Strategy
The Scholomance Dark Summoners are part of groups of either two or three mobs. These groups consist of the Summoners themselves and one or two Scholomance Necrolytes. The Necrolytes generally attack with 
[Shadow Bolt].
The Summoners need to be seen as the priority targets of their mob group and removed as quickly as possible, since if they remain alive and attacking, they can gradually summon a large number of Skeletal Lackeys which will overwhelm the player group.
The Summoners' health is not overly high and so the player group should be able to tank the Necrolytes' fire for the short period of time needed to kill the Summoner.
If you have priests...
Mind Control the Summoner and make them fight the other two. Then cut in and attack them. Also, interrupt their summon spells — other than this, there's nothing special.
If you use a mage...
Simply sheep the Summoner and fight the other two. When fighting the Summoner, use 
[Counterspell], 
[Kick], 
[Shield Bash], or 
[Silence] to interrupt the Summon Risen Lackey spell.
If you have a hunter...
A hunter can make use of 
[Explosive Trap] to rapidly remove a large number of Risen Lackeys at once.
Quotes
- After summoning a Frail Skeleton
- Hmmm, this one looks like something that would be better off as a windchime. Take note class... This is NOT what you want to summon in the heat of battle.
- Note the weak binding structure of this one. Be sure to finish your incantations or this is what you will end up with.
- Wow, this one is just plain useless. Let me try again.
- Now this is an example of what not to summon. Look, it's frail and brittle. One good whack from a mace will send bone shards flying.
- This one is slightly better than the last. However, it still suffers from the same flimsy bone structure as the others. When you summon one of these, you are on the right path.
