I know this is probably way too late to help this poster, but I thought I'd comment. When I started out, my first rare summon was one of Felneus's earlier forms (I forget which one, but probably his first form.) He's a Breaker and I still have him. My second rare summon was a Vampire. The Vampire was outclassing Felneus (in whatever form he was, note that Felneus wasn't actually at 6*s because I wasn't at the point where that was possible) for damage at the time, though not survivability, if memory serves me right. :P

I evolved my Vampire to a Lich, but eventually fused him away, because this was well before the Achievement store's release and at the time he didn't have a 6*. These days I don't bother getting rid of anything I've only got one copy of and I kind of regret getting rid of my Lich, even though his 6* isn't inherently useful in this day and age of 7*s.

Nonetheless, if you're starting out and you don't have very many Dark units, the Vampire is worth raising up. He was pretty reliable in the beginning and for awhile the best unit on my team. You'll probably get better units down the road, but he can definitely get you through the standard quests, and possibly the arena, if you decide to invest in him. He's not terrible, but he's really quickly outclassed. I wouldn't invest in him if you've already got some better units to work on, but there's no harm in keeping him around and evolving him for the sake of daily tasks and/or having an undead body to throw at your opponents. If you get rid of him, that's also fine. I'd recommend trading him for points at least.
