I think Summoners are fine.

Yet another learn to play issue or take that ignorance off and read the other posts. Summoners are the highest DPS class by at least 20-30% margin.

Do you research. Practice and master it.

People who claim summoners are weak DPS are what gave summoners a bad name in the first place.

I would like to point out that damage parsing for dots is currently broken. if you add up rotational potency for the dps classes, summoners are a bit gimp. this is coming from a lancer who looks at parsers a lot.

You need to realize you have Fester - 300 Potency

You have a pet that is doing 150-200 damage (around 100 Potency attacks from Garuda I believe)

And you can cast Ruin all the while your DoTs and Pets do damage.

Your damage adds up tremendously over the course of a fight.
