1. You're right. Their not going to be able to make another job without it being a rehash. They can make it interesting however by giving it mechanics and abilities to make it play differently and the buffs they give something not on the table.

2. Yes, it's getting better because their adding more flavor and mechanics to the jobs. The way I listed out RDM was to give an idea of what it's core and basic concept could be, not literately to be taken as play a summoner clone. As the traditional RDM was just the back up plan for unexpected situations, however these situations don't exist within 14 other than temporary immunity to damage types. Best way I find to make it meet this would be to incorporate DoT's, then give it something else to do to support the party or to add on more damage to be a pure DPS at their choice, thus taking away the pet and making it a more engaging job. It would however have different mechanics to it.
