Anyone miss the old pet jobs from ffxi?

Not asking for changes, but I do miss my wyvern and summons from ffxi. I know Drg and Smn are powerful dps currently but ever now and then I miss my old ffxi smn and drg. How about you guys?

I too miss some elements from XI's SMN, visually the Egi should resemble the Avatars/Primals more.

I miss Beast Master and Puppet Master from Final Fantasy XI

I was really excited for summoner to come out when I was in beta, until I got to see what it actually was. I was really disappointed. It just doesn't feel like a 'summoner' to me.

I did end up enjoying it enough to play it as my first job to 50, so the job itself is fine, but the disappointment that it wasn't what I was hoping for it to be never went away.

As a point of reference, my all time fav FF char was Rydia the Caller, so when I heard 'summoner' that's where my mind went.

I thought I was the only one. I'd really love it if they brought back Courier Carrie and Beastmaster somehow—especially if the pet was integral to the classes playstyle.

Every. Single. Day.

I miss BST so bad. And "real" summons instead of digim... I mean "egis".

Yes ; ; I main smn in xiv...but it doesn't feel like a summoner to me

The egi are very underwhelming D:

Nope, I'm happy that the summoner them from XI didn't get into XIV.
I do miss beastmaster and puppetmaster.

People say they miss XI's Summoner but I don't think they realize how lackluster and horrible imbalanced they were compared to other jobs. They were a jack-of-all-trades, master-of-none who literally couldn't do anything with out a avatar out and were outdone by every job that had a specialized function. Nuking and Elemental Damage? Black Mage trumped them. Physical Damage? Monk and Ranger. Healing? White Mage. Buffing? Bard and Corsair. Debuffing? Red Mage, Dancer, and Geomancer.
I think Puppetmaster and Beastmaster were the best two representations of pet-users in XI.

You guys really need to make a "FFXI Megathread" to thin out the individual threads.
