Summoning XP can be gained much more quickly by using the Summoning Tablets once created. XP is gained whenever a tablet charge is used. For non-combat tablets, this occurs whenever the player does an action in the relevant skill. For combat tablets, this occurs each time the familiar attack bar fills, which takes 3 seconds. Additionally, {{ItemIcon|Occultist}} and {{ItemIcon|Witch}} Summoning Tablets will only be consumed, and provide XP, through combat, not {{Skill|Alt. Magic}}.

XP gained follows a formula that is based on the level of the summon and the amount of time the action took (in seconds):
XP gained follows a formula that is based on the level of the summon and the amount of time the action took (in seconds):


<math>\text{XP Gained} = \frac{\text{Action Time} \times \text{Summoning Level Required} \times 10}{\text{Summoning Level Required} + 10}</math>
<math>\text{XP Gained} = \frac{\text{Action Time} \times \text{Summoning Level Required} \times 10}{\text{Summoning Level Required} + 10} \times\text{XP Boosts}</math>


When a tablet is consumed some skills use a fixed value for the time per action regardless of the player's bonuses, similarly to {{Icon|Mastery}} XP. Specifically this applies to skills which consume resources. These skills and their action times are listed [[#action_time_table|above]].
Where <math>\text{XP Boosts}</math> is the total amount of Global XP, Summoning Skill XP, Non-Combat Skill XP, and any additional XP modifiers that apply to Summoning.


For example, when cooking with {{ItemIcon|Pig}} Summoning Tablets equipped ({{SkillReq|Summoning|25}} required) the XP earned will be <math>\frac{2.55 \times 25 \times 10}{25 + 10} = 18.21</math> xp even if the player's actual cooking action time is the default 3 seconds.
For example, when cooking with {{ItemIcon|Pig}} Summoning Tablets equipped ({{SkillReq|Summoning|25}} required), an XP Boost of 25% and an action time of 2.55 seconds, the XP earned will be <math>\frac{2.55 \times 25 \times 10}{25 + 10} \times 1.25 = 22.7625</math> xp. When tablets are used as part of a synergy, XP will be gained for each tablet used. Both tablets will use the same action time.
 
When tablets are used as part of a synergy, XP will be gained for each tablet used. Both tablets will use the same action time, which is either a fixed value for skills listed within the [[#action_time_table|table above]], or the actual action time for all other skills.
