True that. It takes a lot of effort to get the right astral mage go together with the right Pans for example, so that the communion master does not cast his spells before the sabbath slaves. Besides, the astral mages have so low HP they are easy to kill (at least compared with the Pans).

The best result I've ever succeeded to have was in a MP game where I succeeded to snatch formyself an Earth king, King of Banefires and an Airqueen all in the same turn. So if the stars align right, the possibilities are spectacular

At N11 you're getting a +4 penetration bonus. Seems like it would be easier to just pass out some Void Eyes to your pans than mess with communions. After your pans buff with Strength of Gaia you end up with the same penetration bonus.

Personally I like to give Pans a ring of regen and AMA as they increase the survivability by lots. Equipping a Void Eye on a non-Astral mage is in my opinion playing with fire.
