I'm pretty sure summoners will be the most wanted DPS as soon as people realize they are doing 30-50% more than any other DPS, yes including bards. They are insanely good. Ignore the fact that yes, maybe they don't have burst (though they have Fester but that takes 7.5 sec or Bane for AoE), but their single target is off the charts insane. Not to mention they can DPS as well as bards in movement intensive fights with pets PLUS DoTs still doing damage and even Ruin II.
