Can someone give me an in-depth explanation why Summoner is arguably the worst DPS?

Just hang in there OP -- With all this buzz going like there was with Dragoon a while back, it will just be a few weeks probably until they buff SMN's MP problems and probably give us a job trait that increases DoT potencies.

You make it sound like it's a sure thing. Square isn't even at the point where they have acknowledged Summoner has a problem. How many fan festivals have gone by since Summoner's "problems" have been exposed? Two, and nothing has been said

Just a hunch I guess - When they buffed dragoon, they said it was because they monitored player activity and noticed that the frequency of dragoons being included had been decreasing due to the issues. If it is in fact true that people are either saying no to SMN's in their group, or switching to BLM for ease of use, then I'm pretty confident that Square will step in, as they are quite afraid of a job "dying" IMO.

I could be wrong.

This is what I'm REALLY hoping for, as I continue to spend time working on my Nexus. Please, SE, don't make me regret it lol.
