If you were part of the DEV team what adjustment will you make to Summoner?

My suggestion is foremost to remove their pets. Instead I think summoners would be a lot more entertaining and impressive if they summoned their various pets just long enough for them to launch a powerful attack. I imagine that summoning Ifrit and having him launch a single Hellfire and then leaving would look cool and feel more like a traditional summoner. I also think this would allow a greater variety of summons to be used in battles. The individual summons need not strictly be restricted to only launching attacks either, some could perhaps grant the party some form of buff.

This is the only Final Fantasy game I know of where summoners are a pet class and it honestly doesn't make them feel fun to play. I'd take old school summoner any day. That said it'd definitely need some sort of mechanic surrounding them being granted the ability to perform those powerful summoning magics. Not sure how you would go about balancing all that, but I hope some game designer could piece it all together.
