do i look like colonel sanders?
   

can anyone clue me in on why my summon spell creates a chicken? useless...

i got a high casting(65, 75 enhanced with a special thingy i wont spoil) but 11 intelligence.

im near the end of the game too. is there only certain places that summon will bring about something more powerful than a chicken?

or is it just a joke, the whole summon spell.....

Maybe it has to do with the location you are trying to summon? I never used the spell during the game, but just to check I loaded up my save game right before the final battle and it summoned a demon. dang thing turned on me too. I think will go into town and try it and see if I get chickens.

It depends on your level (not sure if it's real level or how much casting you invested, or a combination of both).

I believe.. from what I read and what I've experienced that your casting level has to be 90 or above to summon anything other than a chicken. But the demon you summon will turn on you any way... unless you invest more mana to command it.. but then command it to do what? You dont gain XP from summoning and killing it... You do gain 20 XP's for summoning and killing the undead though.. but just make sure you have some stakes around to stake them.. because they will wander around where ever you summon them.. and if it's in the city.. LOL.. well that would be amusing..

I wish it would progress beyond chickens too. Something like this:
Casting Level Creature Created
30 Chicken
40 Rat
50 Spider
60 Dog
70 Goblin
80 Troll
90 Demon

Maybe in a future patch.

Good people of RPGdot!

Be optimistic! Chicken is more than nothing.
...and a perfect good source also.

U spoken from my heart...
...but there is a simplyer way to creating food:
Go to the human outpost.
In the yard U must chant the fire wall spell, and if U didn't miss the animals, U can eat them.
