When is summoner getting ramuh/shiva/levi?

[Evangela]

don't really care. this job became a joke long time ago and SE shows no intention to revamp it so I stop playing it as well.

[Hexy]

I really hope we don't get either of the three, I just want Carbuncle.

I was thinking the same thing! I just want my Carby back

SMN is ruined since the beginning anyway.

that pun... I don't know if it's good or bad

Smn isn't smn. Its a warlock with less powerful pets and spells.

I'd rather a Bismark Egi if we do get one. As to the role of the Egi, please let it be something useful as a dps i.e. no heals. I'd hate for a skill to be completely wasted on an Egi with completely limited use again.

I would love for both summoner and blackmage to be reworked. I'm fine with melee being a spam fest. We are supposed to be up close and personal so I think all the button pressing makes for a more chaotic feeling. I've always viewed casters as more elegant and deliberate. They aren't constantly casting spells, but rather spending more time per spell and having some downtime between casts. A blackmage should cast Thunder over the span of a 3-4 seconds and then not cast another nuke for about 5-10 seconds after that. Summoner should spend 5 seconds summoning an avatar, have it out for around 5-10 seconds and then not be able to summon another one for 15-20 seconds.

That is just my ideal for casters and I know it wouldn't fit into the game very well.

I'd also be happy with an Alexander tank egi. If he looked cool.

But yes, I agree there are some things wrong with it. But I still have fun with it

I think smn looks great and in glad egis look lovely. BUT Egis need to be rebalance because I'm bored of using garuda. They should make ifrit and titan stronger too

SMN are fine as they are, only tweak they really need is some way to keep their mp up in really long high end fights. Also in a recent Famitsu interview, Yoshi said spell speed will be reworked in 3.0 and that it will affect dots.

As far as new egi roles, there is still room for quite a few, leviathan could be physical ranged dps (think his tail barbs), ramuh could be focused around ranged aoe, not sure about shiva, maybe she can get stances for different weapons, that changes her auto attacks and other skills?

[Valoiz]

ANother SMN haters post? ¬¬

SMN are fine, mp its a bit more affortable after the last changes.

For me: Levi should be a ranger physical DPS (like tail atacks) with Fear (like his adds) and the water pool skill (like his adds- shadow flare)
Ramuh magical dps with some thunder DOT u can also spread with bane and may charm (like the une u get from chaos)

I am hoping for more skills to buff my pets (no more skills for the SMN imself) and may some "Tranfer pain skill" (tranfer x % of ur dmg to the egi)

I cant see SHiva or King Mog as egis
