I don't get how the AI for my summoning ashes hecking suck in comparison to literally everything else in the game. I summoned my Black Knife Tiche+10 to fight Maliketh with me and guess what? He literally just strafed for two minutes while I was trying to get my spells off.
I got a few hits in too to try and trigger Tiche's agro on the boss but nah, tiche watched me get clapped up and then decided to fight when I died.
