    Excuse you?

    I've been maining SMN for around 7 years now (and I do know how to play it well, thank you very much), and I love everything about it (its lore, its aesthetics, its Egis, etc.).
    Which is exactly why I've been VERY vocal about my displeasure on the lack of (proper) Egi glamours, which we've been promised for so very, very long.

    So you're obviously wrong there.

    Also "away from Egi and more into summons"?
    Lore-wise, it's waaay too late for that, considering that:
    1. Primals themselves are extremely hazardous and unable to be controlled through "conventional" means.
    2. The SMN job is an "anti-Primal" discipline that uses the essences of Primals against them (through the use of tamable constructs based on them).
    The closest you'll get to "summons" are the Demi-Summons, and even then they're pretty much "extensions" of their respective Trances (that also rely on Egis as a "base").

    Forever waiting on *new* Egis/summons (e.g. Ramuh-Egi).

    okay you mained it since it came out....so did many others who want drastic changes to the class, like not only those people but the literally development team hates the job mechanics, the job really has no more growth, what will they do next just throw summon demi alexander while maintaining the rigid system of mini rotations within a big weird rotation...DWT, Bahamut, Pheonix, Alenxander(or whaterever else). The job has reached its breaking point and that's so obvious it showed when Shadowbringers first started and honestly was prevalent in SB as well look at the balancing issues that caster face time and time again and its usually because SMN is either in a really bad place or way to strong the pet potency is all over the place.

    lore will be fine because what you said is true ultimately the lore revolves around SMN using the essence of primals but through the HW story then they move towards using that power to actually summon the powers of said primals themselves...I can bet you that the dev team is going to drastically change pets whether you want it or not because from their point of view its a nightmare that is why you will probably never get the egi glamour or wont see it till late in the expansion when the egi is reduced to ash or a timed turret like MCH.
