Just remove Physick, and then add "Summon Moogle King" Simularly to the other summons, moogle will be summoned, appear, use a aoe pom-cure or something, and then dissapear. The summoner gains 3 stacks of "mog-attunement" to use on 3 abilities.
Gemshine turns to Pom-cure 2 (a single target heal)
Preshoius brilliance turns to Moogle-go-round (a small aoe crit buff)
Astral Flow turns to Momento Moogle (an aoe damaging attack)

i may put this idea into more thought and detail later, but I feel like this type of approach will only add to the fun, identity and versatility of the class
Having an optional Summon for recovery in the rotation would be awesome. It would also justify the bottom of the barrel damage SMN is doing. One of the key features of the Moogle King in the ARR extreme was that he used his own health to replenish that of his smaller Moogle allies even reviving the incapacitated. That would be super fun to incorporate into his summoning. Since Phoenix doesn't actually have any revival skill it wouldn't compete either. Let King Mog have an AoE revival upon summoning within a reasonable radius of the caster. This would mean a SMN would need to stand strategically at a point to revive the most people and make use of their crazy mobility. Turning Gemshine into Pom-Cure 2 is very fitting but Precious Brilliance would make more sense as an AoE Heal to match it in my opinion that shared 4 charges. This summon would be incredibly powerful for recovery but also interrupt the cycle of attunement to air, fire, and earth making it a notable DPS loss. It would add some risk versus reward to SMN that would be much appreciated for me personally. I wouldn't mind giving up the standard Ressurection spell we have currently for something more flashy like this.
