how smn now, compare with others caster...???

It’s my second favorite!







it’s just that good

can someone give an end game rotation of smn atm?

uhm... after 4.0 Eirene released a rota with 8 phases - that rota alone was around 2-3 DinA4 pages printed maybe I find the jpgs i made of them... ; )

edit: there you go:

it might be that several steps changed due to the insta cast buffs but the base should still be following this cycles ^^

nice, gonna try it out once i'm hit 70 with my smn

and again, which role skill i should bring with me in current patch?

lucid dreams (aggro reduce since we got buffed in burst pretty hard), swiftcast (for ruin lll and res), addle (for bahamut although its weirdo that a utility skills procs his autoatk...) should be considered - the others should be situational like the anti-pushback skill for o4s f.e. ^^

oh and IIRC dev promis us about new egi glamor back then before they released a newsletter about 4.0, did they do it yet?

no words on egi glam after they released the carbis tho... I think they had handfull on balancing/smn job design after 4.0... death penalty caused a hughe debate about the cls design as worse as the current Blm threads unfortunately the glam lost priority and felt way behind although its promised yeah q.q

I bring the same as Neela's post. I also tend to keep Mana Shift on my bar most of the time. I run mostly DF and some PF dungeons and raids and have noticed the non-Scholar healers tend to use more MP for some reason. Since Summoner MP management is good at the moment I shoot the healers MP whenever Mana Shift is up and the healer has room on their MP bar. I will also use it to help out healer or other caster MP recovery after they have been raised.

So, now ifrit have a bit more ultility than garuda because of his AOE shield, right, and garuda only good if you are pair with other caster in your party?
