SMN poorly implemented

[Kogasan]

Why does everyone have to say smn sucks and that smn needs to be like it was in ffxi. I personally think that it sucked in ffxi cause in ffxi it was just a makeshift healer. I like the way smn is now and am happy with it. If people want it to be the makeshift healer it used to be why don't they just give up on smn and go be a healer. And let the people that like smn the way it is be in peace.

I been SMN sense the start. It's even better then it is now yet people keep bringing up FF11.
I also hated SMN in FF11, and love what it is and really love it for what it is now.
We are so good I'm sure we will be getting nerfs as blm cry a lot and yoshi loves the job.
We got the nerfs before and buffs to blm.

Oh look. This thread again. Looks like the arguement hasn't changed either. It is full of useless wannabe XI logic, again without legitimate evidence.

Just go back to XI already.

I LOVE summoner in this game. It's such a fun job to play and the abilities they added in expansion are crazy good. I'm really happy with it xD

If they need to do anything, its allow me to choose which abilities are auto cast on CD.

This game plays nothing like FFXI.

So trying to implement a class that would work in FFXI, into this game wouldn't work.

Also, if you're so bothered about Carbuncles, just take off your soul stone and play without it.

In the meantime, I'll be busy morphing into Bahamut.

If SE is screwing up SMN, then I hope they continue doing that...

2.X SMN had potential, but was a little underwhelming IMO, which they certainly changed now in 3.0. If my static didn't need a melee DPS, I would probably go SMN now, because they are f'cking awesome.

Saying a job is poorly implemented because it's not like in FFXI is a pretty stupid statement tbh... 'because this isn't FFXI, and Yoshi-P doesn't want to just copy that game.

FFXI's SMN was boring.

SMNs got Ark Mhon and Gigaflare. They must be the happiest people in Eorzea xD

There's nothing wrong with Smn. My only complaint is that pets didn't get any new abilities and Tri-Disaster has spoiled me.

Summoner's new LB3 is Bahamut's Teraflare.

Technically Megaflare (since it uses the exact same animation as Nael's Megaflare and Bahamut's Gigaflare), since Teraflare looks way more impressive than just a few beams.
