What weapon is perfect for summoners?.

Can summoners use any weapons type to the fullest or mage weapons only like mages can do. What weapon is perfect for summoners?.

Any archetype can use any weapon. I don't suppose we know enough yet about the Summoner or the weapons to know which weapon will work best.

Rivalzs

In my opinion I would say a Spellbook.

Probably the same thing lion-tamers use, when in that cage:

A whip and a long-legged barstool!

Rod, it is like a ruler a nun would use to slap their students hands when they get out of line.
I imagine summons are all delinquents that could stand to learn to behave.

Sumo....

I find the door myself.

Any character can use any weapon. In regards to your question about which type of weapon might be the most efficient? There is simply not enough information yet about the game to know, or even speculate on that.

Sathrago

Generally Ranged weapons will be the most ideal, where defensive weapons will overtake this if they provide utility like dashes and escapes. Summoners do not generally like to be focused when they could have a pet taking that damage instead, so the further away or harder to kill you are, the longer your pet has to murder whatever you are trying to kill.

The 3 types of weapons I've seen the most for summoner types are

- Rods
- Books/Tomes
- Staffs

For the lolz, why not some sort of giant quill or piece of chalk with which to draw summoning circles?

Voidwalkers

Remote control. I summon drones.

I guess it depends on your secondary archetype? The typical magical summoner might use rods tomes staffs, but a beast master could use ... I dunno, bows & whips & crossbows? and a bladecaller should probably use ... blades?

At the end of the day you can train in whatever weapon you want, that's Ashes.

Damokles

Two handed hammer. You need to be able to give your summons a good bonk on the head if they misbehave!

Khronus

Gloves would be an interesting take of primary weapons. With an elegant focus. It's probably going to end up being a staff though : (

halbarz

greatsword, spellbook, staff

KeeperBrGO

Summoner with buff aria making those summoned qnd allies more powerful.


Like a shield that distributes your character's resistance to his summoned, or as a staff whenever you use a spell your summoned are 3 seconds stronger.

Summones can do alot of things Just has to be inplemented

Sum12hate

Depends on subclass but I like the idea of summoner with bow, sit back and poke while the summons do the heavy lifting

Lycancoffee

Let me tell you about this weapon you can get from a hotel room in Cyberpunk....

McMackMuck

Cattle prod, enchanted with lightning. Great for "Crowd Control" too!

Free-range, non-GMO eggs. Put one in your sling and, "Smack!" You got yourself a dead summoner. 😆🤣

Enigmatic Sage

do you get to alter your summons and quite possibly their gear where applicable? or we just talking about gear for the summoner?

it's a very dualistic archetype/class with a wide spectrum of options depending on choices and preferences

IE
Beastmaster - altering your beasts or armouring them with abilities/gear/spells?
Blood Warden - altering your own items or enhancing them with magic
Conjurer - altering your conjured summons with enhancements via magic/summoned items
Enchanter - enchantments and enhancements to music/songs
Necromancer - undead/ethereal enhancements and abhorrent alterations and spells
Shadowmancer - ghost/ethereal/shadow-like enhancements with stealth elements
Spellmancer - elemental/arcane embodiments of spells and enhancements
Wild blade - summon/cast additional magical weapons as well as personal enhancements with effects.


Cant think of a perfect weapon as there is multiple scenarios and class structures for the archetype and playstyle

I may have veered off from the intended purpose of the thread :P
