It's a dot casting job with a ranged AoE bind. It's an Arcanist with Fester. It's a WoW Warlock. It's something that quite a few of us enjoy playing it as it is now. You can't bastardize it into whatever you concoct because you're not happy with it.
How else are you going to separate the two? Each of them would need its own skills. The changes I mentioned were mostly aesthetic. I love summoner. I think the aesthetics are really bland. I'm fine with it being a dot class with a pet. I just want more focus on the pet.
