Enkindle and Tri-Disaster: Useless as they come.

[Eloah]

You haven't been paying attention, then. >_>

No one has used Rain of Death outside of free procs since. . .2.1? Whenever WAR got buffed. And many BRDs don't even use Wide Volley to potentially get those procs, because Quick Nock is more reliable. No one has ever seriously used One Ilm Punch unless they just really wanted to see if it works on whatever buff they're looking at (and, no, it doesn't).

Well I started playing in 2.3 so I cannot say what existed prior to the any buffs/debuffs. I know that I do use Rain of Death to renew the status effect on enemies when it is needed. And although I haven't played Monk in a while One Ilm Punch seems okay since the potency is decent, reletively to others, and it works as a form changing move. I just may not of notice any complaints because they either have died down, or people got over them. I mean you have to admit at least these moves can fit into a rotation, Tri-Disaster can't. Enkindle has different issues but doesn't suck as much, maybe as much as the other moves where slight tweeking would be good, but it's still viable as is.

Summoner's main issue is their design and implementation.
-The spells are poorly designed Bio and Miasma should be combined into one spell called Poison and Bio II and Miasma II should be combined into one spell called Poison II leaving 2 single target DoT spells.
-Add Elementalist Spells specializing an AoE Bursts.
-Pet abilities should be mostly built around AoE Bursts with some Single Target Bursts abilities
-Enkindle's cool down should be reduced to 2min and the cd should be tied to the pet.

This fixes the problem of Summoner being mediocre in every area of DPS while the Black Mage remains the Single Target Bursts with above average AoE Burst abilities.

I'm not sure if I agree with the whole bio and miasma merger, but I am all for another DoT. Not sure if a summoner will ever get poison since bio and poison are sometimes interchangeable. We may see poison on another job though; dare I say Red Mage, lol.

I do agree that an Elemental DoT would be good, maybe have the elemental property be based on which summon is out, ifrit/fire, titan/earth, etc. And we need another AoE DoT but one that can be cast far away, or make Bane able to be used on more enemies.

While I am not sure about tying the CD for Enkindle to each pet, I agree the CD needs to be lowered. But I wouldn't be opposed to the tied CD if they made each pet more viable, and not "situational". Maybe I wanna use titan in a dungeon, or ifrit, and not be bitched at for not using garuda, though I dont hear many people complaining now-a-days, thank god.
