[Perdition]

I actually agree with the above sentiment. GS is inherently broken in a game like this. The sanity testing grind is the biggest thing keeping the class in check. If it were very accessible to have 12 level 60 goons things would get real stupid real fast.

I'm going to be a bit blunt here for the two dolts not taking their hate boners somewhere else.

First, fighting a summoner is an interference shell away, there's one.

Second, interference the status, or doing stuff that'll allow their pools of FP to not easily recover when they summon storm.

Third, keep your hate to a minimum as this isn't what this post is about, given the changes with exp grind in general.

That being said, and attempting to bring this whole point back, is simple, yes. I do agree that youkai should have some degree of benefit from full clear bonuses, I thought they did previously, but I could be wrong. As long as you keep said youkai summoned so they can reap in the benefits of the dungeon. Because while massaging is fine for friendship and some exp gain, the time between CD of massaging makes things tick down slower.

No one is 'hating' summoner. But apparently you lack reading comprehension so I'll try and say it more clearly so that you can maybe understand the point. Saying something broken isn't the same thing as hating on it. Objectively speaking, GS is much stronger than other options. Summoner is one of my favorite classes.

Now with that out of the way. "Fighting a summoner is an interference shell away" Ah yes, the great argument of 'just be Magic Gunner'. Even then, arguably the strongest part of summoner isn't the youkai swarm but the fact you have 12 passives and a bunch of utility that you can install for any given situation.

Anyway, the speed at which one is able to get youkai to 60 is right where it needs to be.
