New Summon Monster Timers

[Coldin]

Great change guys. It's a nice step to making summons much more valuable as a spell to keep around. The new ability for summoned monsters to teleport to a players location is great too.

I only noticed a couple problems with the new changes. Monsters summoned with scrolls seem to keep their old cooldowns, as well as locking out other summons. The Iron Companion summons do this as well, staying on their old 5 minute cooldowns and durations.

I'm hesitant to call these bugs, but I do think it would be nice if both could get the longer 10 minute duration, if not the short cooldown.

I'd say bug report them all.

Great change on the summon monster! I am a BIG fan!

I didn't try scrolls but the memmed spell seemed to work great. Did it run off and die? NP, summon another! Did it get stuck or doing something else wacky? NP, summon another!

This is a long time coming.

So... when do we get our summon monster bar like the Hirelings?

In a related note,

"Summoning a second creature will banish your first creature back to its home plane.

Has anyone tested this with clicky summons? i.e. are the days of having a pair of earth elementals at your disposal over?
