Summoning Guide

Summoning is a skill which allows you to summon familiars.
familiars will help you when you're fighting with other npc's or if you're pking in multipk. 
each familiar apart got their own "special attack" which can be used to kill other npc's / players or gives you a skill boost.
Summoning is also a skill that you do need 99 in to get a Max Cape and you also need 200,000,000 XP for the Completionist Cape.
==How to Train Summoning==
You need 4 types of items in order to train Summoning. These item types are; Spirit Shards, Spirit charms, Empty pouches and Secondary ingredients. The secondary ingredient and the empty pouches (::item 12155) are spawnable, but you'll need to obtain the spirit shards/charms through other means.
To create a pouch, use the secondary ingredient (for example the Wolf Bones) on the empty pouch. You do not need to be in any particular location to train the skill.
