    That is one avenue that you could take I suppose. However you haven't addressed the rest of my post, i.e. the lack of summons on SMN, the poor implementation of them, and the huge backlash towards lack of egi glamour. The implementation of SMN in this game has been a meme since ARR launched, and is not a good framework to build BST around.

    Anecdotal example from 6 years ago: https://www.reddit.com/r/ffxiv/comme..._but_as_a_smn/


    Edit: Also, Yoshi P supports BST as a limited job, so I doubt your idea is the direction they want to take BST. https://youtu.be/UPh-GOdyRiA?t=5108

    And it shouldn't because I don't want BST to be a SMN clone. We already have enough jobs that feel homogenized. Anyway, SMN is going at a better direction these days, and I assure you the backlash for the lack of egi glamour isn't "huge", lol. BST would fare better with that feature since all they have going is collecting random creatures like they're Pokemon.
