FF14 Frontline Rules TGS 2014 Edition

well SMN burst is easily avoidable since you can remove dots with Purify, remove Aetherflow stacks with One Ilm Punch, interrupt casts, silence Surecast/equanimity, knockback surecast/equanimity, stun surecast/equanimity, Reduce cast time 20%, get out of range, get behind walls/pilars etc. Black Mage have heavy + sleep + Aetheric manipulation that make u harder run away and they get more benefits from Swiftcast. I do not say who is stronger, I just think they are kinda equal. Summoner have good sustained damage, BLM have good cc.

In topic: I think the main reason is not Summoner itself. I think they want all teams 2 be same and not 2 be any different setup for any team, so all are 100% equal and can not blame "team x win cause of different set up". Because there is 9 jobs in the game and other arcanist job is healer that healer would choose at first. So summoners just have only bad luck and get kicked away from the party because only 8 jobs can join into it.

You guys are reading too much into this. It's just SE being lazy and want both team to have the exact same setup for simplicity (so that everything is down to skill and teamwork) like the previous poster mentioned.

Beside, it's not like the general forum goers even care about keeping the game balanced seeing how much hate is thrown on healers in the pvp subforum. Heck, even if by some crazy chance summoner is removed from PVP for good, you'd still have a thousand people out there defending SE and drown out all the complaints.
