In fact, considering that the boss' summons are actually useful by a lot for shadowers can be quite interesting. All those zakum summons going on top? I can already think of shadowers farming them for orbs.These scenarios work, but this is all pretty friggin slow. If you ever happen to be doing anything solo you're going to have to stop attacking with ME or BS and start picking off weakened enemies 1 by 1 for 5 times. And most summons on bosses past ht are kind of tough, so then instead of focusing on the boss I have to weaken, group, and then assassinate 5 of them to maximize dark instinct. That part makes me miss chakra even more. And even if I'm in a party i could time it perfectly but it still seems like time wasted for me to have to pop off 5 assassinates in a row just to cast a buff. I really don't like the concept at all, but I think what pushes it over the edge completely for me is that it has to be on the kill, and there's no way to stockpile them and not use any skill in between.
EDIT: AND SO HELP ME GOD IF DARK INSTINCT CAN GET DISPELLED
