Suggestions to Improve the Current Egi

[Akiza]

OPs ideas are terrible they just screw up the mechanics and don't go far enough where is the monstrous and titanic summon.

[Delvish]

100% agree. Garuda and Ifrit should be equal in terms of use. Garuda is good for stable DoT since movement is not required, Ifrit should have a stronger auto-attack since he is in melee range. Even from a solo standpoint, Ifrit is only used for soloing really weak things where it really doesn't matter. Anything that does we use Titan. Ifrit-egi needs a boost!

On that note, I am interested in seeing Leviathan-egi and what he brings to the table.

Do us all a favor and just stop posting. You wouldn't know a good idea if it bit your face off. The OP's suggestions are simple, yet effective changes that would make Ifrit alone, better. This one post beats all of your "ideas" combined.

No they aren't they just take away Egis abilities and replace them with something useless. Ifit is fire based so he will always be physical damage and mob control, Garuda is wind best so she is our main attacker and Titan is earth element which is our tank. The Egis are fine they just need more abilities and the Summoner needs more pet buffs.

Garuda is fine the way she is. Titan and Ifrit however are not. Ifrit is unarguably garbage because he is outperformed by Garuda in every way. A damage increase, a gap closer to Crimson Cyclone and a utility function to Radiant Shield would make Ifrit so much better. A Shield Oath type stance for Titan would be glorious. How you find these worthless is mystifying. The only reason Garuda is best for dealing damage isn't because her element is wind, it's because of contagion. A good SMN would know this.

They need to add abilities to the Egis and additional pet buff skills to the Summoner
Ifrit Egi is a fire element and will always be mob control so add
-Eruption
-Plumes
-Flame wave
-Fire Burning on dots

Garuda Egi is wind element so she will forever be our main attacker and needs aoe bursts so add
-Down Bursts
-Gust
-Summon Tornados
-Haste to Summoner

Titan Egi is Earth and will forever be our tanking pet so add
-Bombs
-Weight of the Land
-Tumult
-Encase the Summoner in earth armor.

May as well make MNK Super Saiyans while you're at it.

Snip.

Akiza, I think you just want the Hard/Extreme Mode Primals as pets (or you're just a really bad troll)... >//3//>()
My suggests were to just make the egi more interchangeable and useable during the end game.
Poor Ifrit's role as a mob killer can easily be ignored and people could just summon Garuda and spam Aerial Slash, her Enkindle, and Contagion>Bane, my suggestions were to help make an even playing field for him, giving him a ranged spell so he can continue doing damage when you're making him dodge and a spell to help boost his damage when fighting an opponent with higher physical resistance (which is like 90% of the end game), a gap-closer to help him transition between range and melee AND is a very good transition into something like Flaming Crush or his Enkindle, and to make Radiant Shield, spike-damage wasted on something that can't even generate hate, making it useless, into a utility to give him something that would give him a small, microscopic chance against Garuda's utility. As for Titan, the poor thing rarely-if-not-never sees the light of day at end game because there is almost no soloing opportunities and no party wants to rely on an AI to tank for them (unless it's for a nerf or gimmick), so my suggestions were to give him a chance to be usable out of his usual sphere of tanking and actually useable in parties, which takes up all of the end game.
Suggesting things like giving players access to boss mechanics like summoning tornadoes, bombs, or plumes is just too much...

Just ignore Akiza

Giving the Egis boss mechanics would not be too much because they would get severely weakened anyways for example how much damage does Ifrit's Flame crush do Titan's Mountain Buster or Garuda Egis razors do not much and they are boss mechanic moves.
