Thread: Is anyone else concerned about 6.0 Summoner?

Visually it's awesome, mechanically I'd have to wait and see. I don't think there is anything wrong with worrying though. Personally that DoTs are gone is fine, but I also didn't really care to see them gone either, it was mostly a visual concept that I believe they could have achieved with or without them.

Hopefully however this shift is because they believe they've not only done something visually appetizing but also mechanically. In which case double hurray. I do hope carbuncle does something, or.. something.. around those egi lines.. not because I like egi but because watching a little thing stand around and do absolutely nothing just seems a bit weird lol. Maybe they brought back some of the autonomy they had originally (they sort of auto cast stuff unless you told them not to). So for rewording, not a desire to see Egi (I'm fine either way, though I like demi, and I love the visual vibe of 6.0 SMN so far a lot more than all things current), just that a thing standing around apparently doing nothing is a little odd (and maybe I was blind but carby looked like they were twiddling their toes).

On visuals alone I'm super excited and I think FINALLY REALL SUMMONS, TAKE THAT WoW WARLOCK! lol. But mechanically I'd like to try it before commenting. I am capable of split opinion, to much of the potential confusion of others lol..., like I thought the very original SMN (ARR) was one of the most fun to play but just had a really reaaaallly bad "FF Summoner" presence. (Little is just pure one interpretation).


Here's to hopefully summoner both being an amazing visual treat and mechanically a blast to also play!!
