Also, summoning EWs is much more efficient as you get 15 of them in one mage-turn, compared to just the one wight (or is there another spell for summoning wights in bulk?)

The spell "Legion of Wights" gives you 20 wights at 30 death gems. This is much cheaper than Ether Warriors, which demand a hefty 90S gem cost. From a cost-effectiveness perspective, most astral summons are greatly overpriced for their value, as compared to summons of comparable research level and power of other magic paths. This is undoubtedly because astral gems are considered to be cheaper than most other gems, perhaps in part due to clam usage. Many fire spells and summons exhibit a similar property, perhaps because of the Fire counterpart, the Fever Fetish.
