I'm finaly thinking about getting a familiar for the game, but are they realy worth it ? I dont want to have a little 24 hp target running around thats going to cost me a con point or the frustration of constant restarts.

Thats why you should get cats (backstab) and ferrets. Oh yeah, the pseudo dragons a mage killer (high magic resistance).

Just pop him in your backpack and cast it off a scroll (if you're a sorceror). So he can't die, you don't waste a spell slot, and you get about 10 extra hitpoints.

Not sure what mage you could kill with a pseudo dragon... Besides an 'almost dead' mage. They have poor thaco and do like 4 damage per hit.

IMHO Helldog12, forget the familar spell and put a magic missle there or chromatic orb. I never use familar, to worried about having it die and losing that ever so important constitution point. YEAH YEAH, I've got shadowkeeper, but it is all about roleplaying for me.
