Signature Summons- Time to update?

[sponazgul]

My recommendation for A Signature Summons update would be that Praetorian Loyalists should not be summoning the Lord Recluse versions, but the heroic versions with Praetorian names (Chimera as the name instead of Manticore, Marauder instead of BaB for example)

 

Resistance characters should still summon the heroic summonables with the Prime Earth name… that still makes some sense.

Clearly what we need are Signature Summons for Fusionette, Flamebeaux, Dillo, Zephyr, and Arbiter Sands.

They're probably not going to let us summon Tyrant instead of Statesman.

Although it would be fun.

Could they make the cost perhaps adjust to the level of your character at the time of purchase?  Maybe like ~100k-150k influence per character level? 

If I'm soloing content, but need to call in help because I need a tank or a melee DPS to help deal with a tough Archvillain, but I'm only level 20, I don't think my character can afford a 10 million temporary power...

I’d be satisfied if the Statesman that showed up was named Olympian 23 or something.

If you are solo, can't afford the Signature Summons, and need to call in help because you need a tank or melee DPS to help deal with a tough Archvillain, you still have the option of calling for help on a chat channel. A lot of players are more than happy to say yes. And I have never seen them stick around for any longer than the requesting player needs. (I've asked for help many times, had someone pop in to lend me hand, smack down the problem, and wish me well as they returned to whatever else they were doing previously.)

 

Edit: There are also other temporary powers that can be purchased from the START vendor for significantly less that makes taking down problematic targets much easier.

 

Edit again: Or, if it is specifically a tough AV giving you problems, you can turn off AVs for that mission and clear it as an EB. Maybe even lower the level adjustment to give you more of an edge.
