Quick Questions on Summons in General

How long do they last? My mechanic golem doesnt seem to last to long. Havent timed it but its no where near 2 buff rounds I dont believe.

Does the duration go up the higher I level?

Do other summons stay out longer? (Necro summons?)

I do have enough crystals on me, I thought as long as I had crystals it would stay out..

nc extended the duration recently, and yes my summon last 3-4 buff rounds

I know they extended the duration on the servitors for the True Summoners, did they do it for the rest of the servitors as well? I never heard....

THey only last 1 hour ( battle, ) or *4 that time if they aint in battle for true usmmoners.

For WS, DA ( Maby necro not sure ) it's 20 min in battle mode, or 80 if you aint in batlte mode.

i beleive necros are still on hte 80 minute base timer

Actually my summons stays out for 1.5 hours in battle. Before the extention it was 30 minutes. X 3 for the extention= 1.5 hours

I used to complain that at the end of the buff round I would have to go ahead and re-summon even though there was @10 minutes left on his timer, otherwise his buffs ran out in the middle of the next buff round.

Thats because it's not always in battle, eg when your buffing, like 1 min free of no action and so fort, a summmoner who has his summon almost all the time in battle it doesn't last much longer then 1 hour. My friend usually always resummon at every third buff round as he can't keep it up more then 2-3 min more then that.

It is definitely 1 hour in battle, but as you may lose some time running around and buffing the mileage you get from a summon is slightly more than 3 buffrounds - meaning i usually unsummon after one hour to get a fresh cat to buff and feed.

yes the base timer for a pure summoner after 40 is 240 minutes and the timer runs 4 times as fast during combat. In normal soloing my pets last about 65 minutes.

A for a DA is about 20-25 mins (a little longer than a buff round) during soloing in combat mode.

**** didnt realize they increased true summoner time already *ws nerf grumble*

mechanic golem last exactly 20 mins if its always in combat mode
i trigger a macro as i am summoning and my se buffs me mental shield and then does full melee buffs for the golem
within 5 seconds of mental shield fadeing the golem disapears
i hunt where i basically dont have to move to start attacking another mob
non-combat mode lasts about 1 hour (never really had it out doing nothing for that long)

i have my own general summon question. do summon buffs and regular buffs stack?

you mean like the buffs i cast on the pet? because no those don't. But the ones cast BY pets such as blessing of queen or of seraphim DO stack.
