SMN/RDM problem

[Tomoh]

Yes, I know that WHM is THE support job for SMN. And yes, Sheila pointed this out clearly in her FAQ. I've subbed RDM since my WHM is LV1. And no, I don't have the time to level up my WHM at the moment.

Well, I got to SMN 20 last night. So far, it is all non-stop Cure 1, as expected. I am forseeing a problem with RDM sub at LV22 since that is when a WHM sub can use Cure 2. RDM sub can't use Cure 2 until LV28. I have to keep hoping that a WHM or a RDM is in my PT or at least other jobs with WHM sub to use Cure 2. I'll level SMN to 25 so that I can use Blinkga and be useful. I hope that the new version-up is a good one for SMNs. When I finally decide to level WHM, I will have had great practice run

tomo later on I will explain good things about smn/rdm.

MYTH: you are not a cure tank..

any summoner who only uses mp for cure snot livin gto full potential. seriously..
when i wake up ill explain it some .

to me a BAD smn is a cure tank.
We are so much more and can do much more..even though we need a good fizx^^

Wow, you are giving me hope. The thing is, when there is no WHM in a PT, I need to Cure all the time. Most of the PTs I have been in have had no WHM so I had to focus on being a Cure Tank. I haven't complained since the Jp PTs that I have been in have been efficient in Kokoroka and Quifim. Hurry up and wake up

I remember playing with one summoner around lvl 28, she was our only 'healer', but thanks to her summons abilities she almost never needed to heal us... The group buffs are awesome, and the summons can do respectable damage too (and as I understand it the avatars hate is seperate from the summoner's which is nice). That's what I've observed from my limited experience partying with summoners. Summoner = #1 support unit if done right.
