Available after completing the quest [[I Can Hear a Rainbow]], these heretic mages have unlocked the secrets of the forbidden magic of [[Vana'diel]] by creating a pact with the [[Avatar]] known as [[Carbuncle]]. Through his suggestion, these mages have the choice to delve further into the craft and create pacts with up to 12 more of the [[Avatar]]s of [[Vana'diel]] after defeating them in battle to prove their worth. If accepted, Summoners are able to fight alongside them in order to bring peace to [[Vana'diel]].
The Summoner is a versatile job, but it often finds its place as the support role in a standard party.  It provides moderate damage support for the party through skillchaining or magic bursting with avatars. It also provides party buffs along with damage mitigation and healing support.  All with limited enmity gain.  At later levels summoners rely less on skillchains and magic bursts for damage dealing.

== Summons ==
[[Avatar]]s can be obtained through various quests, such as obtaining the appropriate elemental [[Tuning Fork|tuning forks]] for the corresponding element or by acquiring a special [[Key Item]] ([[Moon Bauble]] and [[Vial of Dream Incense]]).  Elemental Spirits can be obtained either through merchants or by defeating certain monsters that drop the scrolls (which can also be bought or sold on the [[Auction House]]).  An initial MP cost is required to summon each [[Avatar]]/Elemental Spirit into this plane of existence, as well as a [[Avatar Perpetuation Cost|perpetuation cost]] to sustain it. The base MP costs are based on the Summoner's level (See [[Avatar Perpetuation Cost]] for details).
