Summoner: Aetherpact and Egis

[AceofRains]

I am enjoying Summoner overall. I do feel some additions and tweaks could be made to ehance the job thematically. After learning Aetherpact/Devotion. I found this to be the most unwheming action learned on any, ever. While direct buffs are great, a negligible blanket buff to various stats is just a lame mechanic. I find little reason to use this ability strategically.

The solution I propose is that like Scholar's Aetherpact, an Egi becomes tether bound to your self or an Ally. Depending on your Egi, the Ally gains certain boosts.

Summon 1: Increases Spell Speed and Magic Damage of target party member by 15%.

Summon 2: Increases Defense and Enmity Generation of target party member by 15%.

Summon 3: Increases Skill Speed and Physical Damage of target party member by 15%.

Thematically, this change give better reason to the name "Aetherpact/Devotion" and brings it in line with Scholar's Aetherpact. In addition, it would boost the situational usage of Egi types.

Another point I wanted to address is Egi Glamours, and the future of Egis. Summon Bahamut was an amazing step in the right direction. Glamouring Carbuncle also was a nice but small touch. (I don't use it but to each their own.). I am interested in when we will be getting our next set of Egi, and if primals such as Odin, Ravana, Bismarck, Susano, and Lakshmi, could eventually see glamours- Maybe even an Alexander glamour for Bahamut consider its a raid Primal. I find it incredible that we haven't even gotten Leviathan, Shiva, and Ramuh yet all the way into 4.0. I would also hope by level 80 we start seeing the Egi themselves get new abilities.

I believe they mentioned Sephirot and Ramuh are two they're considering as the assets already exist in-game. Many others will require not only new animations to be created, but new egis as well.

Titan as well, since the Sephirot one is basically just a recolor of that.

Summon 2 actually summons Titan already. Don't worry, I also thought the three egis wre Ifrit, Garuda and McNugget.

I have an idea. Maybe don't ridicule a summoner for pointing out something that actually was missed. Go do the Navel (Extreme) and watch for adds. Then go do Containment Bay S1T7 (Extreme) and watch for adds, and/or do summoner quests. You'll notice I'm right.

I personally also want Alphis carfuncles... the black obsidian and the evolving big one moon stone q.q
