Whatever makes you think that??



oh...

I lol'd. I think what's especially telling is premade composition these days. Most of the good ones are rocking 4-6 SMNs and powering through everything. What I dislike about SMN is the risk vs reward balance. For a good melee, we could call it a high risk, high reward job. Good damage sure, but massed range can and will melt your face instantly if you get cocky or focus fired. SMN? All reward, zero risk. Massive burst and dot damage while standing at absolute max range, safe in a pack of other ranged DPS and while popping sprint freely without having to worry about enliven or invigorate. Or cast times for their burst. Honestly, if I was a BRD, I'd be even more disgruntled with summoners. SMNs are the mobile ranged DPS job that Bards were supposed to be, but then weren't after being hit with 'sweet spot' ranged dps nerfs that kill your damage if you put too much distance between you and your target. Or if the enemy gets too close. SMNs have no such concerns.
