nothing to do with your satisfaction of SMN as a job or as a whole. I know that most SMN are very unhappy with their current state of affairs. However this is not a reason to expect or demand preferential treatment at the expense of others. So far all I see from SMN's is a sense of entitlement.
