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

I can honestly say you're wrong. You may not like it, but's it not flawed.

Look at pets.

Every warlock can summon the 4 basic pets. But how many are actually useful? Blizzard has been trying to make all of them "viable". Tying each to a spec. Untying them from specs, giving each a "role". etc. They tried it all.

In the end it's down to "one pet" per specific situations depending on the state of the game. There is really no choice, it's an illusion.

High resummoning cost = can't switch mid combat = trapped with one pet during combat = player picking the best for their situation

You effectively only have one pet.

The cute part is, you don't have "one pet", you have many and they all have to work with the class's abilities. But close integration with class abilities is almost impossible with so many pets. Frost Mages that have only one pet arguably has the best pet integration.

FFXIV replicated the problem down to the last screw ...
