Number of Weapon Summons

Post by Analog » Tue Sep 02, 2008 5:14 pm

In these forums someplace I've read that having more then one summons on a gun will produce better weapons (I think the thread says something like "Super weapons will come with 2 or more summons)".

A couple of different people in game have told me that was the case long ago (before one of the Joey updates) but isn't the case now.

Is that true? Does it not matter how many summons you have?

I've tried to test this myself but its so rare that I get even 1 summons, but in the times that I have been able to test it, it appears I've gotten a better weapons with 2 summons then I have with one (of course I can count on 1 hand how many times I've gotten 2 summons to test).

Wrong forum.

But yes, the two summon grid was disabled a while ago if I am remember rightly.

Using 2 summons on 1 wop at the same time wastes 1 summons.

it used to, but no longer. ah, the days of putting two summons on a shock wop, and having a ~ 30% chance of getting a wand.. cry

Something I've been wondering in regards to summons
Does the weapon you put it on make a difference in what you might end up with?

Yea, I know, a bit of necroposting, but the thread isn't that far down and didn't want to make a new one

Not anymore, of course you'll get the "experts" claiming otherwise but they are wrong.

I pretty much stopped using summons because all I ever ended up getting were frag grenades
