I know what Summoners are. And yes it would be interesting to see them implimented as they were in old FF games... but again that would make them too powerful. SE made them like this so they could DPS while also providing back up, basically the mage form of a Bard. They do their job well... I don't really see why they need to be changed, I've been playing the class since early January. You claim the 'real' summoner thing but are they not allowed to make different choices at all? From what you're saying, no they are not... but thats just my opinion. Either way, done replying here SE isn't gonna take these seriously anyhow.
