Raven's Point and Asura Summon(s) questions.

Okay, I've been trying to farm the Raven's Point dungeon for a shield from the end-game chest, and I've noticed that the Asura that comes with you claims he can fix the defences (I assume he means the tower things that usualy shoot out ice projectiles or solid beams) however, I've NEVER seen him fix one/one fire at the enemy.

So my question it..does he actualy DO anything, or is he just there to be annoying and block you when you're trying to run around corners after grabbing a flame?

I don't know if this is the right place to ask about Asura summons, but I'll ask anyways. xD

I use the mursaat summon mostly, and I've read on wiki that it's attack causes weakness, however I only ever see it use a regular wand/staff attack, UNLESS I summon it when an enemy is close to me, then I see lightning strike the enemy (after the mursaat was summoned) and only ONCE.

So...Do the summon's only use their main skill when they're summoned and theres an enemy near-by? (and only once?)

because I usualy summon it THEN engage the enemies...have I been using the summons wrong all this time?

Concerning the Asura, you have to bring him near the traps for him to fix it.

Given all their intellect, you would believe that maybe, just maybe, they know how to walk towards a trap without you holding their hand

Cuz he's really close to them on the third level when the Destroyers approuch, yet I never remember them firing.

...Though maybe that explains why I was able to defeate them with just 4 people (Ehhhh, me and my 3 heros) when my friend's connection dropped during loading one time. x_x

They're ice darts, so it's forgivable if you don't see them firing as they are quite small

Summons work properly for me. At least the Djinn and the Imp. Those are the only two I use, for burning in some places, and snare in other places.
