This statement was a very long time ago. They said this was the artist depiction of how they wanted summoner to look. The community since then has not shut up about it. If you look at the jp forums, they complain about the same things. If enough people complain about it, they'll have to retake it into consideration. The egi designs all look very rushed. They redesigned the entire game and added summoner and scholar at the same time. The visuals clearly show this. Physick has the exact same spell animation as cure. Arcanist and summoner visuals are very bland.
