Summoner Skills

[Kosh]

I couldn't fit my chart into any of the posts so I decided to list the skills for each job seperately for all to see. This info was obtained from the Japanese site www.ausystem.org. I used to always wonder about this info and I've seen many others ask as well. Hope it helps.

GOOD :biggrin: that summoners get an A for summoning, why not A+? there is no a+?:confused:

[Rico]

From the looks of it Kosh these aren't "skills" these look like weapon skills to me...

[EliteYuna]

but but that doesnt make SENSE!!!!!!!!!! Who gets an A+ on Summon? i mean shouldn't the summoners get A+? Maybe you have to be a High Summoner, to get A+ hmmmmmmmm hidden class.............

Well it was probaly a mistake Kosh did if its not.. well then sub job's support Sumon skills to make it a threat.

Summoners not getting an A+ is hardly an issue, hehe... A's good enough.

I mean, look at bards: They have C in Singing and both instrument types. They're the only job that can use instruments <^.->

[Crow]

Yeah, A is fine for me. Using this system(E is lowest apparently, A-D have 3 ranks each), that's the same thing as a 12 out of 13. Summoners' 1-h staff skill is surprisingly low... Although it's funny that the Paladin seems to be best in 2-h staff skills.

*snicker* Poor bards... :rolleyes:

[EliteYuna]

Then maybe thats another hidden job.....for the bards since they dont A+ there singing and Instruments, maybe upgrade is Dancer or Singer hidden jobs hmmmmmmm :spin:

[Rico]

There are no hidden jobs in FFXI not every job is perfect.

[Kosh]

Cobalt, you took the words right out of my mouth. Thank you.

Crow, I agree that seems a little weird about Paladin 2-h staff skill. It seems like a Monk weapon to me...

Mr Gamer,
From the looks of it Kosh these aren't "skills" these look like weapon skills to me...

What are you talking about? :confused: :confused: :confused:

Weapon skills ARE skills! Oh and you are telling me that skills like evade, holy magic or singing are all weapon skills???

I'm not flaming on you but your post just didn't make any sense at all.

Also, the letter grade represents a skill level number CAP. So, a summoner with an "A" might have a 200 skill instead of 212 (if it was A+). Maybe they didn't feel the summons needed that extra power and were strong enough with a regular "A" rating. That's probably why Bards only have a "C" for singing and instruments, that 175 skill is high enough and they would be too powerful if their singing skill was 212 or something.

NOTE: I'm just throwing numbers out for example (that's why I didn't mention job levels). The skill level number cap changes every level. I'm just using 200, 212 and 175 as examples.
