Often people say that Dark Knight is in a bad spot, but what other Jobs...

Summoner potency should be modified a little bit, and that's likely. Many jobs will get some numbers changes at most.



Wrong. Scholar is pretty good, and not even last on healer pDPS

I'd say SMN needs a bit more than just a few potency tweaks. Phoenix is a straight up loss of DPS just by unlocking it. Rekindle is a useless heal/hot that is situational in almost all instances, with the exception of maybe helping out during trash packs in dungeons (And most tanks don't need that extra help anyway). Unlocking phoenix replaces the second Bahamut summon in the rotation so SMN's lose the second Deathflare. I'd like to see Rekindle moved to a stack morph of Physick instead (Giving that useless, archaic holdover a use) with like a 30 second duration on the stack hold, to make it more useful of when to drop it (Don't have to change a single thing about what the current Rekindle actually does in terms of its heal/hot potencies, just moving it to a morph of physick and giving you 30 seconds to decide when to use it is INFINITELY better than where it is currently), and give Phoenix's Astral Flow morph a Deathflare like damage potency. Energy drain going back to 30 seconds over 60 would also help out, as they are the only OGCD's SMN currently has to weave other than Mountain Buster during Titan.

Summoner seems like it has a good base to work upon. It just needs more life action and time... I hope this will lead to future developments as I have heard numerous Summoner mains say that it feels like it's missing something.

I'm not sure what though.
