Summon rat tactic

This tactic needs about 3 nether to start rolling. Sneak helps which makes me happy because rogues get the shaft with bashing. I mean what if a rogue got spellfire and 10 ranks in heavy armor once their strength got to 70?
Anyhow even in huge battles summoning rats 3 times in a row which nets about 10-15 rats and then breaks their formation allowing a couple of fast kills. Distracts mages/ballista and makes them more likely to kill their own men. Repeat if their is still too many enemies.
Against single targets such as class gaining quests it is awesome. The rats don't do much damage, but they cause continuous staggering so that your attacks are not interrupted as much.
If the rats get a kill against someone you haven't damaged no xp. But first of all rats don't get many kills. Second killing massive amounts of enemies FASTER is more important than losing kills. Mobs spawn forever. This tactic allows you to storm bolen fields and earn money (staffs) at level 7. Even helps versus large amounts (4) carrion worms because its easier to get isolation on one worm at a time. They do stimulate more gas however.
