What's the point of you're like the lowers of the 'pure' DPS and collapse even more when you makes a mistake in comparison to other classes?
You do have a point that if a summoner dies, it'll be very difficult to get back on DPS. You get back up, you force to use aetherflow to re-summon your pet so you back to no MP. You pretty much forced to use energy drain to reapply your DoTs, but even then you have to wait another min to aetherflow again to get MP back so you basically have to stop DPS for awhile to get MP back to normal numbers. Something like that have to be re-worked at some point to stay on par w/ other DPS cause the other classes can get back to their DPS numbers pretty quick.
