[QUOTE="Berk, post: 751441, member: 5992"] Well since formians have a hive mind and since when you summon one you take it away from the hive mentality that it would fight just like any other single minded creature. The way that creature fights itself. It is completely different going up against something that can only think for itself, and something that thinks for itself and has hundreds and even thousands of others thinking for it at the same time. Personally I say the players have wasted a month of prescious time that they could have used studying the formians in other ways like from a sage or library. A lot less labor intensive for the PC's and you could prolly find out more in a month through a sage and a library then fighting the same type of creature over and over. I mean low level adventurers spend months fighting orcs and kobolds and goblins. Do they ever get a bonus for doing this? And if you want to use dwarves get a bonus against certain creatures. Well that is because they spent generations fighting these type of monsters and it was part of evolution to adept to fighting these monsters to survive. 1 month shouldn't come anywhere near close to several thousands of years of evolution.
