For myself, I can think of at least one instance where summoning elementals during a 'rout' could be useful; that is, summoning air elementals to hit the rear to cause more casualties. However, this would be contingent on summoned elementals attacking the rear, and only really applies to air elementals.

I'd like to second _any_ spell that causes creatures to go berserk is very unhealthy.
