Summoner and the upcoming changes

[Brinzy]

I guess I can't complain too much, because I just want the class to be fun, but I won't know if it'll be fun. I'm sure we'll be fine numbers-wise, either immediately or HW style where we get buffed for multiple patches. However, I'm much more concerned with the class feeling smooth and not being terribly boring. Of course, what's fun is subjective, but things like Aetherflow being a bit clunky with Aethertrail, this awful damage boosting utility we have, and a few other things makes me feel a bit nervous for the class feeling like it has proper flow.

I'll get max level and practice my opener/rotation until I get it down perfectly, just like this time around... and then I'll pass judgment. I'll hang on until then and be as positive as I can reasonably be.

Snip.

This is my main concern too. Although I do have some salt over the AOE changes. They nerfed deathflare man. DEATHFLARE D: You can take my bane, my shadowflare, my blizzard 2 but don't you dare touch my baby D:

To be fair the ability was OP as a summoner main. The 400 potency with no reduction was insane. But god damn, it was so satisfying. It's still there, but it'd not the same yo.

I've played summoner a lot in creator savage and I can't help but feel like the class will feel incredibly boring to play with the changes just by knowing the "feel" of the class from those fights.
