But before dropping ideas on what new primary weapons, Squenix should finish the new iteration of SMN. Things like, introducing three new primal summons as part of the regular rotation and making them accessible before hitting max level.
    Yeah, at its current state, I'd rather not have him at the battlefield. Not that I want the little twerking carby to be deleted, but if they removed RA from it as well as the requirement to cast the Demis, it can live as a cosmetic spell.

    The best case scenario would be for SE to add something... anything to make the pet engage in battle. I'd think they could have a dps equivalent of Embrace. It would be a marginal percentage of the SMN's dps, but better than having the pet idle.

    And when you hit the button there would be a 20% chance that the carbuncle wouldn't do anything.

    You really want to go back to that? Because that was life before the rework.

    Squares pet A.I. is trash and I don't want my dps hanging on it.

    No?... The thing I suggested is a dps equivalent of Embrace, which means an automatic source of damage. Symbolic at best, having it at a similar potency, but would mean quite a lot to see the pet actually engaged in combat. Of course this is not the most desired solution, because that would require combat code revamp or something else, but with what we have right now, I suppose it would be either that or making the carby just a cosmetic spell.
