Spiritualist quick phantom summon


Rules Questions


I'm planning on playing a Spiritualist on a next campaing and reading through the class (and some guides i found on the internet) it's very weird to me that you can't summon the Phantom out of your consciousness faster than 1 full minute.

I suppose they want you to just hide your phantom when you are on cities/towns and summon it every single time you are on the wild? IDK but that's just... weird. I mean, the summoner can summon it's Eidolon whenever he wants, and there are times where you can't anticipate a combat.

It's there a way to summon it faster and I'm missing something? is it badly explained or is just me?

The most likely issue is that you get a set of bonuses when then phantom is in your mind and they just don't want you to swap from 'social' mode (for lack of a better term) to 'battle' mode at the drop of a hat: If you want the 'Shared Consciousness' bonuses, you need to sacrifice having your phantom out for a while...
