Although the Spell Puppet was slow, didn't deal much damage, and seemed to be easily smashed into pieces, Roland didn't mind.
Since entering the game, he had created many derivative spells, thus accumulating plenty of insights on spell variations. Speed, damage, and even physical resistance could all be optimized based on the combination of nodes in the spell model. However, there were limits to these optimizations, and after a certain point, it was very difficult to optimize, and it required a lot of effort or resources.
His bold idea was… to give Spell Puppets equipment.
Not equipment in the physical sense, but rather magic equipment.
Since the spell puppet would inherit some of the summoner's basic instincts and cognition, then the spell puppet would understand some of his basic instincts and knowledge.
But this was just conjecture, the exact details would have to be tested to find out for sure.
