Proposal for bringing back the Carbuncles.

[Bishop81]

One of the most frequently spouted "objections" to giving the Carbuncles back to SMN is, lore.

Just for the record, I don't believe there is anything in lore that disallows SMNs from summoning Carbuncles.

So I would like to propose SE return the Carbuncles (upgraded stats-wise to match the Egis) to SMNs via "joke" quests - that require a moderate amount of effort to complete. (Edit:
Maybe give us a glowing Carbuncle Snuggie if we complete the whole quest chain. :3)

"Joke" quests would be like Omake segments in anime. They aren't technically canon and are just for Fun™ - you know the point of this game.

I believe this will appease the "true believers" with regards to lore.

PS:

Seriously, we have Miqo'te PLDs tanking in bikinis, Lalafell WHMs healing in their pyjamas ... etc.

But I like my pajamas! D:
(Seriously though I'd love to use carbys on summoner and approve of this)

or just add more carbuncles with different color's and make them equal in the strength of the EGI's one of these two options, would be fantastic.
