Do you know what i mean by that?
Your point is invalid due to the fact Dark Knight is a tank in ffxiv and not a scythe wielding dps. What happens in old games doesn't necessarily apply to this one. Also I don't recall an FF game where a summon could be killed. And I can't name a single other class in this game that can have 25% of their dps killed.
It makes no sense to ask for Sustain back when you can already repurpose a spell summoner already has, and make it useful for any situation.
