Destructoid has published a guide outlining the best Summoner/Necromancer build for players of the game SpiritVale, focusing on how to make the most of the class's ability to raise companions and, from level 50 onwards, undead minions. The guide matters to players seeking to optimise their character, as it recommends prioritising summon strength over personal combat skills, offering a distinct playstyle from other classes.

The build centres on gear that boosts summon power and survivability, including the Jack-o'Lantern headgear, the Soulbinder set for armour, and the Corporeal artifact set, paired with accessories such as the Bronze Crescent, Iron Ankh and Grim Reaper card. Key skills include Summon Mastery and Skeleton Mastery to strengthen companions, alongside Soul Strike, Dissonance Well, Guardian Bond, Bone Spear and Bone Spikes for support and damage. The author particularly recommends summoning the Abomination, Skeleton, Mage and Wraith, with the Wraith cast last due to its long cooldown.
