Summoners II

[skjarl]

You wankers got my last summoners thread locked!!!

Anyway, after reading it I have two things to say.

1. I don't argue opinions. It's a waste of time.
2. I agree with Sandman on every point.

Thanks to everyone that chimed in. I learned some valuable things in between all that bickering. Some of you need to work on being kinder to others that you disagree with, though. It is, after all, just a niche video game (albeit an excellent and engaging one).

Sorry about your thread being locked, that was my fault mostly.
Thank you.

The reason threads are locked is to stop people from posting in them!

I think everyone already knows that, Jack.

I was implying that this thread shouldn't exist because it's just a continuation of the other thread

It exists because I wanted to thank those that positively contributed to the discussion and chide those that caused the previous thread to be locked. It's perfectly OK for me to do both of those things in a new thread. Anyone that carries on like before after the previous thread was locked is a fool and deserves what he/she gets from the moderators.

No, it's not. This subforum is called "dungeon crawling advice" not "being judgmental over the internet". In fact that's the reason the other thread was locked. Yiu shoukd convey your emotions in yiuf or ideally over pms

We'll have to agree to disagree then.

hes got a good point man. this shouldnt be in "dungeon crawling advice".

Then let me shift gears. Do folks think it's worth the danger to use summons that can potentially be hostile such as demons and scorpions at early levels? I personally avoid them because having enemies pop up behind your meat line can be catastrophic.

[Wahaha]

I think scorpions are great especially if you have something like a whip of elec to quickly kill off the one or two hostile ones.

[Siegurt]

Yeah, if you've got enough spellpower that hostile summons are small in number, then usually they'll be taken out pretty quickly by the large number of friendlies very quickly.

Typically their benefits outweigh their drawbacks, you just have to be careful not to use them when the results could kill you.
