Scratched_back said:For those of you using a familiar:
1) How often do you use it to good effect?
2) Could this effect be replicated by other means?
3) Do you find yourself going out of your way to protect your familiar?
4) To the point, could you get along just fine without it?
Cheers all.
Brekki said:I have an lvl 30 mage with only 5 true wizardlvls and no prc's that add to the familiar's effectiveness, but still I use it a lot. Because I'm a full loremaster I've got UMD maxed out, so my familiar uses all kinds of wands/staffs/scroll. It's very nice to keep some boosting spells on him, so I don't have to cast them myself (with imbue familiar with spell ability (T&B) / contingency / improved contingency (T&B) / symbul's spell matrix/sequencer (MaF/PgtF)).

1. every game
2. maybe a 3.0 type double stacking haste effect
3. yep, he's in a familiar pocket (spell from T&B), during my initative I get him out (free action), he does his stuff, and gets back in (free action)
4. probably not ... always nice to have a small creature with a few heal / true ressurrection scrolls
