i play a death necro in sf and i always summon as soon as the +xp pops up on my screen. for a large elephant beast, they are technically "dead" before they start their "toppling over" animation, so many times if i get a fast cast out of my spell, the minon will rise out of the falling corpse lol.
also i've noticed that when 2 cast spells end at virtually the same time, the corpse will be used by both - i've often summoned a minion from a corpse at the same time a wos is made. i think it's the same thing as when 2 people cast rebirth at the same time, and the rez'd char pops up at one player position, then instantly at the 2nd caster's position.
i've also noticed that dark binders have a chance at fast casting as well. usually i can outcast their minion casts, but every so often their casts just whip right out. since enemies carry so few skills i would imagine that if they were programmed to run a skillbar of 8 skills, they may just have doubled up on some skills like orison or wos.
i ruthlessly exploit every corpse available.. which is why i love bringing along vengence lol
