I tried to make this thread before and then I lost it to a connection error and it didn't post TAKE TWO: I think familiars are cool and a little overlooked! I think SOTN handled them the best having them be their own seperate mechanic, since if they take up some kind of spell slot I'm probably going to use something else. That being said, I found Fidelis Medusa super useful in OOE Level 1 Hard Mode once I had leveled it up extensively... Some of my favorite familiars are... The bat from SOTN, because it is cute and I love the idea of Alucard being friends with bats Fidelis Medusa because it's such a useful shield against projectiles, and petrification is pretty useful in OOE Fidelis Mortus, because getting to summon mini versions of the game's secret boss is awesome Fidelis Noctua because I <3 cute owls perching on my shoulders That electric crow from COTM because I remember using it somewhat often in my 100% playthrough Carabosse from Bloodstained, because the design is cute and I love its singing <3

I'm a big fan of the bat from Symphony. It's just a lil guy. My friend :) The way it summons other bats with hearts, and when it goes "?" when Alucard turns from a bat back into his normal form... Soooooooo cute <3

Sword Familiar/Bloodbringer are cool concepts, but their windups are so slow and time consuming that their only valid usage is on bosses with big fat thicc hitboxes that politely sit still and let my sentient magic sword finish it's windup animation.
Ghost from CotM doesn't mess around. It sees an enemy, immediately latches on, and goes ham. Too bad about the MP cost, though.
Imp from CotM is very cute and I love it, but outside of activating Nuclear Nathan it's usage is... limited.
CotM Fairy's projectiles home slightly so that alone makes it the most useful projectile lobbing familiar.
