Smn Rework Suggestions After LL

[Thatusernameistaken]

So am I the only one who thinks the rework is fine? A LOT of people have suggested what we saw in the JAT and a lot of responses in this thread amount to "well yes, but actually no". As.a SMN player I don't have any issues with what I saw, except hoping the pet jank has been addressed.

The thing is, SMN is just one of those jobs that even SMN mains couldn’t agree on what we wanted. For a long time, I’ve seen final fantasy die hard fans sell the idea of an “nostalgic” SMN being the SMN we should have. We got that. But we also got the other side of SMN in there that I wanted. Just like rewd mentioned, it’s like they put a piece of every type of SMN people wanted while at the same time taking a lot. People like me got more excited at increased Bahamut skills while others got excited about the new rotation. Both sides are “meh” towards the part of SMN they don’t care for but excited at the same time xD.

It’s an odd time… and I feel for SMN mains that don’t like it all since it looks like the busyness of it isn’t really there with no more DOT management and other things. I’m all kinds of mixed feeling at the moment. Excited, concerned, confused and maybe even a bit annoyed lol.

Just an odd time for SMN .

What side of smn was ever DoT related... at all in ff series?

Summoner wasn't ever really a "pure" summoner, meaning they only summon and have access to no other abilities. Like, classic and iconic summoners throughout the franchise like Yuna, Rydia, Eiko and Garnet were more White mages and Black mages with the ability to occasionally summon. This new iteration is the closest the mainline franchise will have to a pure summoner. Technically, Dissidia and NT Yuna could be called pure in the same way 6.0 is but I digress.

I don´t know why ppl still compare this game to other FF titles. It´s an MMORPG and those work way different than solo games, even if FF´s lore is in it´s core. The FF games have evolved and changed their gameplay over the years too, so...

I was replying to the person who said something about same as older ff smn, just forgot to quote. I know very well it's an mmo and will be different obviously. Although I think they can and should first and foremost keep the base idea and traditions to all the jobs related to the series. And yes ff has changed game play over the years, but summoning has mostly still been the same, only difference is they spend more time on the battlefield for a longer period of time before doing their signature burst moves.
