Arcanist and Summoner artwork

[Bowen]

This is Archanist:
Main weapon is "Book", going to be a pet class, and will most probably make it at ARR launch.
Pros:

• Puts DOTs on enemies
• Debuffs enemies

There are 2 types of Carbuncle: Tank-type, Caster-type (they're going to be different visually)

I figured as much. As for the bold: God I hope so. We have to have something to play with.

And Summoner (and this is his AF gear):
Will use the powers of the primals? or gets his power from their essence? Didn't get it >.<;;. Will not make it at launch, but will be in one of the earlier patches after launch.
Compared to Archanist:

• More pet types
• More powerful pet actions

Summoner is going to summon a piece of the Primals, similar to FFXI. We aren't really summoning them, that's what we get to do with the Free Company Summon System. Instead, we are summoning their essense. A fraction of themselves.

So, Arcanist will use Carbuncle for DoT, Tanking, and Casting purposes. Summoner, on the other hand, will be able to summon the essense of the Primals. Makes sense.
