Tier List Criteria

Summon rankings are based off of two things: their longevity and effectiveness in combat. This means that what a good summon needs is to be sturdy enough to tank hits and soak up damage, and deal enough damage in order to significantly aid the player.

Best Summons Ranking Explanations

Summon Summon Information
Korbis
Bear
Ability: Bear AllyBear Ally
Type: Ability
Duration: 30 seconds
Summons a tanky Bear that is able to deal damage, taunt nearby enemies, and be sturdy enough to last nearly its whole duration. Can also be upgraded to increase its duration and does not need a specific piece of equipment to use.
Tagghost, Briot, and Tym
Skeleton Trio
Item: Charm of BonesCharm of Bones
Type: Amulet
Duration: 60 seconds each
Offers the longest base duration at 60 seconds of uptime. Deals decent damage and most of the skeletons are tanky enough to take hits. However, the biggest downside is that this is only available by Late Game.
Dalas
Ruinous Blight
Item: StoneheartStoneheart
Type: Amulet
Duration: 35 seconds
Offers damage and is incredibly tanky, meaning this summon usually survives until the end of its duration. However, its main duration is only 35 seconds, and it does not attack frequently due to the slow attack speed, meaning this is more of a damage sponge.
Herrkafer
Beetle
Type: Shield
Duration: 35 seconds
Summons a beetle when executing perfect parries on opponents. It excels at drawing aggro away from surrounding opponents after the perfect parry, but cannot be stacked nor can the duration be refreshed.
Lilyth, Scaedu, and Alef
Crystal Eater Spiderlings Trio
Item: Crystalline EggCrystalline Egg
Type: Trinket
Duration: 35 seconds each
The trio of Spiders can split up aggro against most opponents and draw enemies away from you, but are extremely squishy and can easily be wiped out by AoE attacks.
Huginn
Phantom
ChanterChanter's Pipes
Necropants SuperbNecropants
Duration: 35 seconds
The phantom deals frost accumulation per hit, making it useful for applying Frost to targets, but suffers from slow attacks that emphasize its low duration.
Eld Maegy
Revenant
Crystalline EggRevenant Bell Collar Duration: 35 seconds
The Revenant is a humanoid summon that can be useful for soaking up damage and applying some raw damage of its own. Best used as an extra ally on the field, but does not offer much otherwise.
