{{SmIconLink|Longsword_%2B1_Icon.png|Phalar Aluve}} can debuff nearby enemies with a {{SmIconLink|Bane_Icon.png|Bane}}-like effect and an extra {{DamageText | 1d4 | Thunder}} on hit or, alternatively, buff nearby allies with a {{SmIconLink|Bless_Icon.png|Bless}}-like effect.  On current patch, the Sing or Shriek effects persist even when Phalar Aluve is un-equipped.

{{SmIconLink|Hellrider's Pride Icon.png|Hellrider's Pride}} provides {{SmIconLink|Blade Ward Icon.png|Blade Ward}} when healing a character or creature.  Will not effect undead summons.

{{SmIconLink|Voss' Silver Sword.png|Duke Ravengard's Longsword}} grants nearby allies temporary hit points equal to your Charisma modifier when you land a killing blow.

{{SmIconLink|Mace_PlusTwo_Icon.png|Devotee's Mace}} provides turn-based healing in an AoE around the wielder.  Will not effect undead summons.

{{SmIconLink|Spell_Abjuration_GlobeOfInvulnerability_Icon.png|Globe of Invulnerability}} can be used to protect summoned creatures.

{{SmIconLink|Abyss Beckoners Icon.png|Abyss Beckoners}} provides resistance to *all* damage types to *all* summoned creatures while the effect is active, but will cause the creatures to go mad if they fail a Wisdom Saving Throw.  I would recommend that you start using this probably after you enter Act 3, once you have enough summoned creatures that the madness debuff isn't super debilitating, and possibly only if your summoned creatures really need the durability boost.  You can turn the passive effect on and off without consuming an action, so use the {{SmIconLink|Abyss Beckoners Icon.png|Abyss Beckoners}} to prevent big AoE damage, and then turn the effect off once enemies have exhausted their spell slots.

{{SmIconLink|Circle of Bones Icon.png|Circle of Bones}} provides permanent physical resistance to all nearby allied undead as long as the circlet is equipped.

==Equipment that Summon Creatures==

{{SmIconLink|Bitter_Divorce_Icon.png|Second Marriage}} can be obtained if you choose to keep the {{SmIconLink|Bitter_Divorce_Icon.png|Bitter Divorce}} wand at the culmination of the [[Save Mayrina]] questline, and allows you to summon [[Connor Vinderblad]] as a zombie.  Mayrina must survive the fight with the Hag.

{{SmIconLink|Moonlantern Icon.png|Shadow Lantern}} can only be obtained by interacting with the broken Moonlantern located in Balthazar's study in Moonrise Towers while Gale is in your party.  Allows you to cast {{SmIconLink|Conjure_Shadow_Lantern_Wraith_Icon.png|Conjure Shadow Lantern Wraith}}.  The wraith only persists while the lantern is equipped, unfortunately.

 

 

 

{{SmIconLink|Scroll_of_Summon_Quasit_Icon.png|Scroll of Summon Quasit}} or {{SmIconLink|Scroll_of_Summon_Quasit_Icon.png|Find Familiar: Cheeky Quasit}} summons a unique NPC, Shovel.  Spellcasters can gain access to this spell permanently once per Short Rest by choosing the right dialogue options.

{{SmIconLink|Find_Familiar_Cat_Icon.png|Find Familiar:Scratch}} if you have Scratch in your camp.  I think you may need to speak with him using {{SmIconLink|Speak_With_Animals_Icon.png|Speak With Animals}} at least once.

{{SmIconLink|Action_FungalInfestation.png|Fungal Investation}} is learned automatically by {{SmIconLink|Class_Druid_Spores_Badge_Icon.png|Circle of the Spores}} [[Druid]] at class level 6, and can be used as a reaction up to four times per Long Rest.  Does not require or consume spell slots.
