Summons On-Hit!

[granny]

We discussed it on IRC and everyone loved it (sic).

... the idea is a perk (put here a weak class, sorc maybe), kinda based on the masochist spell, where instead of getting buffs, you'd get summons coming from beatings. In order to make it less "broken" (pff, overzealous players), it could have a reduced chance of spawning a guardian-summon.

Hrm.

interesting idea. Not difficult to implement.. my concern would be how to stop player abuse of just lightly hitting the sorc to proc it repeatedly, then march on with an army.

Maybe chance/strength based on the damage taken or, only one active at a time

Well, the obvious thing is to not give them a very long duration. That way as they keep whacking the summoner the old ones are fading as the new ones phase in.

Suggestion noted, however whether this ever would be implemented or not is something that's in our whims and wishes of balance. It's been a thing that people have considered for years and yet there has not been any necessary or cool application for it - it's unlikely to happen for a perk that is open for everyone at the very least.
