My humble take on new SMN

[aveyond-dreams]

If complaining for several months straight about how one of the more badly received jobs in Shadowbringers got reworked is not immature, then I leave it to the imaginations of others to come up with a word to describe that sort of behaviour. They have been largely unsuccessful in gaining the sympathy of the general population, especially with the behaviour they've displayed.

It was they who were being catered to since ARR when the job first released. It has consequently led to no small amount of problems that piled up so high over the years that the only way forward left was to start completely from scratch. Now that their stranglehold on the job is broken, they react like kids put in timeout. Fortunately they are outnumbered at the end of the day and their reign of terror is over.

Nevertheless it is obvious why Summoner does not need a dot. Because there are far too many cooler attacks it could have in place of one as opposed to tacking on the very same failed concepts that the rework sought to address. You want dots? Go play Necromancer in 7.0. You want pets that were originally described in ARR as "demons" in the official job descriptions from back then? Wait for Necromancer. Because goodness knows us real Summoners had to wait quite a while for a job worthy of the name to actually be added into the game.
