Summoners don't have to actually fight the primal but the proximity to both the summoning and slaying of the primal energies enables them.
I don't think the Scholar job needs a -hell- of a lot of intelligence but they can't be dumbasses for sure. They could be the studious type, especially if they have familiarity with arcanima as arcanists do. From my understanding of the quests you got a marauder who helps decipher these old tomes on the arts. The faerie teaches you the most important ones.
Edit: I assume though with how er.. insular Ishgardians are, playing a dragoon of the knightly type essentially places your RP in the coerthas region much of the time. Unless you are in exile or some such. Or tracking heretics into the North Shroud.
