There is also a question of whether control summoned creature is one of the “Spells such as banishment or dismissal,” that work normally. Addressing these would improve your answer, I think. | |

| May 11, 2018 at 0:17 | comment | added | YogoZuno | @Carcer it also has a non-trivial cost for the caster of control summoned creature i.e. a Standard Action, which would likely need to be done on the round following the casting, following a failed save. | |
