Summoner
Tri-Bind has been replaced with Summon IV. Tri-Bind was never a terribly wonderful spell, but now that Sleep is cross-classable from Thaumaturge, Tri-Bind is almost entirely useless.
Cross-class actions see several useful DoT effects added to the mix. Included is Archer's Venomous Bite, whose damage will scale based on INT when used by a Summoner. The names of the Arcanist skill, Bane, and the Garuda-egi skill, Contagion, have been swapped. Summon IV calls Leviathan-egi, a support type pet. Gameplay at level 60 has changed a bit, to allow for more flexibility and more frequent use of Death Flare. Aethertrail Attunement now lasts indefinitely, similar to Aetherflow. Aetherflow can now be stacked up to 5. The action Aetherflow still only grants 3 Aetherflow stacks. Aethertrail Attunement can now be stacked up to 5. Additionally, several other actions now produce Aethertrail Attunement. Dreadwyrm Trance now requires 5 Aethertrail Attunement stacks to activate but has been buffed considerably, reducing Ruin III's MP cost, increasing magic damage, halting timers on DoT effects, and reducing the recasts of Rouse, Spur, and Enkindle if they are currently in cooldown. Using Death Flare now requires 3 Aethertrail Attunement stacks to cast instead of requiring Dreadwyrm Trance. Death Flare now has a 10% chance of granting the Summoner one Aetherflow stack for each enemy it fells.
