Talk:Conjure Flame Atronach

I've found that the Flame Atronoch excels mainly at distracting a fire breathing Dragon from me. While it is a valuable ally to lower level mages, the thing becomes obsolete fast.

Their primary deficiency is in their hit points. They simply cannot hold their own against enemies who can hit them. Even enemies that are weak can overcome a Flame Atronach if they can get in range.

As far as damage goes, they do well enough. They do have horrible aim though.

The best use a higher level mage can have for them is to use their fire immunity to tank fire exclusive enemies. for instance, a fire focused Dragon priest, a Pyromancer, or a Dragon. The role of ranged damage is filled much more effectivly by the Storm Atronach.Sneak+stab (talk) 20:50, January 17, 2012 (UTC)Sneak+stab
