Yeah the buffs are nice and at least smn is closer to rdm now in terms of dps but smn problems are mostly rotation problems. I fully admit after your last thread about the state of the casters I switched over to rdm for my group. I love it just because I get to choose when to use my burst windows. P2S has been much better since I made the switch and only wish smn had this same flexibility in its kit. Plus learning a new job has been really refreshing to boot XD Either way, I do hope in 6.1 we see some QoL changes to smn to help it in fights with downtime, etc. One quick solution I thought the devs could do just to help realign brust windows is give the demi summon button the 2nd charge. That way doing downtime you not forced to use baha or phy right before like in p2s and save up a 2nd demi during the downtime. Most it affects is the smn's opener where you open up with both baha and phy within the first 30secs of the fight. I don't know just a quick solution I thought of.
