Summons

In the game, a key mechanic is summons or summoning, in which you can summon all sorts of people and creatures to help you fight.

Location
You can equip and un-equip summons in the players Character Tab near the bottom right, and you can see what summons you have above your health bar, and your SP points are to the left of them.

How To Use
When you hit an enemy you gain SP points or Summon Points. You can check how many you have on the left of your summons. When you have enough SP you can summon an ally to fight for you, you will know you have enough SP when the summon icon glows. You can also check the SP requirement in the summons description in the inventory menu. Summoning a summon will subtract their SP cost from your total SP.

If a summons SP cost is greater then your max SP limit, you can no longer summon it, unless you upgrade your max limit in the Character Tab.

Controlling
When you summon a summon, if you press the same key used to summon it, you can bring up a small hud in the middle of your screen. You will have six options to use for controlling your summon. There will also be a white or yellow sphere in the center of your screen, that is where you are currently pointed at, if the sphere is white, that means it didn't find a target, if it is yellow, it will be bigger and shows that you have selected a target, depending on if you have a target or not will effect how the controlling options work.

[Auto]: Sets the summon to attack and move automatically.

[Follow]/[Force Attack]: Makes the summon follow the player or whatever the player has targeted. In case of targetting an enemy, [Force Attack] option appears, making a summon target the selected enemy.

[Despawn]: Despawns the summon. (You do not get summon points back from despawning)

[Cancel]: Exit out of the command menu.

[Stand Still]: Makes the summon stay at the current spot where it's standing.

[Move To]: Just like Stand Still, except the summon will move to where the player is pointing first.

To undo Follow, Stand Still, or Move To, just set the summons back to Auto.

As of 7/27/19 Summons have gained a new set of commands for you to execute, these commands can be seen above the normal list of commands in a row. The commands work as such.

{Default} - The summon attacks normally.

{Mobs} - The summon will focus first on mob type enemies rather than buildings.

{Ranged Mobs} - The summon will attack ranged enemies first before anything else.

{Bosses and Players} - The summon will target Bosses and enemy players first.

{Buildings} - The summon will attack enemy buildings and structures first.
