@tazarbill Because the AI will generally just spam them if not capped

Just curious why the AI is not allowed to summon more tier 4?

Same here, I only play occasionally with friends, but almost allways competitive (since the AI is a walkover)

Well, I'm always up for some new twists on how the game plays!

Would you like to see my unlisted mods? Most of my major mods aren't listed, and you may find them interesting.

Only the occasional play with a friend of mine. So far, always been coop against AI.

A question for you, Daverin. Do you do multiplayer? If so, do you prefer cooperative or competitive?

Ya know, glutton works pretty well. Even with the blight part, like you said, it still can thematically fit. And it certainly otherwise is statistically a good fit.

The Earth Element primarily deals with solid material, connecting itself to solid matter. On the other hand, many games and fantasy worlds tend to lump earth and acid together, with poison an venom remaining a blighting element. With this idea in mind, The glutton may be a valid Earth summon. I do like your idea of the Phoenix and the Bone Dragon. Best of all, since they are currently secret avatar spells, I will not need to do much work to add these.

So actually, due to another thought of mine... por que no los dos? Currently, 3 of the 4 elements have two tier 4s. Destruction, I think, could be a good place to allow for summoning a bone dragon, who I am sure plenty of "classic ebil" necromancer players would love to have easier access to, and probably is within the same range as the other double summons. I could definitely understand if you feel that the Golden Dragon in particular is enough, but if you wanted to go for two summons per spec, I bet a GD and a Phoenix is a good pair.

Only problem is I cannot think of a good second Earth summon for the life of me...
