Summons Tier List
Dinoblade summons tier list: Kira the Exile vs Axe passives, summon cooldowns, and best summon picks for demo and full game.
How Summons Work
Defeating bosses adds them to your summoning page. Press the summon key (default 4) to call a ghost dinosaur for a powerful attack on cooldown (~25 seconds). Each summon also provides a passive bonus while equipped — only one passive active at a time.
Mini-boss summons are available immediately. Alpha boss summons require special full-game unlocks.

Demo Tier List
S Tier — Axe: +10% damage and stamina regen passive. Best for Kasei and sustained fights. S Tier (full game) — Shield: Gaming Bolt's favorite summon — boosts stamina regeneration when you successfully parry. A Tier — Stick: slightly wider parry window. A Tier — Kira the Exile: solid burst summon for early fights.
Full game expands with Speed, Tank, and more Alpha summons. The Necromancer achievement requires unlocking all ghost summons. Summons still feel like optional burst buttons in many reviews — use them on stagger windows rather than randomly.
