Does it strike anyone else as odd that we, being the premier DoT class of FF14, have ZERO interaction with our DoTs? I mean, we have one extension ability (contagion), and one nuke "based" on DoTs (fester...but thats really a stretch...all it requires is the existence of DoTs, not actually interacting with them).

What are your thoughts?
Please just no. I left monk because of people wanting them to be super complex, it is EXHAUSTING during raid nights.

If you think summoners are boring, you are not managing your pets correctly and letting them do what they want. A stand out summoner is one who manages his pets positions/abilities in raids.

As a raiding summoner, I say leave them alone.
