Summoner is definitely one of those classes that really made me question just what they thought they were doing in terms of its aesthetic and mechanical design. I finished the Shadowbringers MSQ as one and in retrospect? I wish I had done so as Black or Red Mage instead.

I understand why one would want to try it out after watching the Endwalker trailer, but those changes will not be in the game until December 3rd. Until then, the job will still be...what it is. A poison mage unworthy of being called a Summoner. In contrast, the Summoner of Endwalker is so on point that the team is literally giving us Rydia's (FFIV) Summoner clothes as tome gear, which speaks to the general feel most people have about the rework. SMN will at last be a Final Fantasy Summoner.
