summoning is a skill that should be comming out soon. The skill is like magic / hunter , you will be able to 'summon' up monsters like pets to follow you arround / fight etc
The higher the level the better the monster will be :p

Sounds much like a 'lock from WoW tbh. Jagex really really must start coming up with their own ideas soon.

Nobody knows how to train Summoning and what it's going to be like because Jagex hasn't give much information.
All we know is that you can summon creatures (well duh) which will assist you in most (or all) skills. It won't be cheap but not expensive either, but the higher summoning spells will be expensive ofcourse. Training it will be slow, we don't know how slow or how expensive it's really going to be.
Summoning and hunter will be linked like fishing and cooking or smithing and mining.
Every 8 levels you'll gain a combat level.
Summoned monsters will only stay around for a limited time, depending on your summoning level and the monster.
You get dogs at level 1.
In February we get another load of monsters, they're not releasing them all at once to prevent loads of lag.

So basically we know nothing, which is exactly what Jagex wants.

Doesn't take that long to read the development diaries. =/

Jagex decided to make summoning 3 years ago. ;)

It'll help fight monsters with you and it'll assist you with most (or all) skills. Don't ask me how, Jagex didn't tell us.

Oo that would be cool if your smithing or something get your pet to perhaps go to the bank for you.

Yeah, I wonder how they'll assist us. I can only think of banking items and fighting. =/ Maybe a dragon pet will superheat ores for you? Or a monster with a head like an anvil? lol

Jagex said that's what they were planning to do but because of the Lunar and Ancient books they made a whole new skill. :P

it relates to summoning creatures and apparently jagex had thought of this ideas ages ago but they didnt release it and now theyre going to release it and itll change the max combat level from 126 to 138.

Yes but Jagex isn't releasing it because of the succes of Wow. They've always wanted to something like this but were limited to the technology (or lack of it) when they had RuneScape classic. ;) :P (Still trying to find a name for you lol)
