It was right above the Fist. Apparently the giants sensed the incoming fight somehow and managed to scram just in time to get clear.

That said, the saddest thing about that line of thought, is how long it would take us to get a decent look into VS as a subject.
Can't really upgrade it before that :/

Eh, if anything is worth a long research time it's this.

Not yet, IIRC, unless @Goldfish has been working on it? If you want to take a crack at it then it should be up for grabs.

I probably won't get to it until this weekend unless you want it, TNE?
I was going to ask you to put the attack lines together anyway, since it's pretty odd now.

Sigh, another research thread when we haven't even cleared half of the current queue.
@Duesal, when are you getting to have that Dreadnought fed to the Merling King so that we can know his mechanics? I know you want to research its eye and claws first, but we are doing nothing with it for months.
Better feed it to the Merling King, then ask he extract those stuff you wanted.

Sacrifice to Death Gods like Yss and the Merling King doesn't really work like that -- they eat everything you toss to them. An alternative would be cutting out the Dreadnaught's eye before tossing it to the Merling King, but that'd be an inferior research subject.
As for him extracting the stuff we wanted, that defeats the purpose. We wanted to figure out how to make mass Anti-Magic Fields on command. A god's help in getting a working example is nice, but it doesn't tell us how to make it.

I will see about doing it tomorrow. Will need some gear.

Few pieces I dug up once that may be of use-
Because Sneak Attack is always good for those who can do it.
For more "unassaliable whirlwind of death"-vibes.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Also, @Goldfish, please have us craft this already, we need this shit to effectively summon anything beyond enemy minions (too many True Names this month with how few days have been "free" to summon).
Actually, several would be best even, since Unique assholes are likely outside of spell's boundaries without it (like that Mythic Cornugon).

It's just sitting as an astralized one-eyed tadpole with a kilometer long tail, inside its bottle doing nothing though...
We're really not being efficient at processing loot. We've got tons of stuff sitting because of neverending addition of projects, and calls for summoning every fiend name we can get. I don't even know if we got that fiery cow off that ship.
Can we please clean up the research queue before adding another dozen or so???
Sorry, just getting annoyed with all this research discussions...

I know your pain, so the only thing I can recommend...
Don't take it as a que.
It is simply not feasible.
Rather, all those things, are but options.
Of which we'll realistically ever do but up to a half.
Still, documenting them all was (and still is) much needed, otherwise they just ended up forever forgotten.
And yes, we did get that cow. Fixing it is under the "Flesch-crafting"-tab of RAs.
Also, we keep summoning every Fiend not for Research purposes (otherwise, we'd have summoned every kind of Fiend by now for nothing but science), but to ever-so-slightly limit the options of those yet trying to get onto PM, since they are all directly related/known to assholes we capture/kill directly.

Those things are useful in some circumstances, but not that useful. At best, they would let us Summon creatures with a couple additional HD, 20 rather than 18. That's not bad, but they are single-use items which cost 600 IM and have a caster level of 15. That means only Lya can make them.

Over a month of summoning having one would lend us up to 120 HD of potential summons.
Which is considerable enough to do.
Having at least one on hand for "summon something otherwise too fat to fit through the spell"-occasion is but good sense as well - nowadays, enemies worth summoning do have full chances of being such.

Dude, each feather can only be used once. At 600 IM each, that's three regular crafting days needed to make one, and since only Lya can make them, it's just not worth the time or expense to produce them in quantity.
I agree that it wouldn't hurt to have a few on hand for emergencies, but no way would we be using them on a daily basis just to Summon more HD.

The way I read it:
First variant grants a slightly higher ceiling on total HD summoned, and does not eat up the feather.
Second variant breaks the ceiling-per-creature and expends it.
Am I fucking up in my comprehension somewhere?

I can see how you would make that mistake from the way the item's description is worded, but it's definitely a single-use item. With a caster level of 15, and a 6th level spell as a base, it would cost much, much more if it could be reused.
Basically, they just put the bit in at the end to tell you what happens when you use the feather at all.

Any significant gear will have to wait until early next month. Right now we've got a pair of Soulfire Bracers it can wear, along with a PfE ring and Healing Belt. There's also a suit of +3 Glammered Mithral fullplate left in the armory if we want to put the Seeker in it.
Next month we should craft it items with +4 STR and DEX, +6 CON, and +2 WIS, along with this stuff:
Animated Extreme Shield: AC Bonus: +3 + 4 (Enhancement) + 5 (vs Ranged), Weight: 25 pounds
- Lesser Crystal of Arrow Deflection: You benefit from a +5 bonus to AC versus ranged attacks.
- Animated: Upon command, this shield floats within 2 feet of you, providing protection as if you were using it yourself but freeing up both her hands.
- 3/Day use Enlarge Person(self only) as a Swift Action for up to 10 rounds per day. The effect can be dismissed as a Free Action.
- Battle (3 Charges/Day): 1 Charge (gain a Move Action), 2 Charges (gain a Standard Action), 3 Charges (gain a Full-Round Action)
- Healing (3 charges/Day): 1 charge (Heal 2d8 points of damage), 2 charges (Heal 3d8), or 3 charges(Heal 4d8)
- 1/Day when activated as part of a melee attack, you inflict additional damage based on the type of weapon your are wielding: Light (+1d8), One-Handed (+2d6), Two-Handed (+3d6)
- Benefit from a +30ft Enhancement bonus to ground movement speed.
- 2/Day You can make a charge attack as a Standard Action (rather than a Full-Round Action), but only moving at your normal speed (instead of double). You must make the charge attack the same round the boots are activated, or the effect is lost.
- If you also wear a magic item that grants an enhancement bonus to your Dexterity score, you can move across difficult terrain and through squares occupied by allies when making a charge after activating the boots. These boots can be activated twice per day.
- 2/Day Instantly teleport up to 10 feet to an unoccupied destination within line of sight and line of effect. The wearer can teleport with objects, up to their maximum load, but cannot bring other creatures.
- You are protected by a Blur spell, granting a 20% miss chance on attacks made against you. It functions continually unless suppressed as a Standard Action. Another Standard Action restores the effect.
- 3 Charges/Day: 1 Charge (Darkvision 60 ft., 1 hour), 2 Charges (See Invisibility, 10 minutes), 3 Charges (True Seeing, 1 minute)
- 1/Day: Negate stun, daze, confusion, fascination (Does not include the effects of Chronomancy)
- 3 Charges/Day: 1 Charge (12 Temporary Hit Points), 2 Charges (18 Temporary Hit Points), 3 Charges (24 Temporary Hit Points), Duration: 10 minutes
- Undead creatures attempting to strike you suffer a -2 penalty to Attack rolls, or -4 to Attack rolls made by Incorporeal Undead. Undead gain a +4 bonus to detect you via Listen or Spot.
- 3/Day as a Swift Action, your arms stretch and elongate extending your Reach by 10 feet for one round.
- 1/Day you can make one extra attack with any weapon you are holding if you already made a full attack on this turn. This attack is made at your full base attack bonus, plus any modifiers appropriate to the situation. This effect is not cumulative with any other effect that grants you an extra attack when making a full attack, such as the Rapid Shot feat, a speed weapon, or the haste spell.
- A weapon drawn from the Scabbard can be affected by the Align Weapon, Ghost Touch Weapon, or Keen Edge spells 3/Day each.
We should also decide on an Armor Crystal and four Weapon Crystals.

I get a feeling that if we try using him as "support" for any adventurers of ours as we intended to begin with, they'll get slaughtered instead by Seeker-appropriate challenge now.
Please continue.

Looking at the cost of the feather, @egoo, it appears the item is actually using the Greater Planar Binding or Greater Planar Ally spells, which are 8th level. They probably show the middle tier version of those spells on the d20PFSRD page because of the way all versions of a spell are kept together on a single page.
Anyway, the cost of a single-use item with a caster level of 15 and an 8th level spell equals 6,000 gp [(caster level x spell level) x 50] / 10 = 600 IM.
A 1/Day version would cost 43,200 gp [(caster level x spell level) x 1,800 / 5], or 4320 IM. That's much a much more reasonable expense, if @DragonParadox approves of it.

What'd 2/day cost?
1/day would lend but up to 60 HD.
Which is still worth it, but somewhat less, imo.
I mean, it's literally free Phoenixes at some point
