Thread: Fix Summoner Once and For All in 6.0 Please!

Always loved the SMN job.

But FF14 SMN feels more like playing a discount-warlock from WoW with identity issues.

Got my egis glamoured since carbuncle look more.. 'whole' and not just floating crystals.

But our pet is essentially just a dot made alive, with 2 pet abilities that feels detached from its own petbar. And only used to get insta-cast Ruin 4.
Not to mention that they feel clunky

2 dots in form of diseases (Confused /stare)

The 2 stances feels miss-matched in the sense;
- DWT doesnt summon bahamut or morph existing spells into a more bahamut like theme, but phoenix stance does all of the above +a buff. Feels rather odd, and like playing a job that has been made with glue, sciccors and duck tape. No offense to the devs.

I don't think I need to mention our whole rotation, with a length that makes LB3 build-up seem fast.

I hope they make DWT summon bahamut the same way when we summon phoenix and morph existing spells into what would match bahamut theme-wise.
.. and scrap the rest in turn of more summon-themed spells, that change depending on what summon/egi is active at the moment,
Also, for the love of the gods give us some new summons please. Wouldnt mind if we had garuda/leviathan as our aoe dps, ifrit/ramuh as single target, and titan/shiva as support pets with more focus on buff/debuff.

Like stated before, aetherflow feels totally detached from the job, and only used to Fester our 2 dots.

all in all, it feels like summoner atm is a job that has been the last one to draw spells from the hat of stuff.

just my 2 gil........ wait what? we got an actual healing spell..?? /Confused
