Planned Adjustments to PvP

[Venom]

If melee are consistently doing 2x your SMN's damage, you are extremely undergeared, extremely bad, or both.

You beat me to it, I think what we have is an isolated case where somebody who isn't that good at their class is unhappy because it is about to get harder for them. For 99% of SMN it will just be balancing it. 8k as a SMN is quite low dps yes, it is not the job though as I have seen players do 20k+. Basically this player is either not being honest or not good at summoner. That is certain now they've admitted only doing 8K. I could do more than 8K in full 55 PVP SMN gear in 80 weapon, I actually tried this and got 10k. SMN isn't even my main class and I don't play it much, so as in inexperienced SMN I still beat this 8k figure.

The problem is this PvP is very team central. People here complain about a class like SMN as if it was a 1v1. Even after the nerf melees are still going to die to SMN and SMN are still going to deal the most damage it's just the nature of the class. If you leave a SMN to cast his dots of course he's going to deal the most damage. If you're dieing to SMN now you're still going to die to them after the nerf. SMN just rewards good players more than some of the other classes. Put more effort in you get more results out of it.

I know I will still deal the most damage anyways and I also accept that I have to rely on my team to be good if I am going to win on my SMN just like I do now. IF you solo queue you're going to lose a lot no matter what the other team is. I can see maybe a healer carrying a team to victory but other classes not so much. If you lose a lot and want to succeed then you have to play with other people so you can actually get better rather than relying on pugs.

As a Summoner I really don't see the amazing damage in the Pvp battle summary usually my numbers are around 8,000 damage, Black Mage 10,000 damage Bard gets 14,000 damage and Dragoon is 17,000 damage. If Square is going by pure damage number Summoners should be buffed because a Dragoon or Black Mage constantly does twice the amount of Damage I do in PvP. Beside Summoners should always be doing insane damage since they have low defense, wear light armor and they can't take a hit Summoners have no defense if a Melee or Bard gets on to of the and I use swift cast, sure cast and equilibrium when able to. If a Summoner gets hit while casting they still take damage and die because we can't move while casting. If Square nerfs Summoner damage they should get an invincibility farm while casting to offset the nerf which will destroy Summoners I'm pvp

Considering these adjustments to what was clearly unfair advantages.

Please reset our PvP profiles ( Score only, not rank ) or could we please have an option to reset our PvP profiles ( Wins and tottal games played only )?

Parties with 2 Summoners are always op I can get 18k damage easily it has nothing with the class itself but party composition. Summoners are an Iconic class with a rich lore and should not be able to be beat in damage by a melee they should be doing insane damage. Summoner's 1v1 should be unbeatable lore wise besides it's not like we are summoning a God like Primal that's' one shotting everyone in PvP.

Yea... we totally need the developers spending time tossing together a reset option for a feature only you can see that has no effect on anything in the game... now that's what I call an effective use of their time.

This is probably the worst pvp I've played in a mmo in a long time, maybe ever.
