I liked sustain because it kept the fairys from healing the shit out of themselves.

Not to rain on your parade but Sustain was a healing over time so if your fairy didn't have any higher priority to heal (which in your case she doesn't) she would still heal the shit out of herself because sustain needs 9 whole seconds to just about heal as much as 2 embraces do in 5 seconds. To make matters worse, Sustain also needs 9 seconds to heal less than a physick would have healed immediately.
As someone with a max level summoner, I've never had issues with any of my egi''s even come close to dying. I'm trying to imagine scenarios where it would be a issue and the only thing I can think of are summoner that don't know how to manage their egi's and move them out of bad/aoe. The sustain "issue" seems to vary from person to person and is not even part of the scope of the important issues affecting summoner.SMN egi's die awfully quick now. As a healer, I get a lot of thanks of keeping the Egi's alive but yeah, it's much needed as a SMN.
We can live without it as a SCH but there are times where I miss it but it's not a MUST HAVE especially when we heal and the faeries can heal themselves lol.
Mostly it affects soloing. Titan just dies too fast. I want Sustain back badly, please.
Honestly I do miss Sustain bc my egis have died a few times in levelling dungeons, but it was an unnecessary dps loss. If they do add it back, hopefully it's an ogcd. Anyway this is good.

I won't say that having Sustain back wouldn't be a great QoL, but I feel like people are missing the forest for the trees here in regards to what sort of buffs and adjustments SMN ACTUALLY needs. The devs aren't doing what basically amounts to an emergency balance tune-up just because some SMNs can't get their daily hunts done below level in the open world.
I'm hoping they returned MCH's heat generation to the normal values and buffed Overheat's damage a good deal (+10% minimum would be nice).
Are we really going to have a patch and another maintenance just so crappy MCH and SMNs can be slightly less crappy??? I mean really? Can't they just change jobs to samurai or red mage?
it's the weekly maintenance that will also introduce moon event... why you acting so surprised for someone that's been playing since 2014.
Inventory UI improvement
Real "Repair All" function
more Teleport favored destinations
Mount Roulette Filter
I never used sustain lol in HW the egis took no damage really outside of solo instances there are far more important changes to SMN that need to happen I could care less about a button I never really pressed to begin with
