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

[Akiza]

Scholar is also attacted to Arcanist and thus the chances of SE reworking Arcanist from the ground up to appease a small group of Summoners is highly unlikely. People really need to keep that in mind when they are suggesting these sorts of radical changes.

Furthermore, the idea of a pet being 90% of a SMN's dps is absurd. Not only Would that be a balance nightmare, it is also going to likely cause groups to avoid Summoners for the simple fact that they have huge chunks of downtime if they or their pet ever die.

SE would just separate the Summoner from the Arcanist to rework it from the ground up as to not affect the Scholar. Summoner would branch off the Evoker with Arcanist as it's secondary class and Thaumaturge as the tertiary class.
-Summoner damage output 70% from the Pet and 30% from DoT and other spells
-Pets should have AoE, Crowd Control and High Bursts as well as Elemental abilities and Ultimate abilities
-The Pet should be Mini-Primals
-Summoner skills should be centered around the buffing, healing and supporting the Pet
-The Summoner support abilities should be like Summon Storms for Garuda, Searing Heat for Ifrit and, Summon Tremors for Titan, Summon Tsunami for Leviathan, Summon Thunderstorm for Ramuh and Summon Blizzard for Shiva
