(Endwalker) Summoner goes into the right direction but i'd like to see permanent pets

[Tonkra]

....so you want a magic monk?

Well it was a suggestion for the "bending" / "taming" animations.

I mean the current "issue command" animation of the summoner is pretty bad and boring to say the least.
So giving the summoner job class more action orientated bending animations would make it more entertaining - without feeling too passive.

I didnt mean super jumps like the MNK is doing.

30 seconds does not equal persistence in the way you mean here.

Well you misunderstood me. Thats what i would be fine with actually. If the pets would be part of the rotation like in the trailer shown. With the actual only difference that the summonerissues commands to the pets instead of going "melee" monk.
Same skills, same spells, same effects. Just with the difference that the avatars are inflicting the damage, and not the summoner itself.

I have the feel otherwise it wont feel any different to red mage or white mage actually. And to have the kind of feel to play a pet class..

If you are upset because the actual facts don't align with how you feel

The actual facts are that in the past 20 years all FF's (except FFXV) had "permanent" pets.
And this on the other hand doesnt align with your arguments which you are making up here.

the more potential to block others view of a fight, which lessens their enjoyment of said content, which presents another issue for persistent, especially of big flappy ones.

Its all the matter of size. While Bahamut is too huge, they could resize it to the size of the tallest Roegadyn. Problem solved.
It even worked in FFXI.

And yes, i'd be fine with it if Garuda, Ifrit, Titan etc. would be part of the rotation which was shown in the trailer.
So kind of semi-permanent pets like Bahamut etc. already are.

Just with the difference that not the summoner is casting wind spells like a WHM or RDM... instead the pets could inflict the damage and being commanded by the summoner.
