A summoners return.

[Romsca]

The moment you end up giving supportive pets to summoners, it's going to create that pigeoning holing to which one is the most effective in a raid environment (much like what we're currently seeing). We have three egis but you only ever use one. Having six egis but only using one isn't any better.

Its sound on text, but an absolute nightmare to implement in a balance in actual practice, especially when you already have scholar's selene for that.

i was just throwing out SS on Ramuh as an example. I said whatever a pet brings, it should 1. match in value what we lose from not having out a dps pet 2. Not push another player's role to extinction and 3. Be equal to using any other pet.

As I said above, a pet that increases the potency of our dots to equal the dmg gained from 5 more ticks given by Garuda, useful in those fights where mobs just don't live for those extra 15 seconds. Or a pet that boosts the groups dps, or boosts the healers heals etc. be creative but restrain any ideas to fit the 3 points I made.
