Smn class that doesn't summon the primals....

i would love to se ffxiv's version of a necromancer which is a summoner of sorts. would make a really col thm job given their lore.

Necromancer is virtually non-existant in the FF mythos except in villainous role (FF:T for instance).

It doesn't fit with the FF lore at all to have necromancer heroes.

I currently know nothing about Yoshi-P's vision in how he wants this game =/

Well, given his constant back-and-forth communication with the FFXIV player community, I'd say his vision is to give the players whatever they happen to be clamoring for at the moment... (server issues withstanding).

I'd take that as a warning to be very careful what you ask for.

God I would love to see Team Ivalice zodiacs/espers in this game. I love them way more than the originals.

Its good to see that there are others that like this idea as well. I've always been a big fan of the traditional FF summons, but the zodiac espers/totema have fantastic concepts that haven't been explored nearly enough.

As I stated in another post. The use of FF final bosses for espers in FFXII was a fantastic idea. I think you could even pull from more recent games and bring in summoned versions of Jenova, Greiver, Necron, Sin, and even Promathia, Shadowlord, or Lilith Ascendent.

Ah, I never played FFV:A so I stand corrected

Interesting that they called the job 'Necromancer' though. Instead of animating the dead (which is the typical approach to necromancy in gaming), it was more of a black magic/occult type of job with demon summoning and forbidden spells.

Warlock seems like a more appropriate name to me for that job, but w/e...
