Summoner (PSO2)

A class that fights by summoning pets. They demonstrate a wide range of strengths though.
Class Weapon Overview
Tacts
A small baton used to control Pets. Unlike most other weapons, Tacts bear several unique properties. Tacts are largely useless as actual weapons, only capable of inflicting a pitifully weak Striking attack in point-blank range that restores no PP. Instead, Pets are bound to Tacts and are summoned while your Tact is out. Pets take the place of weaponry for Summoner, armed with their own Photon Arts and attacks as well.
Gunslash
These are universal weapons for all classes, which can switch between striking attacks that scale off of 
S-Atk and shooting attacks that scale off of 
R-Atk.
Pet Overview
Summoner is capable of binding Pets, creatures that the Summoner commands to battle, to their Tacts as their primary method of combat.
Wanda/Jinga
A wolf/dog-like Pet that specializes in area-of-effect damage. Has high stats overall and capable of taking down large crowds of enemies in short time. Their main appeal is their utility with knockdown, stun, damage-over-time, and wide area Photon Arts. A Wanda can evolve to Jinga if the proper Egg is acquired. Jinga Assault will become more powerful, with wider range, allowing it to be used as a low-cost Trim Stab.
Trim/Aero
A falcon-like Pet that specializes in single target combat. Has significantly lower HP than other Pets, making it rather fragile. Their main appeal is their high-powered Photon Arts and overall ease of use. A Trim can evolve to an Aero if the proper Egg is acquired. Aero Spiral will become more powerful with increased power and range.
Cery/Popple
A Pet that specializes in ranged attack and support. Stays next to the player and have respectable defense. Their main appeal is their long-range Photon Arts that has a variety of functions, that is knockdown homing attack, area damage-over-time, weakening an enemy's attack, and a small area suction. A Cery can evolve to a Popple if the proper Egg is acquired. Popple Splode will become more powerful as it is chargeable and hits a wider area.
Maron
A Pet centered around self-destruct. Compared to Melon, Maron has a significantly higher HP but lower defenses. Their main appeal is their ludicrously powerful self-destruct attack, which can be powered up by letting them take hit until they become big, blinking, with flames spewing from them. Maron also has utility Photon Arts, that is a high accuracy homing attack, a powerful damage-over-time, and shielding. Their area-of-attacks are rudimentary, however.
Melon
A Pet centered with a self-destruct. Compared to Maron, Melon has higher defenses but significantly lower HP. Its self-destruct attack is similar to Maron, but can be thrown repeatedly, much like throwing a yo-yo. Only when the throwing stops, will they die.
Viola
A purple poodle-like Pet specialized in taking heat. Has higher HP and relatively higher attack than Wanda, but also relatively lower defense. Their Photon Arts is very similar to a Wanda, but Viola has a shorter area attack. Their main appeal is their increased PP gain from normal attacks, form change, which increases their ability to draw enemy attention and significantly increase the damage of their other Photon Arts. However, PP regeneration will be a lot slower, as will their Photon Arts animation.
Synchro
A humanoid fox-like Pet specialized in efficiency. Their Photon Arts are PP efficient close-range attacks, with only one Photon Attack acts as an approach. Despite this, Synchro is one of the least defensive. Their main appeal is their of method of chaining Photon Arts that will cause them to build up power for Geki. A common tactic is using two alternating attacks until the player glows, indicating a maximum power for Geki. However, player cannot move while doing a combo or else the combo might break.
Redran
A small dragon-like Pet specialized in ranged damage and multi-target enemies. They have a very low defense stat, but among the highest attack. Their Photon Arts are mostly ranged attack with different usage, that is homing focused attack, homing multi-target attack, area damage-over-time, a small area suction, and an extremely efficient close-ranged knockdown attack. Although counterintuitive, the knockdown attack Slash is the recall skill.
Rappy
A Rappy Pet. A well-rounded Pet that covers multiple bases with its plethora of attack and support-based Photon Arts.
