This is the Regular Summoning Guide, the guide for Ironman/ Hardcore Ironman players is found Here.

Summoning is a skill that focuses on calling familiars from the Spirit Plane by creating and using summoning pouches. Most farmiliars are useless but there are a few that make Summoning worth training.

Summoning operates similarly to Prayer, requiring points to summon familiars and utilise their abilities. Summoning points do not automatically recharge, but they can be recharged by interacting with an Obelisk, or by drinking a summoning or Super restore potion.

Getting Supplies

To train Summoning, you will need Charms and Pouches.

Charms

There are 4 types of charms that can be used for Summoning.

Gold Charms

Gold Charms are the easiest and most common charm to come by in Grinderscape as they are dropped by very low level monsters. A good NPC to kill in order to collect Gold Charms are Yaks, located on Neitiznot (South). These Charms are generally only used in the beginning of Summoning training.

Green Charms

The next step up from Gold Charms are Green Charms. They are also quite easy to collect as the NPC's that drop these are not too difficult to kill. Monsters such as the Bloodveld or Dust Devil drop it every time one of them is killed. However, the easiest way to obtain Green Charms is to kill the Bandits at Bandit Camp in the desert, if you have a Charming Imp, you can completely AFK there while collecting charms.

Crimson Charms

Crimson Charms aren't as common as the other two listed above, but they are also not rare. These charms are dropped by a variety of high leveled NPC's such as Dark Beasts, Dragons, and even by some Bosses. These Charms offer the best experience and should be used for the bulk of your training.

Blue Charms

Blue Charms are the rarest of all the Charms, they do not offer as much experience as Crimson Charms however. No NPC drops these Charms 100% of the time. The upside to their rarity is that they are not even that useful. So you are not missing out on anything if you do not find any.

Pouches

Pouches are needed to make every Summoning Pouch, Luckily Pouches are very cheap, and simple to obtain

First of all, you need to go to South Neitznot.

When you get there, head west outside the city center, and you will see an NPC called Hassan who is located next to a trapdoor.

Hassan sells the pouches for a single gold coin each.

Training

There are two places where you can train Summoning, you can either climb down the trapdoor right next to Hassan, or teleport to the Donator Zone.

There is no real benefit to training in either place although the Obelisk in the Donator Zone is closer to a bank.

Now to train Summoning all you need to do is right-click on the obelisk, and choose the 'infuse pouch' option.

When you click, all the options of familiar pouches that you can create will appear.

You can get even more experience if you turn the pouches you create into special move scrolls for that specific monster, to do this simply click on the small button at the top left of the menu board. This will then allow you to make your scrolls.

Do not use use the "make-all" option when turning pouches into scrolls, as you will only receieve the experience for one of the pouches. Instead you should make them one by one. Although this takes much longer, it will be worth it.
