[Pole] Do you want to see the summoner class reworked?

[verislie]

Here\\'s a few ideas
Replace ifrit\\'s stun with a slash resistance debuff or critical chance proc (something to really make ifrit a melee\\'s best friend or something good for some burn downs) and replace the counterattack with a gap closer.
I like the ideas of specifying egi rolls.
Ifrit melee burn damage phases
Titan the tank
Garuda the caster with aoes (maybe slap contagion onto ACN or SMN)
Levi would maybe be an anti mage and silence things with ranged water and deal melee attacks?
Ramuh: god of dot
Shiva: kite\\'s best bud with heavy infliction and maybe blind?

Back to other things, maybe press summon into a single ability allowing caster to bring up class/job specific lists for their available summons. Thus allowing room to really differentiate summoner from arcanist now that 3 skills are now open, possibly a stance type to transfer stats of your character over to your pet, another one to bring out the inherent traits each primal contains as a buff to either party or to egi and SMN.
And I just ran a blank

The Summoner needs to focus on Summoning and Pet aspects instead of Dot management since most of the Summoner's power is used in Summoning.

Making a Hyur sized Primals is a reasonable request.

If you ask me I wouldn't want to see a human sized potato, lol. Quality over quantity if you ask me, if the design is amazing then I'm sure everyone would be ok with the current size.

Hi I just want to say i love the summoner Job, but there is just something i would love added.

EVOLUTION!

After playing Summoner, I really wish they could grow in strength & size to look more Menacing. This should be achieved through the Summoner quest line when the cap is raised by stealing more power from the Primals. Maybe fighting the hard modes to obtain the stolen power then fighting the evolved egi again to remind it who's the boss would be ideal.

STAT ALLOCATION!

I wish each Egi had points as well to allocate to stats. I find myself wishing i can give Ifrit more Strength, or even give Titan more Defense.



So yeah i love Summoner, and this thread is to give some ideas to the devs..

Please leave your ideas.

What would you change or add? how are you enjoying it so far?

EDIT.

Here is what i Think is ideal for the Egi. Its not big at all, and if implemented i think there should be a toggle to display Egi in sanctuaries ON/OFF.

You will find most summoners will agree to the fact that egi don't look close to any other final fantasy avatar pets. And asking for something small such as the design won't hurt the dps.

You, or rather the person who made the original post, (which was almost 12 months ago and seemingly don't play anymore) want the following:

- Model changes
- Larger models
- Retcon on an entire job quest line
- Reworking an entire job from the bottom up

If months of labor and testing and potentially pissing off the majority who do enjoy SMN as-is sounds small to you, you need a reality check, quick.

As for the summons looking different than their past iterations, I agree with that. In fact 3, is different from 4, different from 5, different from 6 and so on. How dare SE change SMN to something practical and not worthless in end game!
