From reading your feedback, I’ve seen a lot of discussion regarding the way the new Summoning icon functions. I would like to take a moment to address a few of the raised issues and answer a few of your questions.
The Summoning tab will not be returning. This is because when it was a tab, it behaved differently to the rest of the tabs – all the other tabs, once you have gained access to them for the first time and when they are not disabled for cutscenes etc., are constantly available and useful for some purpose regardless of your character’s status in game. Conversely, the Summoning tab was only available or useful when you have a Summoning follower with you. This was inconsistent with the rest of the icons, and a large tab alongside all of the critical, always-relevant menu tabs is not the appropriate place for this functionality.
That said, we recognise that some of you are experiencing usability issues with the way the new Summoning icon functions, and apologise for any detriment this may be causing to your gaming experience. We are currently working on implementing a new system that will allow the player to choose which function to have as their left-click option, however there is a complex update to Summoning currently in the works, and so we will release the change alongside this update, as the changes cannot be separated at this stage of development.
I hope this clears up your questions.
