SMNs also are WHMs

What the heck have you smoked? Summoners are no white mages? because in FFXI mostly all summoners used white mage as a subjob does not mean they are white mages or healers?

Summoners itself have no healing skills at all. The arcanist in FFXIV is going to be an enfeebler... he has skills like slow, poison etc.. so really nothing to do with WHM.. nor in the past ff series Summoners havent been healers or white mages either..

and we know how much people hated the idea of being a healer on SMN.

what has this to do with permanent pets? nothing at all..

The arcanist will be an enfeebling caster besides controlling and commanding the pet itself.. so it wont be any healer at all. nor the summoner in AION was a healer..

so why a summoner should be like in FFXI? it dont have to.. a permanent pet does not mean that he has to be a secondary healer.

It can be a pet class w/o the need to have the avatar out 24/7.

and why not? i want to have a damn pet-class... and not an other black mage in form of a summoner with one-hit attack spells
