Summoner
The Summoner class is a different class in general. This class involves you using summons or pets to fight for you. This class also includes whips, which are a basic
weapon for summoners along with summons. There are many summonses in the game, ones that dash, shoot, or hit enemies, and many of these are good at certain points of the game. Since you
are using pets to fight for you, all you have to do is not get hit, You can help out by attacking with your whip, but summoners leave the summons to do the damage. This class can technically
be used by anyone since all players get a minion slot, but playing as a full-on summoner is worth it. This class may be tough at first, and you may need to rely on whips, but once you get a good staff,
you shouldn't have too much trouble. This class also includes sentries, which are minions that don't move and are never really used. This class is pretty fun to use, and easy since you don't need to do any work.
Armor
Armor in this class is pretty weak and doesn't have a theme. All the armors in this class give you at least one minion slot and boost to your minions, like damage and speed. It doesn't give you any buffs. here are some examples.
|
This is Stardust Armor, the best summoner armor in the game, it's good and powerful. This armor gives a lot of buffs and minion slots to summons, but it also summons a guardian. This guardian
attacks anything in our path and demolishes it. This guardian can be useful half the time when the enemy is too far away, and sometimes it can be useless, but it's still really good.

This is Spider armor, the first summoner armor you can craft in hard mode. Although this armor doesn't give an armor bonus, It's a really good summoner armor set. This armor does have a spider staff that can be crafted with the same materials, it's nothing big like the stardust armor.
Like all armor sets, it gives you minion slots boosted damage for minions, and bad defense. This armor does carry a lot of summoners, even though it has a bad defense.

Weapons
There are not a lot of weapons to choose from in this class, It's mainly just whips, summoner staffs, and sentries, not much else. Whips do inflict a debuff called "tagging" that focuses all the summons on one enemy, and Whips
are also similar to swords because their speed can be increased with melee accessories, and give the same debuffs as some swords. Staff do use mana, but not a lot of it, so make sure to have some mana. Overall, there's not a lot to choose from, which could be a good thing for some people.

Minions
Here we have the Stardust Dragon staff. This summons dashes at enemies, can go through walls, and deal great damage. As with all minions, it takes one minion slot to summon, but can be longer by stacking more dragon minions. This is easily one of the best summons in the game and is used by almost every player.

Sentries
This is the ballista Staff, the only sentry that people use before they kill the moon lord. Like all Sentries, they don't move and the damage is good, but not moving is not so viable in this game. Nobody uses this since it is bought from the tavern keep with defender medals, which you can only get through the old one's army event.

Whips
This is the Kaleidoscope, the best whip right now. Whips are used to help control your minions and get them to attack a certain enemy and to deal damage yourself instead of letting your minions do all the work. Whips are similar to swords, because the whip speed can be increased with melee accessories, and they can also inflict certain debuffs that melee swords would.

Conclusion
That's what you need to know about the Summoner class. This class is really fun and played by a lot of people, It can be tough not getting hit, and there are multiple ways of using this class. By focusing entirely on minion benefits, or maybe whip benefits, but in the end, It's a really fun class to play.
This class may go down a strange path, with progression and getting better gear, and even have a super strong summoner weapon that can be obtained by completely a challenge. But it's still one of the most played classes in this game.
Although the beginning may be tough, and you need to rely on whips to help you out, once you get some decent gear and weapons, you will be all right.
All of this does come with a cost of having bad defense making it a priority to dodge and not get hit, and having a tough start, This will all be worth it.
