Summoners have the magic that allow them to summon mystical beasts or spirits. There are over 100 different types of creatures that can be summoned. However, in order to prevent the class from being almighty and omnipotent, the maximum number of summoned creatures that a player can summon at any moment is twelve. Some high-level beasts can only be summoned at special locations after completing their specific quests.

  +
'''Elementaler - Spirit Technique User'''
  +
*Good at summoning elemental spirits such as [[Salamander|Servant Summon: Salamander]] and [[Undine|Servant Summon: Undine]]. The summoned spirit uses Elemental Bolt automatically, while powerful magical attacks Elemental Ray and Elemental Blast are available for use at command. The charm of this build is that it almost matches up to the magical offensive abilities of a [[Sorcerer]]. Attacking the weak point of an enemies attribute is the very basics of magic attacks, so Elementalers will summon/switch the appropriate spirit to most effective attribute.
  +
*After the [[Catastrophe]], it has become apparent that they have mundane versatility as well, because spirits can supply things like water and fire (for heat). Demand for Summoners are increasing due to this.
  +
*[[Azalea]] uses this build.
  +
  +
'''Necromancer - Undead Technique User'''
  +
*Good at summoning undead monsters such as Servant Summon: Skeleton and Servant Summon: Phantom. Death Scythe is an aggressive physical attack, and Graveyard Walk allows you to direct the undead to concentrate on one enemy. It is also good at confusing the enemy and for hiding someone. Although the image of a Necromancer is one of a "villain" that manipulates corpses, this build is popular from the era the act of subduing your enemies and making them your army was cool.
  +
*Though some will acquire the [[Necromancer]] subclass for its extra perks, the two are not directly related.
  +
*After the Catastrophe, there are many Necromancers who can't summon their servants due to fear.
  +
*[[Roe2]] and [[Yomi]] mainly use this build.
  +
  +
'''Puppet Master - Puppeteer'''
  +
*Good at summoning magical creatures which were created artificially such as Servant Summon: Golem and Servant Summon: Slime. Magical creatures have excellent durability in general, so these servants make good walls to block enemy attacks. Protective skills like Guardian Fist which can protect an ally from damage, and Scapedoll which allows the summon to take some of the damage in your place, are available for use.
  +
*When the party's advanced guard is insufficient, or during solo play, Puppet Master is the most useful. Golems are high in demand because it has high defense and durability compared to the others. Summoners are often seen hiding behind Golems while casting magic.
  +
*[[Hisako]] uses this build.
  +
  +
'''Beast Tamer - Lord of Phantom Beasts'''
  +
*Good at summoning phantom beasts such as [[Carbuncle|Servant Summon: Carbuncle]] and Servant Summon: Unicorn. Not only do they excel at healing using Phantasmal Heal to help, the high speed movement magic Phantasmal Ride lets you ride on the back of the phantom beast. There are many Summoners who use a whip as their weapon to fit the image of a tamer.
  +
*Healers are in high demand and sometimes healers go missing in impromptu parties. At these times the Beast Tamer steps in. Of course, even in a party with a healer, it can be of significant help as a sub-healer.
  +
*[[Sasameyuki]] uses this build.

Summoner is one of the classes that can be selected in Elder Tale.

Overview

Summoners have the magic that allows them to summon mystical beasts or spirits. There are over 100 different types of creatures that can be summoned. However, in order to prevent the class from being almighty and omnipotent, the maximum number of summoned creatures (which will stay out until called back) that a player can summon at any moment is one, and the maximum number of summoned creatures that can be registered is twelve. Some high-level beasts can only be summoned at special locations after completing their specific quests. While the number of summoned creatures out at any moment is one, there are limited-time summons of which there can be infinite amounts of, so long as the caster's MP allows for it.

Due to game-balancing issues, summoned creatures only have a third of the strength of a Normal-ranked monster. However, releasing the contract will return the creature to its original strength, as seen with the Garnet Dragon.

Summoners themselves have extremely low HP and defense stats. However, due to the wide variety of creatures that can be summoned and the ways these creatures can interact with other beings and the environment, a Summoner's role within a party can include offense, healing, or support.  This inherent flexibility makes it an extremely popular class among players, including solo players.[1]

Sample Builds

Summoners can generally be categorized into four sub-specialties: Elementalists, Necromancers, Puppet Masters, and Beast Tamers.[1]

Elementaler - Spirit Technique User

  • Good at summoning elemental spirits such as Servant Summon: Salamander and Servant Summon: Undine. The summoned spirit uses Elemental Bolt automatically, while powerful magical attacks Elemental Ray and Elemental Blast are available for use at command. The charm of this build is that it almost matches up to the magical offensive abilities of a Sorcerer. Attacking the weak point of an enemies attribute is the very basics of magic attacks, so Elementalers will summon/switch the appropriate spirit to most effective attribute.
  • After the Catastrophe, it has become apparent that they have mundane versatility as well, because spirits can supply things like water and fire (for heat). Demand for Summoners are increasing due to this.
  • Azalea uses this build.

Necromancer - Undead Technique User

  • Good at summoning undead monsters such as Servant Summon: Skeleton and Servant Summon: Phantom. Death Scythe is an aggressive physical attack, and Graveyard Walk allows you to direct the undead to concentrate on one enemy. It is also good at confusing the enemy and for hiding someone. Although the image of a Necromancer is one of a "villain" that manipulates corpses, this build is popular from the era the act of subduing your enemies and making them your army was cool.
  • Though some will acquire the Necromancer subclass for its extra perks, the two are not directly related.
  • After the Catastrophe, there are many Necromancers who can't summon their servants due to fear.
  • Roe2 and Yomi mainly use this build.

Puppet Master - Puppeteer

  • Good at summoning magical creatures which were created artificially such as Servant Summon: Golem and Servant Summon: Slime. Magical creatures have excellent durability in general, so these servants make good walls to block enemy attacks. Protective skills like Guardian Fist which can protect an ally from damage, and Scapedoll which allows the summon to take some of the damage in your place, are available for use.
  • When the party's advanced guard is insufficient, or during solo play, Puppet Master is the most useful. Golems are high in demand because it has high defense and durability compared to the others. Summoners are often seen hiding behind Golems while casting magic.
  • Hisako uses this build.

Beast Tamer - Lord of Phantom Beasts

  • Good at summoning phantom beasts such as Servant Summon: Carbuncle and Servant Summon: Unicorn. Not only do they excel at healing using Phantasmal Heal to help, the high speed movement magic Phantasmal Ride lets you ride on the back of the phantom beast. There are many Summoners who use a whip as their weapon to fit the image of a tamer.
  • Healers are in high demand and sometimes healers go missing in impromptu parties. At these times the Beast Tamer steps in. Of course, even in a party with a healer, it can be of significant help as a sub-healer.
  • Sasameyuki uses this build.
