| This spell calls forth one of the greater demons of Pandemonium to serve the caster. Beware, for the spell binding it to service may not outlast that which binds it to this world! |
Summon Greater Demon is a level 7 Summonings spell which calls a single Tier 1 or 2 demon into existence.
Strategy
This spell carries some inherent risks worth being aware of. The demons summoned may arrive hostile, in which case a few shots of Abjuration will come in handy. Even if they do arrive friendly, however, Tier 1 demons will turn on you eventually (higher spellpower will extend this duration, as well as duration of the demon itself). Also, be aware that your demons will use hellfire (but not torment) without regard for your safety. In the end, however, having a Brimstone fiend or balrug on your side will greatly increase anyone's offensive capabilities.
Try Haunt if you want a safer option of the same level.
History
Prior to 0.10, this spell only summoned Tier 1 demons. However, at the time the category included many demons that are now classified as Tier 2, such as balrugs and cacodemons. This meant that every summon would eventually turn hostile.
