Summoner Needs to be buffed

[wereotter]

Phoenix only buff :/

I mean it almost gets it up to par with Bahamut, but that's it.

Pretty sizeable buff though.

Fountain of Fire -> 430 to 520.
Brand of Purgatory -> 180 to 240.

Phoenix phase hitting harder, means the overall DPS will increase a bit, which is all that's required to make SMN competitive on DPS.

That's not bad though, I mean I was expecting a few more potency buffs. But this isn't a bad thing.
This should help a bit. And atleast they did something rather, and well look at what DNC got.

540 potency every 2 minutes.

I'm not sure that's enough to get summoner in line with the rest. I'll take whatever buffs they want to give the job, this just feels really conservative.

"sizeable" I think the math puts it like ~40 potency over bahamut phase.
It's a start but I would hardly call it sizeable to essentially get something we should have never lost in the first place

[MagiusNecros]

It's a good buff. I think Ifrit needs something similar. I feel like Ifrit is discount Fire 4 atm.

The increased potency should help using Phoenix not seem so bad compared to Bahamut burst.

So I guess smn is staying down with phys ranged. Well, I guess it's better than nothing...

How far behind do you think SMN is right now to where it should be?

Bigger buffs that pleases some of you would only create another OP situation. -_-

[VorpalSpork]

Don't see these buffs making SMN ever wanted over the other two casters. Probably remain just above Dancer at the bottom of the DPS charts.

We just want to be competitive with RDM which is far more desirable as it is currently.
