> Ok Here is why I think conjurers suck and should basicaly be thrown out of the game or something similar, cause I hate them.
>
> 1) How much skill does it take to sit in the guild, conjure servitors till you get one that considers at hooded, then go out at start fights that the servitor mops up? I mean really, plus with a good familiar i.e. raven.... flyto TARGET; release; walk yer ass to TARGET, and BANG!

> 2) I summoned a conjurer once, thinking, Hey I'm buff, I'll just waste him while he's without his servitors, then to my suprise, the round after I summon him and initiate attacks, the servitors arrive and whoop ass. Now I was MANY rooms away, and the rest of his group didn't arrive until after I was dead, so how come these creatures get to walk so fast? plus you can't flee very well cause they track!

> 3) Seriously, I'd rather be PWK'd or Assassinated than have a conjie kill me, at least with PWK or assassinate I know they spent effort.... ie stalk, or just plain walking/summoning to me so they can get it off. With a conjurer all you have to have is patience... sit around, conjure, get a couple kick ass servitors with maga binding on, then kill everyone, No skill, just time. Plus, they don't even have to walk around... just send nightgaunts. Is horsepucky.

> 4) No difference in strategy. Get a water elemental, and one of those croaking demons, and your set. Walk up, use your 1 offensive spell, magic missile, hope that your servitors walk in before you take to much damage. Loot. Even if your going up against a good tank, and your servitors attacks don't hit, they can geyser and shit WAY before an invoker gets the spell.

> In closing I hate conjies, If I could think of a way to kill them all, I would, but I don't even know of any classes that can continuously put the beat down on a conjurer. Or even one that can get away real good, I mean nightgaunt is global summon. I bet Zorszaul wishes his summon worked as well, but then he really doesn't need the help.
