Necromancer Identity Crisis

[Capriana]

snip

What you are suggesting is ludicrous. They can not simply go back and change all the FFXIV lore, story lines, quests, and everything with summoners in them.
This is the card we are dealt with and we should learn to enjoy it.

I also don't see anything wrong with the summoner, sure you don't get huge ass summons with lots of graphics and 30min cut scenes, but THEY are using nukes and spells borrowed from the primal. Have you seen the animation of DeathFlare? Or even the icon? It is simply, Bahamut's signature move without the whole Bahamut animation summon. The camera doesn't go into outer space, the bahamut doesn't go flying within stars to target Eorzea and then take 5 min to charge up its ever so powerful attack, you just see the flare hitting the mobs. What is wrong with that?

At the end, know this, the summoner is here to stay and SB will have great things in store for it. Just wait and see. They will not change its name and give you a new class just so you can feel like you are playing a summoner class from the FFT or FF4 or something. Enjoy it as a new type of summoner made just for FFXIV.

Next thing you know, you want summon animations from FFXV or the power they had ...
