Nevermind Ravana or Susano, they haven't even covered the rest of the vanilla series regulars from ARR yet.

I honestly expect them to pull another "but we just gave you guys another (20-second) egi with Phoenix" like they did with Bahamut in SB to handwave the issue for another full expansion cycle.


But I do like pleasant surprises.

I would prefer that, instead of egi glamours, they would make Summoner actually like an FF Summoner. FF XI comes to mind specifically. What we have right now is a glorified WoW warlock.

The janitors at Square Enix have been tasked with creating the egi glamours. Please give them some time to try and figure out programming and graphic design. Thanks.

I would love that just as much as the next Summoner, but it's never going to happen. I'm sure the developers wish they could toss Summoner into limited-job hell and be done with it for all the trouble they've had carving out an identity for Summoner.

And the WoW Warlock is a glorified DAoC Cabalist, which is a glorified Everquest Necromancer. DoT Pet caster is an MMO staple, not something exclusive to WoW.

If we also wanted to have Smn be truly like their original FF counterparts, could make them just be glorified Blm with 2 min cast bars.

Why do people think they are entitled to more because they play a certain job? They gave you Phoenix. You should be ecstatic. Just stop it.

I don't see any entitlement in this thread, other than the entitlement to our opinions.

Because the devs were on record to say that they were working on it but stopped cold-turkey at the Carbuncles. Phoenix is nice, but it's hardly a new "egi" (or even new if you want to get technical, 80% sure it's just about a reused model from the Coil boss, which I'm sure is why they went ahead with it).


"Entitled" is threatening to unsub without its implementation and outright demanding it "or else." New egis or not are not a breaking point for most, but let's not pretend the devs haven't been stringing people's expectations along about it with past interviews.

Yet BRD got it's very own performance actions, so if that job can get special treatment then it's completely acceptable to ask for other jobs to get some extra attention as well. Just stop posting if you have nothing to contribute, "LOOK AT ME LOOK AT ME" pretty much sums you up.

Well smn is the only job in the game that has options to change how some of their abilities look...

So by your logic it's every class aside from bard and smn who are entitled to ask for special treatment.
