That's why instead of summoning a new egi, you merely channel the aetheric energy of Bahamut for Dreadwyrm trance.

It'd be very odd for them to suddenly backtrack job lore
Speaking of the Ramuh Egi, I wonder why they haven't done the Summoner/Scholar glamour system yet. They keep hinting at it i.e the ruby carbuncle lamp, but I thought it was supposed to be out by now?
