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. | Summoning is a skill that allows you to create Summoning Tablets for various familiars which provide bonuses to various tasks while equipped.

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. | Summoning XP can be gained much more quickly by using the Summoning Tablets once created.
