Evaluation

Pros

• Resilient against physical damage.
• Can remove enchantments.
• Can destroy summoned creatures very fast with Banishing Strike.
• Can inflict burning and daze.
• Has adrenaline management.
• Has an energy management skill.
• Has 2 self-healing skills.
• Can remove hexes from himself.

Cons

• He has 2 teardown skills and only 1 feeder with a recharge of 10 seconds, because of this Pious Assault and Pious Restoration very often don't meet their requirements.
• This also reduces his ability to deal AoE damage greatly.
• Dispite the large adrenaline management he has only 1 adrenaline skill.
• Lacks an IAS.
• His build has not been properly updated since the dervish update.

Notes

• The level of the summons will be the same as the summoner's actual level (it will not be increased by Journey to the North or Sunspear Battle Call).
