All of this should have been egi abilities that we utilized when needed and switching between egis when needed. We as the summoners shouldn't have this power but fuse it with the egis.I don't have much to contribute to the thread as a whole, but as an aside: The reason so many of us are satisfied with that is that we understand that balancing and designing pets is hard work. When you add a pet to Summoner, you add yet another tool, or in the case of Titan-egi and Garuda-egi tools to the Summoner's kit. Summoner is already very powerful in terms of what it can do. The job has a potent targeted buff (Eye for an Eye), one of the most powerful debuffs in the game (Supervirus), is the only damage dealer that can raise, a nigh-passive 5% AoE slow, the strongest bind in the game, and a Heavy that also cuts any incoming healing. Now when we add on pets, we get access to two that can stun, an AoE version of flame spikes, a knock back, a limited off-tank, and the ability to extend their own DoT effects. To add in another pet means to add something in that Garuda-Egi, Titan-Egi, and Ifrit-Egi don't already do or their master doesn't already do, and there isn't a lot of precedence for what we as players can have for them to add a new tool to Summoner that wouldn't break Black Mage's back.
