Notes

• The netch will remain for its full duration, even if the skill is removed from your skill bar (most likely via weapon swap). Thus, it can be useful to keep it on your secondary weapon swap and only switch over to summon when needed, freeing up the slots on your main skill bar for other things.
• Due to this skill's zero cost, casting this with the Bond With Nature passive unlocked can be a good way to regain health when out of resources.
• Blue Betty is a recommended morph for the Warden Initiate, Beast Caller, and Master Herbalist builds, while Bull Netch is recommended for Savage Stalker and Guardian of the Wild.
