Usage Strategies

Controlling the Fire Demon

• As of Ice and Blood, summoned minions can be told to stay close to the player or go to a certain range. They also can be told to seek out individual targets or gang up on a single target opponent.

Splash screen tooltip states: "You can give orders to your familiars and companions with SHIFT + mouse button, they will attack. With # (default) you can specify the radius in which they will attack on their own. With - you can specify if they attack as a group or individually."

• So: pressing # will change the radius from near, medium to far, back to near, then to medium...

• And.. SHIFT + mouse button will direct the attacks of the fire demon.
