I was disappointed when I acquired my 2nd summoning spell for balance, Spectral Minion.
Not only is it still a rank 1 minion, it seems that the spectral minion can only cast 3 pip spells period. Even then they RARELY cast 3 pip spells.. out of all the times I've used one thus far the only element to cast such was my Lightning minion. I've had Fire Elementals with full pips that would cast nothing more than Fire Cat or Fire Elf..
If I might be so bold to say.. Spectral Minion seems to be LESS effective than Mander Minion and there is a 20 level difference between the two spells!
I'd like Spectral Minions to at least cast 4 pip cost spells and use them more strategically, maybe even have a slightly broader range of spells to cast as well.. because right now they only have a trap, shield, and the first three levels of spells for attacks for their element type.
