Totem Summons

Post by Glowing Mushroom » Thu Oct 02, 2014 3:10 pm

As I understand it, the Epic Dragon Knight if summoned by a Totem Druid will come forth as the Totem's respective animal.

I believe it is safe to say that for many people, if they want to summon a dragon, they want to summon a ~dragon. If my first statement is true it would be nice to revert it back to the default conjuration.

In fact, could Totem Druids not also have the option to summon their Totem animal or the default one? Perhaps the same could go for their Polymorph forms?

My thoughts ^^

I would have to disagree. Totem druids are so aligned with their totem animal that they only turn into the animal and summon it. I could see the argument for the dragon knight, but all other summons, I think should be the totem animal. If you want to summon and turn into different forms then don't take totem... simple as that. Why there is a option :D. Totem druid is a huge RP investment, and brings alot or restrictions to combat, as well as RP, but opens many new doors for RP. Just make your druid not a totem druid if you want to have the options :D

I don't know about you, but I think that a flying, fire breathing Badger would be awesome.

I s'pose you are right. But the Dragons, still, I'd want to be Dragons. Although as The Rambling Midget said, a great flaming animal that breathes fire could be fun. Perhaps a giant snail with said powers and a great "Noot" as he roars.
