Throwing the tome: 4.2 Summoner Feedback

[Wayfinder3]

To be fair, SMN needs to be dealt with, this job needs an identity beyond the pet caster because it's stepping on the heels of BLM as the heavy DPS caster and, RDM as the high utility caster. the nerfs to SMN allow blm to further distinquish itself but it's still smuthering RDM to an alarming degree. Because Verraise is so powerful (but only actually at it's best in world prog when "everything" is unknown.) RDM gets completely forgotten. Allow me to explain. Since a decent amount of the player base that raids uses some sort of guide, video, text or diagram. This actively shortens the novelty that RDM raises provides. if you know every mechanic thats coming before you enter, SMN single raise is more than enough of a buffer to get you there while providing significantly more dps than RDM. To combat this, SMN needs it's own identity and MUST lose it's ability rez. find it's own niche, it's literally attempting to steal the chances of both the other casters and is a unhealthy job in it's current iteration.
