Any news on summoner egi glamours?

[AmalahRose]

I would gladly pay $12 for a bahamut egi summon XD

I would pay double that just to have my little Carby back again. D:

[FreakinZMartin]

Would be nice if SE gave us an update on this, we all have been waiting for awhile now...

[Eloah]

Don't give SE any more cash shop ideas, please. I want it but I refuse to pay for something I was promised and then was told I wasn't going to get; new egis in general not the glamour system.

Remind me again as to why they couldn't add new egis?

PS3 was the reason.
Balance was "the reason".

[Kaurie]

Balance issues. The three egis we have at the moment aren't even balanced correctly, and it would be better for them to focus on the ones we have before adding any new ones. If they added new ones and they didn't add anything as or more useful than, say, Contagion than they would be pointless.

Though, they could take a page from the MCH/BRD book and have a pet that is more of a support and provides MP/TP to the party while doing less damage - as the pets are roughly 20% of our damage, they could simply have that pet do absolutely 0 DPS and only provide support. To add to this, I'd suggest that it drain the MP of the SMN - so that it's not to overpowered or rendering MCH/BRD less desired, but would provide another support option in clutch situations.

Then there could be another pet that helps increase the damage output of the party while not providing a lot of damage output themselves. This would be a pet that is obviously more useful in larger parties (8 vs 4).

Then there could be another pet that is more involved with CC than DPS - this will provide more DPS than say the last 2, but less than our current Ifrit/Garuda. This pet could provide more stuns/slows/freezes|binds

I think it would be great if they added a mode for Titan that helps more in a tank support capacity, so that it can be useful in a dungeon. i.e. Instead of having it grab agro off the tank, it actually helps soak some of the damage from the tank. This would allow for your healer to help DPS more. This could also potentially help provide more strategies in dealing with tank busters in higher end raids.

I hope they put it in soon. I really want to continue playing summoner but sadly I just cant stand the look of the pets, I know its a small thing but for me it really bothers me a lot.
Can they just make the new primal pet skins on the egis.

If the pets are going to support the pt, the mp should be taken away from all the party members. (The ruin3 already consume a lot of mp by itself.if the pet consume our mp too, we won't be able to use rikn 3 which is our strong attack way aparts from our dots)

This says 3.2 (With no confirmed timeline)... Don't know how accurate it is though...

You shouldn't be using Ruin III much if at all when out of Dreadwyrm Trance.

Also, is this in reference to my post? The 'support' pet gave MP to the team, it would be silly for it to simultaneously drain and regen MP for the team.

The last (I believe) official thing said about it was from the XXIII Letter (July):

Q7. Can you please let us know the current progress for the system where we can change the looks of summoner egi?

A7. We haven’t been able to address this yet. We’ll need to make this work with all the actions and we’re going to start working on this, so please give us some more time. Even if we were going to change their appearance, we would need to create the effects, sound, and actions for each egi, so it’ll require some time. We’re still deciding if we’re going to add these as we’re done with each one, or add them all at once, so please be patient while we work on this.
