Familier

[chakras1]

<DIV>I just got lvl 20 and see that i can now summon a familier (cat), can any one explain what the advantages i get as i summoned it and could not see a single advantage to having it.  I could understand if it gave you stat increases or even basic fighting  but it does nothing.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Unless i am missng something it is pointless, can someone confirm that or advise what the advantages are.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Cheers</DIV>

<DIV>As stated, the cat is just a fun spell; all classes get them at certain levels.  </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>However, also at 20, if you purchased the KOS expansion, you can start earning achievement experience, with which to purchase achievement points (see your skills window for details).  The first achievement you will get is the ability to summon a different type of familiar, and that one will give you various combat advantages depending on what type you get (and this depends on what weapon you are using).  Open your skills window (L) and mouse over your first achievement to see the details.</DIV>

The cat (and other wizard fluff familiers) will fight back if attacked first - so if you are fighting something that AEs, you might get a couple of extra hits.<p>Message Edited by Daenae on <span class=date_text>06-09-2006</span> <span class=time_text>03:51 PM</span>
