Polymorph
One of the strategies I read from my malconvoker was to polymorph summoned creatures into other stuff.
Most noteable centipedes (high HD) into Hydras.
For example the SM3 fiendish centipede has 6HD and could be poly'd into a 6 headed hydra.
But would that be worth it I am pondering.
It would require another 4th lvl spell, also does stuff like Augment Summoning get wasted in the transformation? Couldn't really find any info on that.
Later there is a 12HD centipede for a juicy 12-headed hydra but like the 6 headed version it won't get its Fast Healing, and with no DR either, is it worth it (one SM6 and one polymorph (spell level 4)?
