Fix Summoner Once and For All in 6.0 Please!

[juicybug]

I like the way summoner works for the most part, my biggest complaint (bc i like the rotation overall it has a good flow but could be improved)

The pet UI needs an overhaul and there needs to be more pet glams to skin over the summons. Ones based from the Aeons/Espers/Summons/GFs from other FF titles.

What I suggest.
Ifirt > should have been a Hellhound medium sized avatar, rather than a small two armed spirit/red carby. Hellhound would be about to stomach height on tall Hyur male.
Garuda > a Green avian with feathers and large wingspan the size of small setting on demi-bahamut.
And get rid of Titan or add a new summon like a Ramuh based one, and make it a set of dark shroud fairies. Like tiny magus sisters, but lightning themed.
Add Shiva summon, one that closely resembles her art, no bigger than max height elezen male if you include her crown.
Demi- Bahamut can stay as it is, although I do with for alternate skins from other FF titles.

I don't like the egi skins, or how lack-luster they feel. Visually, I ignore them and just focus on the demi-summons who are really the only ones that are visually more inline with a "summoner".

The thing you're asking is actually Demi-Summons, a they are meant to be a more "complete", or bigger, representation of the creature. The Egis, as the very name suggests, is an effigy version of a Primal, it's meant to be small and simplistic in its design.

It would be interesting if they somehow let us cosmetically customize the Trances... Since elemental damage doesn't matter anyways, you could have the default Bahamut / Phoenix and be able to glam them to available options, and the Enkindle would visually change accordingly. This would fulfill that classic summoner fantasy without adding more trance stages.

While still offering options to glam the egis themselves as well.

Also maybe it's time to change SMN LB3 to be huge summon, like Leviathan or Alexander... The current one screams more "wyrm-mage" than Summoner.
