why is it sound like so hard to confirm on the requirements? no good sos can be found??

the job requirement for blm, summoner, scholar and bard is already confirmed in game

My theory is there was a mix-up when people posted that Black Mage requires Archer. Notice the abbreviation for Archer is ARC. Maybe someone mistook it to mean ARCanist so some people put that in their website instead. Meaning it's originally supposed to be Archer but someone mistakenly input it as Arcanist.

okay sorry guys it might be archer because archer has more skills that a BLM can use. arcanist only 1 skill for BLM

Who among us already max out all classes? Is this a race? Hahaha. Siapa top ranker in terms of level?

TS, can you add all the symbol for class and job. Thanks

thats y! I tot ARC stand for Arcanist! then i trained to lv15 arcanist

Wrong.

Just unlocked SMN and SCH jobs last night. I will test each one and give it like a mini review later.

Sweet, I'm on my way to a summoner right now too. It seems like the coolest class to play at the moment for me.

My take:
Summoner is a well all round dps job and i feel the DoT dmg not really high until u get BioII(i'm currently level 38 atm) and once you get fester, your dmg will be much higher and keep Aetherflow on CD all the time.Also Bane is a nice Aoe dmg u get once u hit lvl 30 on Arcanist.

And for pets, Ifrit overall is a good dps pet, but u tend to overaggro the mobs that u're killing. Once you get Titan pet,it's get much more easier because Titan will hold aggro like no tomorrow,u can go all out dps on the mobs.

And for Scholar, hell yeah i love the fairy healing EoS so much! it's like having your own healing turret that u can stuck it anywhere and she will help with your healing much.

For now, summoner play will get more fun after u hit lvl 38 and for scholar, its really get much easier once you have Succor(Aoe heal) at level 35.Only gripe is that you dont have dispel ability only after u hit lvl 40.Have to suck to it up with more healing to counter it.

my take for summoner..in dps wise yea is kinda slow...not sure how smn fares behind against blm right now since there is no meters in the game (well there is but i lazy to use from outsource). imho there are still improvement require for smn class whereby this class has some issue on pet controls (coming from wow warlock).

Hope they can give us the capability of marco for our pet to atk as well as casting some pet skill. SMN is a class where u will be very busy for sure since there is so many buttons u need to smash and keep dots up all the time. I hope they can have an ability for summoner to apply instant 3 dots for opening such as warlocks soul burn + soul swap...well we do have aetherflow anyway..it do work like soul burn

overall...enjoy smn game style as well and hope it gets better (not to comment about the pets design yet ).

I think summoner deals pretty decent damage.. at higher levels just that i hate it during fate as most of ur dps rely on procs.. so i basically just tag enemies but if its a one man boss i feel my damage is pretty decent. Coz some individual mobs u can just pull it away from the tank and test ur damage how fast u kill it lol.

personally i dont really think their dmg can be comparable against blm in terms of on par but at least bit lower than them in terms of killing single monster but on boss i guess we should be able to do sustainable dmg to win against blm...the most important fact that our pet skill are under the same GCD with our other skill as well..basically when u casting Ruin. you wont be able to use ur pet ability which i dont think is a good design for us

Im actually playing scholar as main now.
realize that some skills u can use while ur channeling ur spells like the faeries basic heals im not sure much on summoner tho as i use them for lvling.
It could be something they will fix later so that you can use pet skills when ur channeling ur spells.
Is there a way I can set my pet not to auto cast spells?

there is an obey command (beside of Sic) where the pet will be using auto attack and wont use their skill until you do.

Yea but i want it to be constant lol coz i wanna set which skills to use all the time cant be click obey after every skill lol. coz like the pixie always simply spam the skills not at the right time. Especially the haste like spell.

not sure how you want it to work or how it works on your pixie..but for me i just press once the obey command and it will stop spamming those skill until i said so...except your pet is dead...each resummon need to click on the obey command again...and u cant set which skill to use all the time since this is the limitation of the pet system right now

oh lidat might be a bug for me coz for mine if i set obey but when i use the pixie to cast embrace like manual casting 1 time it auto switch to guard which i find damn annoying... mayb i should report it then.
