    Arcanist/ Summoner the new Hybrid class?

    As well all know Yoshida took dev team and made them play popular MMOs like World of Warcraft. Previous Arcanist/Summoner leak thread got me thinking about summoner as a hybrid class like the druid in WoW. With the new information on carby being able to tank or cast got me excited. Maybe SE read my post? ha.

    My previous thoughts

    Just an example (and I know that primals are off the list)

    Carbuncle/Resto=Healer
    Titan/Feral=Tanking
    Shiva/Boomkin=Caster
    and so on.

    Put a restriction like a 1min Cooldown for casting a avatar. Summoner would be like a Swiss army knife where you can do a little of everything but not as good as casters/melee/tanks.
    My ideas now for the class, with enfeeble spells, will give the caster a lot of versatility that correlates with the summoned pet . Imagine with me if you had Titan out as a Tank. Titan would have his on personal actions and your job as the summoner is to use enfeeble spells to debuff/enhance Titans actions. For example:

    Summoner cast enfeeble spell to weaken the mob to earthen spells. Titans would use "quake" to grab all aggro around him. The enmity would be greater for Titan for the enfeeble spell you casted on the mob.

    So, for each summoned pet you had out you would have to switch up your actions for that said summon. I dunno its an idea.

    What do you all think?
