Summoner: if summoner is the first new class to be released what would you expect?

[Duelle]

Elemental/Spiritual/Arcane seems to me to be able to encapsulate everything in FF magic. The only problem then is the system, since Summoning would theoretically come from any of those sources -- live creatures and primals from CNJ, spirits and non-elemental / archetypal eidolens from THM, and elementals and anomalies from Arcanist.

We're going to have to choose one aspect and stick with it. Otherwise you run the risk of watering down the job. I think a good number of people favor avatars or primals over anything else. It's why people want the recurring avatars like Ramuh and Shiva and such. At the same time, I hope people are aware that the pool of usable summons is going to be smaller with gameplay design and the open world primals per XIV's storyline.
