The job may be shining right now, but the brilliance is too much that it's going to blind people due to their own subjective definitions as to what counts as a balanced state for PvE DPS as a whole. Again while comparing the other casters vs BLM is important, that's not what the big picture is about right now. Especially with The Epic of Alexander (Ultimate) looming around the corner.
Yes the summoner must be slightly nerf, but how many jobs were completely unbalanced on this game, it is an infinite wheel, the perfect balance does not exist with square enix who always repeats the same error,

and read some people the Summoner should be less strong than a Red Mage, or suffer a back return in the level of his 5.08 damage.
