Summon skill type icon as seen in level-up powers
Summon is an extra type of skills in Soulstone Survivors. These skills allow players to conjure minions, constructs, or temporary entities that fight autonomously on their behalf, scaling with the player's attributes and power-ups.
Summon-type skills are found in various primary skill types, especially ones with elemental property like 
Shadow, 
Electric, or 
Fire. Some summon skills feature unique traits that modify their behavior:
Cunning: Units summoned by this skill will prioritize valuable targets, such as Elite enemies and Lords of the Void.- Fortitude: Units summoned by this skill have their damage multiplied by a percentage amount based on the player's maximum health.
- Taunt: Units summoned by this skill can be directly targeted by enemies, distracting them from attacking the player. Enemies will still attack the player if they are too close.
Summoned Units[]
Summoned units inherit key stats such as 
Damage Modifier, 
Multi Cast Chance, and even on-hit effects, making them highly synergistic with debuff-centric or utility-heavy builds. Although they operate independently, summons follow simple logic, typically attacking the nearest enemy, or remaining near the player if ranged.
Plague Rats, can expire, explode, or refresh upon re-summoning, while others persist as long as their summoning limit allows. Summon skills are particularly effective in attrition-based builds, large enemy waves, or setups that benefit from having many hit instances (e.g., applying multiple stacks of debuffs per second).
Most Summon skills benefit heavily from external buff auras and passive enhancements, especially those gained from Powers and Runes.
