"Summoned" Creatures

[Troxx]

Outside of the obvious elemental mobs, does anyone have a list of what creatures constitute "summoned" and are thus sensitive to this line of nukes

[loramin]

The wiki didn't have a category for this, so I added one. I also added all of the existing "elemental" mobs I could find to it (since I'm pretty sure all elementals count as summoned): http://wiki.project1999.com/Category:Summoned.

There might well be other non-elemental mobs that still count as summoned though, and if so they'll need to have that category added to their wiki page.

Flighty fiends in the Hole. A lot of imp creatures i would wager.

[Sun Apr 08 09:10:59 2018] A shadowed man tries to hit YOU, but misses!
[Sun Apr 08 09:11:01 2018] a shadowed man was hit by non-melee for 41 points of damage.

so shadowed men are summoned? any other not-obvious mobs with a summoned tag on them?

I've added the shadowed men and the Burning Woods hornets to the Summoned category in the wiki.

TIL you can use ward summoned on Kozz

Shadowed men as summoned mobs actually WOKES me up. I always thought they were some phantasmal remnant of Combine.

I think the Titanium client might be making false claims on some of these. How is a BW hornet "summoned"? What summoned it?

Kunark Prima Strategy guide fluff text is acceptable if available.

Never tested anti-summoned spells out on them personally, but I've heard from many about the tactic. It's just one of the quirks of the game that was probably unintended but left in because of everything else that required attention back then. For what it's worth, all hornets were apparently changed to insects in a patch that is beyond the scope of Project1999, around some point in 2002.

There are reports that these, along with the cinder and ash hornets, are no longer considered summoned creatures.

I wouldsay yes, but why root/dot? You have summoned line of dd spells as a druid.

No way should a druid be root/dotting these guys. Hornets are one of the few mobs in the game that are summoned that aren't pets. Ensnare then kite with banish class spells...huge return for mana loss.

yes, difinatly use banish summond or the line of summond dd spells. and i have to laugh about the first post, 165wis at lvl 50..... thats horable, at lvl 50 you should easyly have 200, most druids i know are at lowest 195 at taht lvl, unless its half elf or human but thats still very low. Either way root dot is ok but in summond cases are spell makes up for that. Oh yea, a druid meeleing soulds like that druid has ahd a very hard life.....

These were impossible to me at lvl 43, so i stuck to cinders and ash hornets, kiting using expel summoned.
However, at 44 using Banish summoned (hits for 585 points) i didnt have much of a problem taking the Embers.

With any hornet, always snare, throw in a DoT and kite, blasting with anti summoned spells. Don't try to porcupine because they just hit way too hard. Soloing is always boring but i tried hornets with a partner and exp wasn't that great. I would recommend soloing only.
