    Can we please at the very least have our Egi the same size as the Egi Kahedin has in the lvl 56 SMN job quest "Mad, Bad, and Ebon-Clad" and add more texture and definition to make them look strong and formidable, not these little jokes of pets we have now? Most SMN fans have been very disappointed with the Egi since the job was introduced and this is something you can do to make our favorite job more enjoyable. SMN and their pets are supposed to be powerful, or at least look the part, and with what we have now it's just not there. I don't see any reason why Aero III should look 10x more powerful than the Egi's "super ability" Enkindle? Yet the graphics for Aero III and Holy are HUGE, and the graphics for Enkindle and the rest of the Egi abilities, well if you blink you will miss them, and the sound FX they make are more or less nonexistent. Nothing about SMN makes you feel like you are releasing some forbidden destructive power!

    ^ X10. None of our abilities give off any resemblance of power how most, if not all the other classes do. Granted, its all aesthetic but still, we don't have any "oomph" behind our abilities, ESPECIALLY the look of our pets.

    The egi is merely a small portion of your power. The egi is small because their impact is comparatively small, and because SE learned from FFXI that the screen clutter caused by larger summons (technically these aren't even full summons, hence being smaller) was more harmful than beneficial. Yes, Enkindle is not very visually impressive, but is that really the end of teh world? Holy is a big franchise staple, it is supported to be emphasized and impressive. Enkindle, not so much.

    You guys have never seen Deathflare/Akh Morn? That is like the epitome of huge destructive power in all the aesthetic glory it should be.
