Strategy
Lesser Beckoning is mostly useful for slow characters, such as Nagas, players in Statue Form, or worshippers of Cheibriados, for pulling enemies to you so that you can hit them in melee.
At higher power levels, it is useful for all sorts of characters. It can pull enemies in, such as an annoying centaur or deep elf. This helps you kill them before taking loads of ranged attacks.
