What I mean is - the summon interval is supposed to be 11 seconds. Sadly the only mob that I have such a perfect vivid memory of to know for sure it was >10 seconds is Lodizal, but I am pretty sure I was nastily surprised of the 6 second Planes of Power summon interval *because* I had never seen it before.
For Lodizal: I beat him with my necro at level 65 only because I could summon-kite him: Between summons, I had the time to run ahead of him with SoW potions, and cast exactly *one* spell, before he summoned me - and I had to get the timing exactly right so that he wouldn't interrupt the casting with summon, or catch up to me and melee me first.
I did the sebilite protector with a similar tactic, kiting him underwater near the bridge in Trakanons Lair, but my memory is not nearly as good.
Anyways - that is why I was asking for comments. And I will hope to look up some sources. Maybe someone with an active live account can go to sebilis and other kunark zones that have not been revamped, and check what the summon interval is currently - for verification.
The shorter summon interval is a gamechanger, makes many encounters a lot tougher - I can currently not even step back from a stationary mob to finish casting a spell before I get summoned again. And when tanking a mob, it will often - even when I am in melee range - summon me so far into itself, that it turns around and the rogues can't backstab until I move out again. But that's another issue... not sure if that was classic.
