FFXIV Summoner (SMN) Cross-class skills discussion

Summary
Summoners use skills from: Archer and Thaumaturge.
Add Swiftcast to your repertoire! Using this for Shadowflare is probably your default skills discussion
Raging Strikes – learn to time this well in raids! Combine it withContagion for PROFIT!
Quelling Strikes, while not super important for SMN… use it at the start of fights! Also on adds that spawn!

skills discussion:Raging Strikes: A low level skill, but a damn good one. Learn to maximize this in raids!
Ice II: A weak potency AoE attack, with a bind effect. Only useful for around 3+ enemies.

Better than spamming RUIN!
Surecast: You’re only equipping this since you can’t really use anything else. While
borderline useless – it has the rare application.

Swiftcast: THE BEST CROSS-CLASS SKILL of all time. For summoner, using this with
Resurrection is a great addition to any raidgroup.

Quelling Strikes: Make it a habit to use this on pull and on newly spawned adds in raids.
Your tanks will thank you.

Hawk’s Eye: Absolutely useless to you. +DEX and +Accuracy (physical) have zero practical
use for you.
