No new SMNs for SMN?

[LordHadi]

only dragoons get buff every patch. SE needs to give other jobs some love.

Talking about buffs, DRG had the least buffs.. why not get more?

It's not about pet quantity as much as it is about pet quality.

whatever it is you are seeking will not be solved by more pets, maybe after they fix the current ones which btw they mentioned. They know more pets won't add value to the current summoner design hence why are they shifting summoner's style to fuse with primals instead. I think once they buff summoner more enough our pets will lean towards being support functions and buffers with a little more dps, this approach will be very hard to plan if they add 3 more pets for a total of 6 because then they will have to fix all 6 of them and adjust all of them.

Did you read the part about fixing the current ones and the part where it says Quality > Quantity? >_>

I know what you're jabbing at, but I can't recall anyone who seriously proposed summoning primals. I say seriously because there's a certain someone (we all know who I mean) who makes rather outlandish proposals that most people ignore for the sake of their sanity.

People were asking a lot for bigger and more "trial looking" egis in the early 2.0, though it faded out rather quickly. Then they kept asking every now and then for the promised FC-primal summoning and primals in the open field, but as far as we know the feature is indefinitely delayed for now

I've read it a billion times and I've also written what you wrote on the other billion summoner threads, what you said in your post is nothing new. Also, I'm emphasizing on the need to accept SE's resolve to fix the current pets and look forward to the new ones after we get the old ones sorted out. Knowing SE, the new pets will pretty much support oriented since there is no need for extra dps pets. Then again this thread.

Who said we are getting pets redone? We are just getting pet glamours.

Well, it looks like you both are voicing the same opinion, so as long as you can agree and he can agree that you're both in agreement, we're good. Agreed?

Omg this guy can read. Take all of my likes.

As for egi changes, unfortunately they decided to not add new egis that would kinda overlapped in skills, so they will keep the current ones and extend pet skills.

You would naturally think that the pet will be getting more attention at this point in order for it to perform better. Also, if you think about it clearly, we have most of the 3.0 series to focus on the current 3 pets. The dev team isn't blind to not notice the current posts on the pet's slow response and terrible interactiveness during battle. So again they are aware of the issues, so naturally it wouldn't be wise to add more pets knowing the current limitations which is what they are doing right now.

That's because they went completely ignored for the near entirety of ffxi.

They deserve their attention now.
