I was thinking why should a ll summons be deadric or skeletons or creatures why can't we get like normal summons like birds, cougars lions or like for instance put togeather some old armor and weapons to summon a person with it equipped to aid you or something like that what do you guys think.

I'd be more interested in Necromancy spells being added too the Conjuration skill.

One thing I'd also like to see changed is that summon spells drain mana (less mana if you're more skilled in conjuration) per second while a summon is present, rather than just have a set duration. That way, if your mana regen can support it, you can have a permanent summon without having to resummon ad infinitum.

Daedric: I want Golden Saints, Dark Seducers, and winged Twilights.

Undead: You can summon Liches, why can't you summon a Vampire. I want undead creatures too. Also Necro spells.

Creatures: Werewolves, yeah.

If you look at the conjuration starsign it has four forks, but two are very small (just one perk), so I think it will focus on Undead and Daedra (sadly).

Even though I am not a huge fan of the games dragon age had a decent idea like this. Certain spells required a mana reserve to keep going, like 20% of your pool. Summons could work like that and it would be cool. Maybe even allow multiple summons then, it just keeps reducing your total pool until you release the spells/
