== Introduction ==
This page goes through the general method and tips of training the {{Skill|Summoning}} skill.
== Equipment ==
There is no requirement to start {{Skill|Summoning}}, although there are various items of equipment and other things that can provide benefits specific to the Summoning skill - see [[Summoning#Skill Boosts|Summoning Skill Boosts]].

===Marks===
===Marks===
Marks are the first thing you need to get in Summoning. At level 1, the options are {{Skill|Attack}}, {{Skill|Strength}}, {{Skill|Defence}}, or {{Skill|Woodcutting}}.

Using tablets on the skill you acquired the mark from grants Summoning XP, and much more XP than creating tablets so using tablets is the quicker method of gaining Summoning levels. The XP/second gained increases with the Summoning level required for that familiar, and uses the following formula:
Using tablets on the skill you acquired the mark from grants Summoning XP, and much more XP than creating tablets so using tablets is the quicker method of gaining Summoning levels. The XP/second gained increases with the Summoning level required for that familiar, and uses the following formula:


<math>\text{Base XP Gained per Tablet Use} = \frac{\text{Action Time (seconds} \times \text{Summoning Level Required} \times 10}{\text{Summoning Level Required} + 10}</math>
<math>\text{Base XP Gained per Tablet Use} = \frac{\text{Action Time (seconds)} \times \text{Summoning Level Required} \times 10}{\text{Summoning Level Required} + 10}</math>
 
As is the case with [[#Marks|Marks]], certain skills used a fixed value for the action time when determining the amount of XP gained per tablet.

Having multiple familiars of at least level 2 or higher will start to unlock [[Summoning#Synergies|Synergies]]. Synergies grant additional bonuses over those given by using the familiars by themselves, as well as more XP per action.

For the best XP rates, it is suggested to unlock these synergies as soon as you can by levelling up marks.

Higher tier (2 and 3) familiars need higher mark levels for their synergies to unlock than tier 1 familiars, but again these award more XP.

== Boosters ==
===Township Trader===
The following things can be used to increase the amount of Summoning XP received:
For the non-shard items, before cost reductions, a total of {{GP|1000}} worth of items needs to be supplied per craft, with the exception that items that have a value before {{GP|20}} are considered to have a value of {{GP|20}}. In the case of items that can be bought via the [[Township]] [[Trading Post]], it is much more cost-efficient efficient to buy the cheapest resource, that is, to buy [[Normal Logs]], [[Garum Herb]]s, [[Copper Ore]], and [[Bronze Bar]]s to make [[Ent]], [[Mole]], [[Bear]] and [[Salamander]] tablets. This strategy does not apply to [[Food]] items - the player should instead buy high-tier food items from the Trader.
