Gate and summon monster 1

[damien the 3rd]

in bg2, a gate spell always rendered a pit fiend, and said so in the spell description. but iwd2 doesnt specify, so whats it make? and as for summon monster, what does it make?

the monster summoning and gate conjure different monsters depending on char. level i have gotten scrags, zombies, zombie lords, mummies (which are cool to get as they cast spells on their own) djinns, frost giants as for gate, so far i have only gotten pit fiends and conrugons. might i say, i am playing in HOF mode and to me these are the most helpful spell, with the addition of summon undead, conjure greater shadow, and invisible stalker, as none of these require a protection from evil with the exception of gate. druid spells such as elemental summoning, especially the higher level spell where you summon 1 of each of the 4 elementals is great too as is animal summoning, which at higher levels like 7,8 and 9 also summon elementals, but you cannot control elemental movement, and you definitely need protection from evil cast on party members. have fun and enjoy with your new friends
