This is the situation. I use summons all the time, nonstop. They are always out and doing something, so it's hard for me to pin point the exact time that this is occurring. That said, Twice now I have found myself in a situation where all of my summons are downgraded a full caster level, but cost half the point cost of their original value. [INDENT]Norm: Summon I has 15hp and costs 15 points.
Bugged: Summon I has 15hp and costs 10 points.

Norm: Summon III has 57hp and costs 25 points.
Bugged: Summon III has 26hp and costs 17 points.

Norm: Summon IV has 78hp and costs 35 points.
Bugged: Summon IV has 57hp and costs (25) points.
[/INDENT]The first time this occurred I was within Wyldwater going into the Mouth of Wyldwater. Im not sure exactly when, but I noticed it within the cave to the SE of the map. I didn't have long to ponder on it however, because Howland had a reset inbound. After the reset everything worked normally so I paid it no mind.

Now, just within the last hour, this occurred again. It happened somewhere within the Unyeilding pass, moving towards Nebezzdos. We stopped and turned before going into the Undermount, however. I had thought this might have been an overall effect applied to to Maiden's withering lands. When we got back into the desert, I rechecked and was still bugged. Relogging did nothing. Resting and clearing all my spell slots did nothing. I'm not sure what is going on, figured I'd toss this up here and someone can let me know.

I have a feeling it might have something to do with Portal domains summon III, but I really don't know.

Howlando

Peculiar.

Don't recall how portal domain works, is there a player tool you use? Is it possible the summons are reduced in strength this way after using any kind of special power?

There's another bug with the darkness domain where if you use the ultravision playertool your summons switch from shadow to default. I wonder if this could be related.

No player tool.

The Portal domain gives you Summon III on the list of summon II spells. But it's worked fine for the last week+ Ive been using it. I have only have problems within the last 24 hours; and only after being online and using the summons.

That said there doesn't seem to be any specific trigger, On the first event it happened before I went through my spells once, but on the second time... I burned through my entire summon list 7-8 times before it hit me (after hours of intensive use). I'd rather deal with the screwed up levels then have it taken away though >_>;; Just saying.


Note:: Using the normal level 2 Summon II, summons a regular summon I elemental. I've somehow gained -1 summoning theme in general.

For some reason, this just fixed itself after a few more rests. O.o Not sure what's going on.
