#1 Xivilai
The undisputed most powerful among all Oblivion Remastered summons is Xivilai. It is a Master level summon who boasts the highest Health and damage among all of them. If you have enough magicka to conjure a Xivilai, then you can be confident in any battle. They have plenty of resistance all the while being able to dish out all sorts of damage. Xivilai can effectively crowd control, providing you space to prepare attacks or heal up in battles.
#2 Dremora Lord
Dremora Lord has the highest defense among all Oblivion Remastered summons. It is another Master level summon worthy of conjuring, especially as it’s literally an armor that moves. While it may not have overwhelming damage compared to other Master levels, it shines through tanking attacks. In a drawn out battle, nothing can outlast the Dremora Lord. If your character is a ranged type, this tank as your summon will be like a dream come true!
#3 Daedroth
This may come as a surprise because Daedroth is an Expert level summon. However, the cost and benefits of conjuring this fearless crocodile earns it this spot. Daedroth is deemed the most powerful among Expert summons in Oblivion Remastered.
Daedroth cost less magicka while giving superior value. It can handle a crowd of enemies with its high Health and Damage. It can also hold its own even against higher level opponents and possesses great mobility, making it a deadly hunter.
#4 Storm Atronach
The mightiest of Atronach summons in Oblivion Remastered, Storm Atronach is the fourth Master level summon on this list. Its worth goes unquestionable with its ability to dish out fearsome shockwaves that few could resist—a valuable ally for most bosses.
Besides its powerful melee prowess, Storm Atronach is also bulky. With all that, it can even dish out decent ranged damage. The only downside would be its slow mobility, which may sometimes take forever to reach targets.
#5 Headless Zombie
Last but not the least, and another surprising pick, is the Headless Zombie. With all the remaining Masters and Expert Oblivion Remastered summons, this Journeyman ascended to the top. While yes, it is nowhere near as powerful as higher level creatures, this is perhaps the best summon in early game.
For beginners, it is easy to acquire and for what it’s worth, produces great value to help you while you learn the game. Headless Zombies have high Health and respectable damage. For a low amount of magicka, it’s got quite a long spell duration. This means that it can effectively draw attention away from you and deal a fair amount of damage before expiring.
Conclusion
The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered offers a variety of interesting summons. This list presents to you the best ones according to data from various gameplays in different stages. While there are more creatures with higher stats, the ones listed provide a better cost-value effect.
