Why do you guys say bigger summons would hurt other players field of view? Many other MMO's have some sort of pet class, with bigger pets/summons/minions, and they're not disruptive, at all. It's just you've become accustomed to the way they are now and would resent the change.
Me not being a summoner and having no knowledge of their existence, i was a tad disappointed when i first saw one, they're okaish i guess, but look more like a cosmetic pet than a combat "summon". They could have been made bigger and more threatening, of course not ridiculous as their primals, but i understand this is never going to change, it would be the same as going to WoW and make their Hunter/Warlock pets/minions smaller.
