Mummy Dust vs Dragon Knight

[Blystos Re]

I guess that's what you get for sitting on the fence...ya neut...

[Metis]

It was asked a few times, although somewhat off topic, the summons across the board have been tweaked. A lot of time was put in to try and make them suitable for their level. DK has been changed ie slaad casts fewer spells but they use more effective ones, balor had the 5 cause moderate wounds removed so they attack sooner, its a very tough line to keep to make them useful in pvm while pvp they should not be pure killing machines. I think I posted it somewhere but here is the scoop on DK vs mummy:

Mummy levels up with the caster while DK is set:

Mummy
pros:
Levels up
gets stronger
more feats
cons:
This route we CANNOT pick their feats or anything its going by bioware level up script

DK
pros:
build can be modified
specific spells can be chosen
skills can be set
feats can be chosen
cons:
build is set conjuration bonuses apply but it does not level with caster

So when you look at your summons performance look at it pvm and pvp if the ai (monster) was as smart as a player they wouldn't need so many hp, ac, immunities so like I said its a fine line to hold.

Summon duration also modified

Spell Level		Duration

Some of these may need further adjusting, no summons had anything removed or nerfed so if by some mistake I made something to strong expect to see it change.
