my view if something is complex it should kept to point where a player can understand the job better plus hallbreaker hard mode has beastmaster there so it fite and it kind in wilds alittle.

Well the problem wasn't player but rather the developers perceptions of players. SMN and SCH weren't hard to play at all but the pet usefulness in situation was hard because they were designed poorly. From the start Garuda egi was better because of contagion and range attacks kept her out of AoE. Titan was for solo and Ifrit egi just died a lot with no useful skills. They also feared of skill bloating that pets would add but then bloated all jobs skill in 3.0 and make all jobs more complex to play.

With the disaster SE made of SMN I would just prefer BLU.

What if they played like Yuna did in Dissidia? Only minus the fancy summon rings and just have the animal pop up in tandem with the directed weapon attack or in the moment of the attack together with said animal popping up as the attack animation? This way it remove the mobile pet system.

(Or would that fall toward a BLU? Always wanted to learn that fish slap move from the Apkalus/Bloody Mary)
