The problem with Summoners

[rawker]

As much as I wanted to jump on the idea that this class needs to be reworked in 3.0, I have come to think that the game is still young and that there will be more expansions in the near future - one of this expansion is how to better channel the power of the Primals so that the Egis summoned will be more or less a step closer to the Primals themselves. I guess the progression is that more Egis of this level will come at level 60 and Greater Egis will surface at let's say... level 75, as it is halfway to level 99. So I am not expecting much to happen come HW and just hope better things to come in future expansions.

Yeah I think it's safe to say much later down the line we will see the Egi become something more, or at least I hope that will be the case. My worry right now is more so that the focus of the Summoner's play style is not on the Egi. As Craiger said it's a big task reworking a job. But perhaps there is a way for the Summoner's future abilities to be more focused on the Egi without altering the play style that's already in place. Perhaps abilities that add elemental effect's to our standard DoT rotation which is governed by the Egi.
