I've been wondering do Summoners get much use in Coil? I know as a Summoner myself they have tons of uses in general senses but I keep reading plenty of threads with narry a Summoner about. Is it just convention to not use em or just not min-maxing enough for Coil? Just curious is all.
DoT/Pet classes are just never popular in general, regardless of performance. SMN do very well in coil on all turns.
From what I've been hearing Summoners are actually the highest dps in coil
They can have issues in Turn 2 against ADS because pets can't dodge AoEs so depending on which baby balls you killed the egi will eat unavoidable damage. They can't be Rotted or specifically targeted by the laser though so there's advantages too. In general though they do very well.
Summoner do fine in Coil, our BLM goes SMN sometimes and actually prefer to do that too.
For Turn 1 SMN can dot both CAD
Turn 2 and 3 nothing special though, since it's all single target fight
Turn 4 our SMN dot both soldiers and Knight so we can kill them faster, Titan-egi is use to tank the last rook just to makes things easier for our OT.
