Exploiting Sparring like an Ant

Engaging in combat neither breaks sparring or prevents it. With this, you can create artificial 'ants' for use of improving maneuvers with ridiculous Deltas. This leaves no scents, is mobile, fast, and fairly easy to defend.
Perhaps this is intended but it seems odd to me that you can spar while fighting real opponents. Like this, the weaker character can feed the main fighter Defense, Attack, and Attack Speed using nothing but charge. Cheap, quick, and efficient combat batteries.

As far as I know, this has been around for a while... I'd suggest using jump over charge. It's quicker, and you only need 400LP on a newly spawned character to get it. And maybe feed your "jump alt" alot of cons food, give him some nice armor. Put your farmers to use when the hour of battle comes :P

Armor = less agi = less moves on the main to give him buffs.

Of course that is the case, but you should be able to maximize your cooldown benefit/his cool down increase vs an alt with 10 agility. and if you didn't, then you hopefully will when he has armor on. Also the 20% longer CD's on jump are probably worth your alt jumping if you are actually relying on it to win a fight.

Even if you couldn't spar you could simply aggro the alt yourself.

This is true though it has the adverse effect of leaving scents. Though that may not be a very big concern if you're using them to help you kill someone anyway.

Assault isn't summonable.
