Still Excited for More Limited Jobs?

[Reinha]

I would like to hear this "imagination" that makes beastmaster different from a SMN, what would make their pet not effectively to function the same as the Egis and how the Beastmaster itself hitting things wouldn't be similar to SMN.

Make it melee to begin with.

Also, MCH has pets which function differently from Egis. The difference being less control over the pet (turret). Following this train of thought, giving Beastmaster more control over its beasts would make it different from Summoner and Egis. The pet could be commanded with job skills instead of pet skills and this would make it less clunky than SMN.
