It's not really a full guide on poison creeper, just a part of his hybrid wolf guide (http://www.geocities.com/welett/fram.htm).

there is one peice of advice not found in that guide which is important for a build that uses PC extensively:
Put a point in Carrion Vine. PC is a very smart, but very ambitious summon. It will not wait until there is a group of monsters to begin attacking, and will attack single monsters if they are closer. For PC to be realy effective, you need to get the monsters into tight-ish groups. The most effective way is to unsummon PC for a while, get the monsters grouped, then summon PC in the middle of the group. If you summon a CV, it will kill your PC. Thats pretty much the only way to unsummon a PC. :thumbsup:

[edit] Perhaps some of us who have alot of PC experience should get together and make a "Everything you ever wanted to know about Poison Creeper" guide...

or you can recast your creeper somewhere else...

That would work but I think he means so that it does not attack monsters....which it can't if it is unsummoned.

Yup. Thats the idea. If you cast it somewhere else it will go back to attacking the nearest monster which may or may not be in a pack. Its betterto cast CV, then group the monsters, then cast PC in the middle.

Why cast CV? Who cares if the PC attacks something? It sets up a pad, so all you do is lure the creatures onto that pad and poison them yourself. The only thing I'd say is cast the PC wherever a monster is if you want a pad there.

I guess it really depends on which is easier for you. Different strokes for different folks.
