they should. And as well, they should rename the job name. SMN in this game doesn't feel like a summoner at all.
Ifrit is better damage anyway. Garuda is only useful for extended boss fights and adds that spawn all over the place.
10 potency more "autoattack" which isn't so much if you compare the survavilibity of the pets. (Most bosses does circle aoe at their position) you'd have to either be able to move him from there in time (which proves to be dificult cause of delays on pet commands) or you'd have to ask healer to heal it, but then again, it's really hard to target a pet of somene else. So we end up having to heal our pet ourself, which takes away 1 GCD of ruin/bio/bioII/Miasma/Shadowflare which essentially is a dps loss. Until Ifrit has 150 potency attacks or pets AI automatically makes them avoid AoE circles garuda will always be better.
