[QUOTE="Sindenky, post: 5199473, member: 89977"] In my current campaign I'm playing a wizard that is built around crafting magic items and Golems. But when i found Effigy they seem better than golems due to the fact that i have a wider verity of options available than i do with Golems. Now the way I pan to do it is like a summoner. I build all my creations in a hidden place(Currently planed to be between dimensions) and then i put a seal on them. Make the same seal on a scroll and be able to summon the Effigy or golem to me. I plan to do this with some variant of a transportation spell. Now what i need is ideas. I want several different Effigy or golems to chose from. Some with giant shields to act as...well...a shield. And some to smash. Ones that can fly and ones that can swim. But the thing is i dont know what exactly to use. The effigy template drops all ability's and feats that don't translate to attacking(like Pounce, Imp. grab, Weapon focus, ext.). So that weakens the effigy to an extent. I have thought of a Rhino for charging and doing mass damage, but then i also thought of a bullet. A Tiger or Lion for a fast attacker, or maybe even a Raptor. A griffin or Phoenix to fly. Maybe a swarm of some kind. I'm looking for tips and ideas. Thank you. [/QUOTE]
