I've tried having both characters summon. The doll appears, and I can put items in its inventory; I can have it walk a few feet to the left, a few feet to the right. Or I can simply have it stand in the place it was summoned. Within 30 seconds... or less... it simply disappears. I recently found the Demon doll, summoned it, and danged if the same thing didn't happen.

I can't think it's anything I'm doing. Something is clearly radically wrong here, something beyond my control as a player. I'm using the English North American version patched to 1.32... although as we all know, many of the "fixes" on that patch didn't come through. Still, it makes me crazy. There must be some reason that my game has this problem, and apparently nobody else's does. My DK even spent a skill point in Summoning Dolls Upgrade.

Frustrating. There must be a reason for this. Arggghhh. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/disagree.gif" alt="" /> Thanks for trying to help.
