I'm clearly not playing the same game as you, so I can't relate. I haven't used Sustain in a year, and I use Titan-egi for solo stuff all the time just fine.
Try beating a12s without echo (without handicap) before you throw around insults. (feel free to look me up. I have better numbers then you do and I didn't have a bard in my group ) And not sure you noticed, or your too stubborn to take notice, but no other class in the game can have 20% of their dps die and then suffer such a large penalty for it. You completely ignore that Machinist, the class closest to play style in summoner can have their turret die. It doesn't cost them any mp/tp/dps to re-summon it. Their turret is instant cast and has a 10 second cooldown. Pets are effected by more aoe damage this expansion compared to heavensward.You would be whining like the rest of us if your pet died after every mega holy, almost holy, or after defamation. There are cases like this in stormblood where your pet can get hit by everything, and you are spending needless amounts of mp to keep it alive. More Mp spent on pet = Less mp to use on spells and less time attacking.

Meanwhile Monk/Samurai/Ninja/Dragoon/Machinist/Bard/Red Mage/Black Mage don't have to spend any mp to swiftcast rez 25% of their dps.
