Was bored the other night and did a duo with a friend down in UW with him bringing just a bunch of rit spirits. Worked fairly well.
I'm wondering if using Summon spirits, plus a movement stance (such as pious haste that can be kept up all the time) could essentially be used to solo aataxes, smites, and whatever else. Basically just throwing down Pain, Shadowsong, bloodsong, anguish, vampirism, and any other damage spirits there are, aggro stuff, then run around like crazy and hitting summon spirit when whatever is on following you starts hitting spirits. Would this work (even if only NM).
Solo UW idea.

It will take ages for your spirits to kill.
Smites might not work, since they do RoF.
If aataxes take out your spirit, you can't stop and recast spirits. (Too risky)
Hard mode would be impossible as they have speed boost as well, and they can 1 hit kill your spirits

Summon spirits also apparently has the side effect of causing all the spirits to attack the same target (according to wiki notes), and also doesn't interupt their attacks. I also forgot to add pulling with painful bond, which would make a big difference balance wise.
At least for the first chamber aataxes, theres always the spirit trick if they were to kill the spirits.
