I am going to have to disagree with the folks saying he doesn’t hold aggro. Upgrading will give them more health or a higher attack rating maybe better at sucking up damage and the rats increase in numbers, but a summons that isn't aggressive and won't attack enemies unless you are up to your neck in sh*t without being upgraded will be exactly the same at +10.

So any new players or anyone who hasn't got around to upgrading spirit ashes yet should learn from my mistake, don't upgrade ANY spirit ashes until you have tried them out a couple of times on enemies in the general area you found them to be sure you like what you see and think they will work well with your playstyle and build. I got suckered by all that three times and I wasted grave glovewarts on two spirit summons that have been next to worthless every time I summoned them and ghost glovewarts on one elite summons that isn't aggressive and more likely to stand next to me doing f**k all than attack any enemies. Pretty much every wiki for each spirit ash apart from the wandering nobles and noble sorcerer have comments along the same general lines, a load of bollocks about how this or that spirit summons almost killed Malenia by itself.
