Hi, I have some questions about these 2 skills

First, increase summon points (Advanced Summon Mastery, etc.), does each SP mean anything more than you can summon more monsters? Like increase attack/defense for summons/summoner? Because there are only 3 summons worth using which are Golgon, Blesser and Dark Knight and since Dark Knight consumes no SP it only need just 5 SPs for the other 2 (4 for Golgon and 1 for Blesser), and I have seen many builds which they just max those 3 summons but also max all skills that increase SP (which is about 7, 8 SP)

Next, is Rolling Stone really useful in higher levels? I realize after you get to higher levels with a +20 weapon, you clear the map pretty fast with Smart Shot already with no need of using summons and other skills, but every summoners I met recommend me to max it

I would really appreciate it if anyone can explain this to me

For the SP I'm not sure if it does anything with the HP/DEF/ATK/... of the summon but some people summon more than just Golgon + Blesser so they use the SP for Doonamik f.e.

 

As far as I know Rolling Stone brings a decent amount of points to rank up in Mission Maps. So if you want to get S+ it is pretty good. Also with the Cast Time reduce passive when you got some summons around you, you can cast the spell pretty fast (but still you can't move due to the animation of your character after casting) and the enemies get a 100% stun when they get hit.

 

Everyone can correct me if I'm wrong, I don't have a summoner, so my information is just from others.

Summon points are summon points, no more, but no less. Try and use a Doonamik, it might be useful in more than one way.

 

Rolling stone is, as far as I know, the best crowd control spell in the game : with this and your Z-Z attack, you can stun a group of enemies endlessly. Super-awesome for F7 and bosses that summon tons of monsters at a time (e.g Diablick in Elga's lair).

Pvpers use 3 summons because the more summons you have you can make use for another passive that reduces casting time by a significant amount of time. How do some some summoners instant cast rolling stone or petrify? It's because of more summons. For pve it isn't has nessecary since most efficient dps is from mashing x. Putting more points in the specific summons make them have more hp, so they don't die instantly. You lose that bonus casting speed if you lose summons.

Although in mission maps spamming x alone is not going to give you an SSS whatsoever.

In pvp rolling stone is a must. In pve it's very useful to either mob/and or get ranked in mission maps. 5/5 will shorten the casting time.
