Summoning is a skill that allows you to create Summoning Tablets for various familiars which provide bonuses to various tasks while equipped. Two types of tablets can be equipped in a single loadout. Some combinations of familiars provide a Synergy effect in addition to their regular benefits when equipped at the same time.

The chance of acquiring marks over time for a familiar can be increased by:
* Equipping tablets of that same familiar. This doubles the chance for non-combat skills (excluding {{Skill|Alt Magic}}), and increases the chance by 1.75 times for {{Icon|Combat}} skills as well as {{Skill|Alt Magic}}
* Minimising the action time for skills which consume resources (being {{Skill|Firemaking}}, {{Skill|Cooking}}, {{Skill|Smithing}}, {{Skill|Fletching}}, {{Skill|Crafting}}, {{Skill|Runecrafting}}, and {{Skill|Herblore}}). This improves the rate at which marks are acquired. For any other skills, changes to the action time have no impact on the rate of mark acquisition
* For {{Icon|Combat}} in particular:
** Maximising the player's chance to hit will improve the acquisition rate as marks are only rolled on successful hits, not misses
** Using weapons with [[Special Attacks|special attacks]] that make multiple attacks is ''not'' beneficial, as marks are only rolled on the first attack


Note that:

* Marks for all {{Icon|Combat}} skills (including {{Skill|Slayer}}) have a chance of being obtained on each hit rather than on kill
* Marks for all {{Icon|Combat}} skills (including {{Skill|Slayer}}) have a chance of being obtained on each hit rather than on kill

==== Mark Discovery Chance ====
The chance of discovering a mark for each action is given by the following formula:
<math>\text{Mark Chance} = \frac{\text{Action Time}}{\left ( \text{Tier} + 1 \right )^2 \times 300} \times \text{Equipped Modifier}</math>
Where:
* '''Tier''' is the familiar's tier
* '''Equipped Modifier''' is either:
** 2 if the familiar for which marks are being discovered is equipped & discovered in a non-Combat skill
** 1.75 if the familiar is equipped & discovered in a {{Icon|Combat}} skill
** 1 otherwise
* '''Action Time''' is the time the action takes in seconds, which for Combat is the player's attack speed. Note that for the following skills, the value used here is fixed to the following, regardless of the actual time the action takes to complete:
{{ActionTimeOverrideTable}}
'''Note:''' For {{Skill|Firemaking}} the highest chance is achieved when burning the log with the highest {{Icon|Mastery}} level, rather than simply choosing the log with the lowest burn time. See below for more information.
===== Maximising Mark Discovery Chance =====
The chance of acquiring marks over time for a familiar can be increased by:
* Equipping tablets of that same familiar. This doubles the chance for non-combat skills (excluding {{Skill|Alt. Magic}}), and increases the chance by 1.75 times for {{Icon|Combat}} skills as well as {{Skill|Alt. Magic}}
* Burning the log with the highest {{Icon|Mastery}} level for {{Skill|Firemaking}}. Due to the fixed action time above varying per log, the log with the highest mastery level is the quickest relative to the base burn interval, which in turn maximises the mark chance
* Minimising the action time for the following resource-consuming skills: {{Skill|Cooking}}, {{Skill|Smithing}}, {{Skill|Fletching}}, {{Skill|Crafting}}, {{Skill|Runecrafting}}, and {{Skill|Herblore}}. This improves the rate at which marks are acquired. For any other skills, changes to the action time have no impact on the rate of mark acquisition, although longer actions are usually preferable to reduce the number of tablets consumed over time
* For {{Icon|Combat}} in particular:
** Maximising the player's chance to hit will improve the acquisition rate as marks are only rolled on successful hits, not misses
** Using weapons with [[Special Attacks|special attacks]] that make multiple attacks does not increase the chance of discovering marks, as the action time used for hits beyond the first is the time since the last hit rather than the base attack interval

Summoning XP can be gained much more quickly by using the Summoning Tablets once created. XP is gained whenever a tablet charge is used. For non-combat tablets, this occurs whenever the player does an action in the relevant skill. For combat tablets, this occurs each time the familiar attack bar fills, which takes 3 seconds.

Additionally, {{ItemIcon|Occultist}} and {{ItemIcon|Witch}} Summoning Tablets will be consumed for each {{Skill|Alt. Magic}} action performed, providing XP faster by 1 second than through combat, but gaining no other benefit from the Tablet.


XP gained follows a formula that is based on the level of the summon and the amount of time the action took (in seconds):

When a tablet is consumed some skills use a fixed value for the time per action regardless of the player's bonuses, similarly to {{Icon|Mastery}} XP. Specifically this applies to skills which consume resources. These skills and their action times are as follows:

For example, when cooking with {{ItemIcon|Pig}} Summoning Tablets equipped ({{SkillReq|Summoning|25}} required) the XP earned will be <math>\frac{2.55 \times 25 \times 10}{25 + 10} = 18.21</math> xp even if the player's actual cooking action time is the default 3 seconds.

When tablets are used as part of a synergy, XP will be gained for each tablet used. Both tablets will use the same action time, which is either a fixed value for skills listed within the [[#action_time_table|table above]], or the actual action time for all other skills.


=== Unlocking And Using Synergies ===
=== Unlocking And Using Synergies ===
 
{{Main|Reference=Synergy}}
Some familiars produce an additional effect when both are used at the same time. These combination effects are called Synergies and can be unlocked by reaching a high enough Mark level with both summons. Even if both familiars are equipped, the Synergy effect will not happen unless it is unlocked.
{{:Synergy}}
 
The Mark level required for a synergy is equal to one plus the tier level of the other summon in the synergy. For example, to unlock the synergy between {{ItemIcon|Golbin Thief}} (Tier 1) and {{ItemIcon|Minotaur}} (Tier 2) the player needs to reach Mark Level 3 for Golbin Thief and Mark Level 2 for Minotaur.
 
While using an unlocked Synergy, a charge will be used from each tablet. These charges are used in addition to any charges that would normally be used for the action. For example, when using the {{ItemIcon|Ent}} + {{ItemIcon|Mole}} Synergy (+2% chance per action in Woodcutting to gain a random gem), two Ent tablets and one Mole tablet will be used for each action.
 
XP is gained for each tablet used, which means Synergies earn XP faster due to consuming more tablets. As the XP earned scales with action time, the amount of XP earned per tablet can be maximised by choosing the longest action.
