[QUOTE="DracoSuave, post: 5631690, member: 71571"] The problem is, AA, durations don't work like that. There's two types of durations, sustained, and conditional. Conditional duration simply means 'Event X stops this effect from continuing.' You can have multiple conditions operating on the same power, without them overriding each other. Now, had the power said 'This power ends when you take an extended rest' then that is an implicit override of the existing condition in the keyword. That condition can never be satisfied unless you replace the 'until end of encounter' condition. But Summon Shadow Servant does not do that. It simply assigns three conditions that are fully capable of being executed without excepting the keyword as well. Nothing in the power overrides the keyword for duration. Other things... yes. The wording on Summon Shadow Servant is exactly like Summon Warlock's Ally for the hexblade, and that doesn't last beyond the end of encounter either. [/QUOTE]
