Expect more focus on spells again in the coming expansion.
Actually they started focusing on the pets, they were working on releasing Ramuh-Egi and Shiva-Egi before Heavensward. At some point they decided to cancel it and focus on the summoner itself, we got the trance in the expansion. If i am not mistaken they stated to keep focusing on the summoner rather the pets onward. The trance system it's a good one and it could be very well exploited in future abilities, i just hope they give the pets some love on traits or something.
