SMN Feels Underwhelming?

[SoloWingMetatron]

Since SE used my idea for the Heavensward Expanison maybe they'll use another one of my ideas for 4.0. I will say I told you so when SE gives Summoner a new form of summoning which allows us to summon Hydaelyn and the Twelve.

Not to sound cheeky but I think it's more likely SE had Dreadwyrm Trance in the works before you or I even picked up on the idea of Primal fusions. SE start developing content at least one year ahead of schedule after all. So development of this would have started before Dreams of Ice was released, which was when we first learnt Iceheart could fuse with Shiva's Aether. So it wasn't really your idea it was the devs, but anyways that's neither here nor there.

I wouldn't be against the idea of an ability that summoned a portion of Hydaelyn or the Twelve. However these are entities that are directly linked to the Warrior of Light, not just Summoners. Which would suggest if a Summoner can call forth Hydaelyn/The Twelve, then all of the other jobs would need to be able to use their power/essence also in some way. Which would be kinda lame I feel as every jobs new abilities would all look the same practically.
