C1 Summoner Paths: Warlock, Elemental Summoner and Phantom Summoner

Compare the three second-class servitor paths through native C1 skills, running costs, experience share and their 3-in-1 transfers.

L2Tools guideUpdated 2026-09-23

Pick the branch before picking a creature

Human Wizard leads to Warlock, Elven Wizard to Elemental Summoner, and Dark Wizard to Phantom Summoner. All three share many C1 servitor tools; the named creatures and later branch skills supply the more useful comparison. A player who wants to develop one pet-like companion across sessions should read the separate pet system instead. A servitor is a timed, skill-created ally with a crystal cost and its own reward rules.

Compare the creatures recorded for each class

At the first mapped second-class step, Warlock can learn Summon Kat the Cat and Summon Mew the Cat; Elemental Summoner has Summon Unicorn Boxer and Summon Unicorn Mirage; Phantom Summoner has Summon Shadow and Summon Silhouette. These are pairs to investigate, not an instruction to summon both together. Read each skill's required item and the server's actual servitor behavior, then test the creature against a target the player can survive without risking an expensive failure.

Budget the summon before measuring damage

Chronicle 1 changed servitor duration, crystal cost and the character's XP share for specific summons. A stronger-looking kill can be poor progression if its crystal bill or XP reduction dominates the full session. Open the dedicated cost guide for the recorded C1 groups, then compare ten real kills with the same route and supply budget. Check the exact named creature: the lower-XP and higher-XP categories are not interchangeable, and custom servers may implement different rates.

Keep the servitor alive and useful

Servitor Heal and Servitor Recharge appear across all three mapped paths, as do defensive servitor buffs. Their value depends on using them before the companion collapses, not after the owner has already lost control of the pull. If the creature takes the first hit, leave space for the caster to move and recover MP. A new skill or a better weapon may help, but disciplined target selection usually protects both the owner and the crystal investment.

Treat Transfer Pain's first level as disputed

The native C1 class mapping includes Transfer Pain on a level-40 row for these summoners, while the archived Chronicle 1 skill update lists its introduction at level 56. Both identify a damage-sharing servitor skill, but they do not support a confident level-40 unlock claim. Verify the skill trainer and server implementation before building a low-level survival plan around it. Use ordinary positioning and an escape option in the meantime.

Use a trial that includes XP, MP and crystals

Create comparable C1 builds at the intended level, using the same armor and the same hunting area. Run separate short sessions for the available summons and record crystal consumption, character XP gained, owner damage taken, MP used on servitor recovery and total time. This is more informative than comparing an isolated attack animation. It also tells a party whether the summoner's contribution is control, steady damage or a safer route into harder targets.

Follow the proper Trial, Testimony and Test

All three destinations share Trial of the Scholar and Test of the Summoner. Their race-linked Testimony differs: Trust for Warlock, Life for Elemental Summoner and Fate for Phantom Summoner. Open the correct 3-in-1 transfer guide to combine quest travel, NPCs and proof items. A shared final test does not let a character substitute another race's testimony.

Keep in mind

Transfer Pain's mapped first learn level conflicts with the archived C1 update; check the running server.
Summon cost and XP share must be checked for the specific servitor and server.
This comparison does not rank servitor damage across different equipment or encounter types.
