Summoning Question

Tue 02 Jun 2026, 07:31

Hi all,

Looking for clarification on Summoning. As I read it, a character with the power can summon allies and has those allies until they are killed. They then could summon allies again.

The counter argument is that the character can summon allies each and every round. This seems to be a wildly unbalanced interpretation and unlikely to me considering a feature of the power is to summon additional allies.

A character with major summoning could summon three minions with 8 fight, 4 agility and 8 STR each and every round. Those are better stats than a lot of heroes in the game. With them helping each other their attack is 10 x 6.

I feel this interpretation of the power seems unlikely as the power itself has already been nerfed somewhat as the powered allies feature now takes a point of stress where as in the initial beta it did not.

Can we get some clarification from the game designers?

Thank you.

Clarification was provided for the SUMMONING power in the final print version that will be released soon.

The final text reads:

Summoned allies last for a few minutes, until they become broken, until you become broken, or until you take a full action to dismiss them. You cannot summon additional allies while you still have summoned allies active.

There was also a final change to the Powered allies feature, limiting the powers that can be chosen to the Attack, Defense, or Movement types, or alternatively one talent.

Thanks!
