Can we fix Titan-Egi?

As a SMN main on my main I was broken when I found out about the nerfs and it struck a chord when I saw what happened to Titan-Egi. As others have said, Sustain did NOT need to be removed.

You can see that there is now a Miasma III, but I don't see how that should be III, when Miasma II has been vanished.

ya.. and Miasma IIi (THREE) got the same atk potencial like Miasma I (ONE!) - 40... wich is sooo ridicolous and shamefull... the 30secs duration wont cut it.. I dont want to fight trash mobs over 30secs with a weak Titan-Egi, over and over <-<

Our dear yellow chicken nugget doest not deserve such a treatment. He was only useful in solo fights anyway and now you have taken that away too. I find myself summoning the other egis more and more in solo stuff since Titan cant even hold aggro often and if he dies I am hit anyway..so why even summon him if Garuda or Ifrit will kill the monster faster thus less LP loss for us..

I hope one day that Yoshida and his battle team can give us a good reason of why they took sustain away..I mean we are a pet job and they took two of the three pet skills away, and the one that is still there is kinda useless without sustain since we dont have other good healing skills..and devotion is just bad too..so we are even less of a pet job.

Its kinda sad that you introduced another solo title for the PotD, yet I cant see how a summoner should be even able to do this solo..

I would so love to get Sustain back again too.

Or else give Titan-egi a combat passive HP regen.

Because it's kind pointless to have a tank egi that cannot acts as tank properly.

And to top it all, chocoboes completly ignore egis and never heals them.

Be nice if they also made ruin iv able to be used all the time. Sch got broil II whm stone 4 that they can use all the time. Don't know why they messed with skills so much they was just fine how they where.

Fully support.

It is bizarre that we have a useless heal and a tank pet that can't tank. One or both of those things need to change - so I would lean to SMN physic off of int as the best solution. They have the SCH abilities off of mind so I don't think there is a technical limitation.

Try doing your level 50 SMN quest with Titan-Egi tanking... after 4.0, it's a pain. titan died pretty quick, then I just spammed instant casts and ran around kiting the bastard as I had no tank anymore... the fight took way longer than it should have.

They mentioned the issue in the last Live letter, so hopefully it will come back in some form.

However that specific Q&A made me laugh:

A11. We had it set so that pets would take reduced damage from enemies and we figured it wouldn’t be an issue as long as players don’t place the pets directly in front of the enemy. However, there were some players that used it quite a lot, so we would like to discuss some more with the dev. team.

I would be glad to know how I was supposed to use Titan-Egi without placing it directly in front of the enemy :p

/signed and ten letters as well!

May as well remove titan without sustain to keep it alive and give us another type of dps epi to replace it or give us our sustain back
