Summoner Needs to be buffed

If you think SMN, which only has three casts every minute, has less mobility than anything that isn't a Machinist, Bard, or Dancer, you're having a laugh mate.

Never said less mobility. If I recall I said same as rdm. Only difference is RDM utility is way better. Folks be acting like other classes don't have mobility. The only caster who isn't mobile is BLM.

Even black mage is pretty mobile compared to healers. BLM being a turret hasn't been a thing for a loooong time. At least, not compared to ARR and so on.

SMN is literally 3 casts per minute less mobile than the ranged. You didn't say it, I did. What you said was that something with considerably more than three casts per minute is somehow equally as mobile as something with only 3 casts per minute. This, of course, is objectively wrong.

BLM (and to a lesser extent RDM) need to plan their tools around the fight so they have access to their mobility as they need. And, in the cast of RDM, you need to make sure your opener is tight and GCD timing is in synch with the fight if you don't want to have your ogcds drift because you used swiftcast to move and made everything come up midcast.

Summoner needs to... just not use those moments to cast the one slipstream, the one hardcast ruby rite, or the one ruin 3 they need to cast in their rotation.

SMN mobility is literally handed to you on a silver platter and you pretty much have to work NOT to have access to it.

The fact that you DIDN'T say that it has only slightly less mobility than a ranged thing is the problem.
