But what about Summoner???

[NinjaTaru72]

im sure this has been posted/asked/w.e a few times. so im sorry in advance. but...

what ever happened to smn getting ramuh and leviathan? last time I remember them talking about it was that they didn't want to add them till other classes got more skills so it was fair.


yet here we get our expansion, new level cap, new skills....and not a new egi.... would have been a perfect chance(55 and 60) to add new egis....

has anything been said recently abut this? did I miss something that maybe they are not coming anymore? or what?

I think they decided against that and instead they are doing skins for the current pets

Not happening. We're getting a Glamour System for our current Egis at some unknown point in the future, but no actual new Egis.

They also made an excuse for it using lore during the SMN 50-60 questline.

Boils down to "Whoops, turns out the first three Primals were actually pussies, everyone else is too boss to leech off of. Here, go play with some Essence D'Calamité, there, now, your power level's OVER 9000 kthxbai".

basically our mana cap isn't high enough to contain their awesomeness

on a more serious note: basically we don't have enough magic capacity to summon them. Think skill point terms, summoning them takes 10 SP while our SP cap is 8

it's more if we try to summon the whole thing.... first we will need tons of cristal and second they will try either to kill us or...kill us since we can't be controled.

I'm talking about the egis, not the whole freakin' primal xD

The SMN quest even tells you right off the bat at lvl50: No Ramuh-Egi or of other primals because they are too stronk to steal part of their essence. So instead you get to channel Bahamut's power, which works just as well for me, way more fun to play now. Who cares about the pet? FF Summoners have always been about unleashing large powers, not being a pet handler.

Actually, that's not accurate.

It's not that they're too strong for us to steal their essence (we still have the essence of ALL primals we've defeated thus far within us), it's just that our own reserves of aether are insufficient to create yet another independent Egi construct (ie. no Summon IV).

Hence what prompted Y'mhitra to find out about an alternative way of summoning (Trance).
