XP farming? I guess some people just want an MMO in Tabletop's clothing.
If you're all fans of computer RPGs with XP farming then yes, it may amuse your group from a flavor standpoint to say you did this weird kill your summons for XP "exploit", but actually playing it out sounds ludicrous. Just saying you just spent all your downtime practicing destruction magic on your own zombies and getting some XP would be fine if XP gaining downtime activity is a thing in your group. But then just saying you spent it practicing spells should merit the same treatment. Grinding through the actual repetitive spellcasting in actual table time is meaningless, unless maybe there are some sort of complications.
