As a side issue related to summons in general:
Witches need some sort of minion that can be summoned that is as good as a zombie but does not require a corpse to raise it to help deal with the boss fights where there
are NO corpses in the area. Whats up with that?
Skeletons are useless (I've not tested since the new patch however) and move too slow. I determined that some weeks ago. Waste of a skill slot for a witch. REdo from start please.
Spam summon zombies ON the boss. They should block the boss form advancing and if you summon them fast enough the boss (unless they spam AoE) shiould have trouble taking them down as fast as you summon.


Not sure if you meant to show how this could be abused, but....

You could only do this until you ran out of mana.

Most Bosses that you would need to do this run right through the minions to attack the caster.

I dont figure they would allow us to have as many NON-Corpse minions in any event, and the Skeletons drop like flies on most Bosses.

Agreed. They ran after something close and attacked it, if there was something close to them again, they would run after it as well.

I noticed last night, with only 3 Zombies, they still did this.

But, we were fighting Alira's Humanoid mobs, and on several occasions, the minions would beat the mob within millisecs of his life, then just run off after another mob.

WTF?!?!? Not only do I have to chase them around to get them back, but now they abandon me in mid fight for CAKE!!! They just leave me the hard outer shells and suck the rest of the filling out?!?!?!
