Dev silence about SMN

[Akiza]

With 2.4 i changed my main job from smn to nin. I hope SE fix soon smn for the people that are playing it. Not only mana issue, they still needs to fix spell speed on smn, it only affects to garuda... titan and ifrit are affected by skill speed.

I hope that with 3.0 smn starts to change from a dot job with a weak pet to a pet job only.

Ninja kept its flavor and identity from single player games while the Summoner became a poor man's Black Mage.

As soon as we lost thunder..it went all downhill from there.

I think Miasma II should count towards fester now. Since Ninja's have an attack for 500 Potency. 400 petency on SMN and can use it like every 15 seconds should that would be kind of broken lol

I would love if bane can hit all target within Range but you will never see melee in dungeons anymore. With all dots up and if the SMN is geared, it will tick for about 550-700 every 3 ticks which is a lot of damage

Jsut like someone said SMN would either Top or below. I dont see a middle ground for them. If the Devs can do that than Kudos to them

[Tex_Mex]

The middle ground is very easy to achieve. Small buffs to MP regen and minor damage buffs would bring them into line.

You can accomplish both of these things with one change:
Give Fester a 50% chance to allow your next energy drain to cost no aetherflow.

This fixes MP regen issues while also giving them a sight damage buff from additional energy drains.

Easy peasy.

[Duragon]

You have to look at the potency of both Ruin spells and give summoners Thunder back.

Make Tri-Disaster usefyul as an aoe and dont limit its potential as it has been thus far.
