A more summonery Summoner

[Svalitz]

I'm so tired of threads like these.

So so tired.

But not because of what the OP is saying. In fact it's the opposite.

I'm tired of our community making excuses for the poor design of Summoner in this game. And shutting down anyone who even suggests that it should be revamped and that Summoner should be... well... a SUMMONER. THE REASON SE ISN'T CHANGING THIS JOB IS BECAUSE EVERYONE KEEPS DEFENDING THE CURRENT DESIGNS. I played Summoner for 10+ years in XI, but I refuse to touch it in this game because it's a watered down version of what a Summoner should be.

The Egi's are crap. Summoner looks like crap. Now they aren't even adding new Egi's!? The Lore can be changed to make sense of mid-sized primal-looking pets. Oh, you don't like seeing PROPERLY SIZED summon pets in battle? Turn them off.

nuff said.

/endrant.


Edit: Apparently there's a limit to # of posts per day, so Asierid I will have to respond to your reply (which once again is full of the typical "Go play XI then" attitude...ugh) later, but for now I will leave you this. XIV's is the ONLY summoner job that is "different", and it's different in a negative way. That is my point.
