    Does there exist somewhere a list of summons, their attacks/abilities and how they are enhanced by specialization?

    Here's some info I've gathered:

    Wisp: Debuffs Damage resistance, afflicts mesmerize and confsion. Deals no damage. Specialization increases maximum possible health and reduces its cooldowns.
    Fire Elemental: Throws a fireball. Specialization increases damage and also appears to give it a Fire DoT.
    Ice Elemental: Runs and smacks things. Specailization increases damage and perhaps damage resistance(?).
    Water Elemental: Throws water bolt and heals. Specialization doubles the amount of healing it does.
    Air Elemental: Shoots lightning bolt. Specialization increases its damage.
    Earth Elemental: Smacks things in melee, maycast Earthquake every few seconds. Specialization increases damage and what appears to be damage resist.
    Phoenix: Shoots stock fireball. Currently gains no beneficials from specialization due to bug.
    Lesser Daemon: Maycast Chaos Bolt. Strongest nonundead melee summon. Specialization doubles its damage output, reduces the CD between Chaos Bolts, and increases its maximum health gained per level.
    Skeleton Footman: Hits things with a sword and is immune to poison. Loses health every tic due to decay. Affected by Undead Mastery and Mummified Undead. Specialization increases damage output.
    Lich Fighter: Hits things with an axe. Has frontal cleave with no damage falloff and the Lich itself is immune to poison. Loses health every tic due to decay. Affected by Undead Mastery and Mummified Undead. Specialization increases damage output.
    Skeleton Mage: Shoots a firebolt that inflicts a scaling Fire DoT that stacks twice and the mage itself is immune to poison. Loses health every tic due to decay. Affected by Undead Mastery and Mummified Undead. Specialization increases damage output and allows for 1 additional Fire DoT stack (max 3).

    Hope this helps @Barugon !

    Thanks for that @Perashim.
    Water elemental, which I'm most familiar with, also gains fire resistance with specialization.

    Have you noticed a difference in power with the summons depending on your attunement?

    There is no difference, attunement has nothing to do with a summon's strength.

    Just curious... (I'm at work so I can't actually login to see) but does stacking the glyph for a summoned pet make it better in any way, or just decrease the focus cost? I've never really thought about it before.

    It just decreases the focus cost.

    [edit] I should qualify that: it just decreases the focus cost when you cast the spell. The focus debuff is still the same.
