Summon Beast has a percentage-based [[spirit]] [[reservation]] that varies depending on the power of the monster that was tamed as well as the number of monster modifiers it has. The quality of this gem is changed to {{c|mod|(0–10)% reduced Reservation}} and the gem loses the duration tag.

If the Tame Beast gem is [[corrupted]], the process of conversion into the Summon Beast gem will remove the corrupted tag and any associated corruption outcomes. The one exception to this is a change in gem quality, which is retained despite the corrupted tag being removed. Due to this it is possible to have a Summon Beast gem that has both 23% Quality '''and''' +1 to Level from Corruption.{{bug}}
Summon Beast is account-bound; this prevents the item from being [[trade]]d to or picked up by other players. It can still be stored in your [[stash]] and transferred to your other characters.
