RIP summoner

Oh no, now we won't have new egis to ignore and only use Garuda-Egi.

Who in their right mind still uses Garuda? It's all about Ifrit. D:

[Gralna]

explanation wasn't very clear, and I could be wrong, but what I gathered, they said there won't be anymore new roles (melee/ranged/tank), but they'd be expanding on those roles, and basically giving us new skins and animations for those roles, possibly having carbuncle?

[Iromi]

Naw, they need to be more innovative and figure ways to make them situational and useful. That is why they are developers..and we are not.

[Niqote]

That's fantastic.

Now I just want that hint of the carbuncle model to come to fruition and i'll be /happy all over the place.

This so much. Seems people were ready to have another low pixel model to hate and never use. I could understand the anger if summons were called constantly, but they're not, and the role that another egi would serve could easily be added to Garuda/Ifrit-Egi as later skills. Channeling the power of an actual primal as well with Dreadwyrm Trance and actually contributing to the battle with more than ruin/ruin after applying dots is more than an equal trade off.

LOL I was waiting for a thread like this. RIP [insert any other job] threads inc.
Cause, you know, they totaly already know how they new jobs and skills work.

They don't care about cool effects or mechanics or even overall job strength/balance. To them, no planet-sized egis = summoner is a waste of a job and Yoshida has personally insulted each and every one of them to the very depths of their being.

Speak for yourself. I wanted to fuse with the primals and I got my wish, I just didn't expect us be able to fuse with bahamut xD Can't wait.

To be fair, Summoners have been wanting new egis for like a year now. I can understand why they're not happy.

[Anapingofness]

... yoshi said it all ... no new smns ... RIP

Yeah but there isn't much for them to do in regards to the summons they have now.
Instead, we may be getting the ability to change the way the summons look which I am ok with.
After all, most people wanted a new summon so that it would look different than Garuda, Ifrit, and Titan.

I think this suits the summoner more though. Channeling the power of bahamut is pretty cool and will finally change up the rotation a bit.
