Thread: Summoner is doing too much in 5.10

So... is there any ultimate group that DOESN'T have a SMN? kek.

Sure, some are running with BLM. So far there are very few windows where raising is even beneficial due to the sheer number of body checks and binary wipe conditions. Most however are running with SMN or RDM as expected for their caster, with some even running double caster with a raise caster + BLM. This falls within expected use cases for players for this ultimate release.

BLM mains have been finding LL comfortable. The movement requirements aren't all that, not so frequent and not that intensive yet. Limit cut is boss downtime so rotation isn't of consequence short of US/Eno. Brute Justice + CC onwards? More need to get there and become familiar.

I'm not sure I'd call myself a top summoner lol, but I do have the occasional good moment, contrary to what some say. I am not a HC player, I do not do world prog, I play at a more lax pace. The days of me doing intensive raid leading hours are long since gone. I want to chill and enjoy my xiv with good people while playing hard when I need to, though the allure of theorycrafting in whichever game I focus on is too strong.

Ultimate so far is really fun and Summoner is frankly a god-tier job there especially with all the early multi-targeting going on. Just look at any streamer running with one, which most if not all of the world progging groups are.

Real life commitments takes a toll on how long you can play video games as you get older. I do enjoy my 9 hours of sleep every night though.

Also, Sfia posted a picture of their Alexander Ultimate World 1st clear. Congrats!

At least in the hands of an excellent BLM, a fight as tough as Alexander Ultimate still has BLM as top DPS over SMN. They ran BLM, SMN, BRD, and NIN.
