well in the show summons got a few special things in their arsenal. Gama had oil and a water bomb thing, Slug could make copies of itself, dogs could search and hold zab, weasile(temari) could clear paths with razor sharp wind and snake could....swallow...weird. My ideas ^^:
Frog: well i thought it could have a few attacks. it could shoot oil which could help make fire type jutsu used from leaf and uchiha do more damage maybe a plus 1.5 or double damage. The water bomb thing, which isnt too bad since not everyone will use oil shot, can be a long range attack but it can have a big delay so it isnt unfair.
Slug: Slug bunshin which can make maybe 1 or 2 bunshins of itself which could have maybe 1/4 of its tai and can help attack since slug doesnt do much damage in the first place. if the original slug is beat the bunshins should go away.
Dogs: Search which is kinda self explanitory since hyuugas have it to, it just allows a player, who isnt a hyuuga or aburame, the chance to find people. Another move was that the dogs could hold your enemy for 3 seconds atleast which i guess can be named pain hold or something. you must have all 3 dogs summoned for this move and the delay is also big so it isnt unfair. This just makes the dogs seem less useless =/.
Weasil( if we ever get it as a summon like in v4): In the show it cleared the a path by cutting down trees. I know this is kinda useless but i was thinking that it could do the same but instead of trees why not clear the path of bunshins. it can do low damage i guess but since it takes 1 hit to kill bunshins they will all disapear. the area of the attack could be about the range of a kaguyas 5th dance which can be useful.
Snakes: ok im not too sure about this summon. I guess it could wrap its enemy with its body and hold it for about 3 secs and have a big delay so it also isnt unfair.
I know these are pretty useless but i just want our summons to be unique and have something to offer other than just attacking a person. ^^
i like your idea., and to add to the snake idea: could it possibly swallow the enemy, and keep him in their until you "desummon" (i forgot wut its called) or the snake is killed or until time runs out. (you can still hold the enemy inside the snake while controlling and directing the snake.)(ofcoure you can make your snake regurtitate the person back out)
if there is no time limit, to holding the person, then i guess it cant damage the enemy wile swallowing it. (it could be good for sneaking other poeple into places, for rping, or whatever)
and if it not too unfair, then maybe you could blow up your snake after swalowing up the enemy (if theres gunna be a time limit.
^^
((sorry if my idea is too unfair, or overpowered))
yea i thought of the swallowing thing too and yea i think its a little unfair lol plus i didnt think that too many summons should have the ability to hold someone or then they wont change the snake will be wanted more than the dogs since both will be able to hold so i gatta leave the swallowing thing out but good idea tho =/.
well then if that whole idea of wont be happnin, then could the snake just swallow for like 3 or 4 sec (u cant attack them though) then you could explode your snake, making your snake die, and making the enemy suffer damage?
i guess but it would need a big reload time and i like the idea of not being able to attack while holding them i just didnt want the dog to be less popular since they can both hold, if the snake had a exploding move the dog might lose a players interest in it =/ get what i mean?
yea., and it probably should have a big reload time. but at the same time..., you can summon multiple dogs, and itd be good for a nara if they didnt want to use up too much chakra nek binding. so that could be the big difference between snakes and dogs.
p.s. i just remebered, you need to make it in sound before summoning snakes, and not alot of people make it in sound (unless they keep remaking and trying.) so i dont think dogs will lose interest in dogs that much ^^
p.s.s., why is nc down, and when willit come back up?
your right about the snake forgot about that. and i dont know why nc has been down mole might never bring it back up or hes been really busy i hope he hasnt stoped hosting=/
Oooh maybe the snake could be able to shed. Kinda like a kawarimi kinda thing but it could only do it a limited # of times or something like that. Right before it gets hit, BAM it sheds and escapes like in the show. Maybe it could also go underground and u can click the place where it will pop up next. Just saying......
lol i like your ideas but i think they would make th snake overpowered lol but its up to the nc community to tae these ideas i can only try to help make it more fun
lol but then the summons would get more attack or get to equip items i think then it gets too complicated lol. i think it should show when it is summoned but just for the icon no special boost it isnt fair to other summons.
i agree wit waka, it might be a lil too complicated, but it could be funner...but i dont think manda has a weapon, and uh.....i also think there should be a big smoke effect when a summon is summoned and the same smoke effect when it dies. hehe. and the smoke can fad e away slowly. (but the summon can be movaable when the smoke is SLOWLY fading away ^^
