Thread: Summoner a new form of summoning in 4.0

No..they want that 99999 dmg to miss 60% of the time. Hey as long as it looks cool! Since SMN is my main, I'm very happy with my job. I love that Ifrit has a party buff, I pet swap a bit here and there in dungeons.

The ones who complain about the looks of the egi rather the actual function of the job are just people who want to play something pretty. I've accepted the look of the pets, I really thought we would get secondary primals or lesser known ones to command. I am happy with the adjustments to the job and playing the story I get very into my job.

You don't hear a lot of positive posts because..they're actually playing the job and loving it. I never played EQ much, well I did..I was a healer and my favorite thing I saw instantly was the aoe placement regen..and now we have that. Maybe I need to check the pet one out too.

That's another thing I didn't miss from the 11 days, if your pet died you were basically dead in the water unless you could summon your pet back out. I didn't always have Aquaveil up so I would get hit with casting interrupted.
