I fear for Summoner

[Akiza]

The problem is the clash between the how the developer wants the game to be played and how players want to play the game. Players created the Holy Trinity and the Developers continue to use it. Statics decide what jobs are viable not developers and right now statics have decided that Summoners are worthless and won't take them into FCOB. The same thing happened with the WoW Warlock during Cataclysm.

I'd like to say there is a clash between between endgame statics and everyone else, but I can't speak for others. I love Summoner the way it is now; it's currently the only dps job that appeals to me. If little tweaks here and there are warranted to make it no longer "worthless", then fine. If the job needs to be tampered with, such as redefining Tri-Disaster, then we have a problem. If it's at the point where the job needs to overhauled into a "controller class", that's what you've suggested in another thread, then no thank you!
