But what about Summoner???

FF11 model is one of the worst exemple of pet class, since most of the time, people was calling the pet, doing one spell and send it away, since the pet was draining all your mana. other point if you was doing this, what will you do exept spend your time at virtually do nothing... you become not different than a minion.

ps: i think they have found a good balance between us and pet damage.

actually i quite liked ff11 system. you can buff/deal damage and control pet depends on the battle requirement. in ff14, they are just extra DPS.
