Scholar... SAY WHUT?

[Elexia]

And I agree, SCH's class should not be able to access a summon... it's a bit too far out of the SCH capabilities in my opinion, even though in other games they have been able to access dark, elemental, healing (etc) magics to some degree, summoning just makes me weary.

Erm, in FFXI Scholars are capable of summoning but not in the traditional sense (and was only tied toward the lore/NPCs.) They summoned debuff tubes which gives off a Paralyze/Slow/Bind/Silence aura that affects anything in it's range. SE later gave players the ability to buy a temporary version of them during campaign battles.

So summoning isn't out of their reach perse, it just wouldn't be in the traditional sense, it would be more like XIV 1.0's Arcanist if anything.
