Summoner
Currently under construction.

Introduction
This page is just to post up some data about my rediscovered love for SMN-- goals, gear set-ups, wishlist, and so on, as well as some general information and thoughts about my SMN.

I originally started leveling Summoner about a month before Level Sync was introduced. I already had all my avatars due to helping members of my linkshell get their's, and I didn't want any of the other prizes for beating the Prime Avatars so just got them to save for later.

Level Sync was introduced, and I was in an LS static from 37 - current, which leaves my Summoning Magic skill a tad behind cap, though I've started soloing on bombs in Ifrit's Cauldron, so my skill is quickly catching up.

Support Jobs
Currently I have four available support jobs:
 * [[Image:WHM.gif]] White Mage
 * [[Image:BLM.gif]] Black Mage
 * [[Image:RDM.gif]] Red Mage
 * [[Image:NIN.gif]] Ninja

In my never-ending quest to better my character (however slow progress may be >_>;), I wish to level the following sub jobs, either for their usefulness endgame, or just for fun:


 * [[Image:THF.gif]] Thief, because I recently decided that I hate farming with a gimp sub, and I've heard of the Sneak Attack > Spirit Taker fun that can be had.
 * [[Image:SCH.gif]] Scholar. Sublimation. 'Nuff said.
 * [[Image:SAM.gif]] Samurai, for super TP gain > Spirit Taker.

Merit Points
As I'm only at 52 now, my Summoner is not quite ready for specialisation, but here is what I propose to do.

Very much subject to change between now and whenever I hit 75.

Group 2

Grand Total General: Group 1 & 2: Grand Total:

Equipment
As a Summoner, gear choices were pretty simple up until level fifty-- pretty much just focus on MP. After 50, there's all your AF, plus some pretty neat JSE, called the Austere Robe Set that gives lots of bonuses.

I'm only at 52 now, so I still have quite a way to go in the way of choices and upgrades, but here is where my SMN stands now.

Staves
Will +1 them when I have the gil.





Clubs
Always have on on me.



Sea

 * Nashira Manteel Set:

Other

 * The entire set of HQ Elemental Staves
