Summoner and some tight DPS check

[givemeraptors]

You know, considering how mediocre most classes are in terms of AoE output, there's probably a reason every static runs with a BLM nowadays.
Considering most statics bring a BLM for AoE, what's great about Summoner compared to other DPS?

Bwaahaha

At 4 targets and under SMN AoE is actually the best in the game with Bane delivering a whopping 890 potency unboosted per target, plus you can Swiftcast a Shadowflare on top of it. If you were really hurting you could even use an Enkindle. With the notable exception of T4 most endgame content doesn't spawn 4+ adds at once.

At over 4 targets SMN pulls ahead when adds can't be grouped together e.g. Ifrit Ex, Ramuh Ex. because they can multi-dot where other classes will have to burst down targets one at a time.

And you have a SMN or SCH to 50...wut? >_>
