Patch 1.22c Notes

[blumoon]

To me it sounds like there will be no summoning class (which is fine by me).

I'd probably agree in light of the new Primal system but I think too many clues point otherwise, at least for me. In the recent poll when asked for a new class, it uses avatars as one of the examples when mentioning a pet based class. Now that could have just been used as an example and me delving too deep into things or it could have pointed to a summoner-like class, if not a summoner itself. Also Yoshi says he wants to make FFXIV more FF-y, one of the staple classes of Final Fantasy since 3 is Summoner. So I think if not soon, eventually. At that point the Primal system may be tweaked or who knows what but it'll be fun when it finally gets here.
