			== Example builds ==
			Summoner build:<br>
			Max the stat that matches your Shadow Lord. (STR, INT or DEX)<br>
			If you plan to use an ATK based Shadow Summon, max STR. If you plan to use a MATK based Shadow Summon, max INT. If you want both, max both.<br>
			Put the rest into VIT.<br>
			<br>
			Life Taker and Blood Crush DO NOT GET REMOVED when using Creeping Shadow. So you can use those to help heal up.<br>
			Drain will be weak, but the heal will be needed.<br>
			Chaos can swap Drain to an SP heal if needed.<br>
			Death Blade will triple the effect of Drain, but the trade-off is that it's a bit unsafe.<br>
			Curse Spike affects summons, as they hit the DEF/MDEF of the target. Removing those will make them deal more damage.<br>
			Death Embrace is a filler move, but it can prove handy in some scenarios.<br>
			<br>
			The full summon tree is necessary for a full summon build to work. So there isn't much explaining needed for that. Make sure to read all the skills CAREFULLY. Then decide what you want to use.<br>
			There are a lot of options, so it's up to the user to decide what they want, which is why I'm not putting much emphasis here. Every Shadow Lord and Shadow Summon has a use case.<br>
			<br>
			If you still want some direction, Lich Lord is good for single target, Witch is good for area, if you want screen-wide damage then Dainn is the option. The screen-wide damage is SLOW TO CAST so make sure you're safe when using it.<br>
			<br>
			For Shadow Summons, Marksman is good single target damage, Arcanist is good area damage. Use promote on the summon that has the damage type you need most.<br>
			<br>
			Currently, it is most beneficial to walk when fighting mobs rather than teleporting. Mobs can not target summons currently, which may or may not cause some mobs to detect a rude attack and teleport away.<br>
			<br>
			The combo is super simple in theory, but keeping your HP and SP high is where the difficulty of this class comes into play. You will want to summon all 3 shadows, use shadow veil, summon 3 more, use promotion on 1, then summon your shadow lord. All this can be done in town, so you can heal between usage.<br>
			When fighting, buff using action and assist IF NEEDED, then use shadow assault.<br>
			From here, you will want to cast Genocide when you're able to, otherwise you use Creeping Shadow to keep your HP and SP as high as possible. Consumables may be needed.
