Sadly, this is how most feel about SMN. I think it's a good job with a really boring/weak play style. I don't mind it that much for boss fights or fights with multiple low-medium HP adds, but on ANYTHING that needs to die at any kind of reasonable speed I never want a SMN. When I queue up for AK and I want to do it in a timely manner and I have a SMN it almost always means that everything will be down to the wire, simply because their overall DPS is SO much lower. I don't have any problems with the job, just the poor design.
