I have noticed that a certain spider companion got itself an extra kick with the implementation of the new spider behavior of climbing in and out of the combat, what seemed really, really cool.

It made me think that it would be awesome if the Spider Summoning Theme got the same change (think of a cultist sorc with a bunch of spiders disappearing from the battle and then returning somewhere else over enemies they had decided to come upon!).

Another idea I have got was for the Lights Summoning Theme. It might be interesting to give the globes of light the power of phasing towards the enemy, somewhat akin Magic Eaters and Phase Spiders.

And last, but not least, the same ability could be given to the elemental themes (air puffing out and it, fire turning to and coming from ash, water splashing in and out and earth crumbling and emerging from the ground).
