Does a summon disappear when I get too far away from it?

Question

When creating a summon (using either utevo res, animate dead rune, or convince creature rune) does it disappear if you get too far away from it? If so, how far away is it and does it differ for the different types of summons?

Answer 1

I tried all types you named (Utevo Res, Animate Dead Rune and Convince Creature Rune) and I came to following conclusion:

• Wolf = Convince Creature Rune
• Skeleton = Animate Dead Rune
• Demon Skeleton / Fire Devil = Utevo Res

First I tried Wolf and Skeleton (because you can only control two creatures at once).

• I was walking around 10 sqm straight east (closely out of their sight) and they both followed.
• I was walking around 20 sqm straight east and sometimes both followed and sometimes only one followed (but did not poof)
• I was walking around 30 sqm straight east and they did not follow (sometimes one poofed, sometimes both and sometimes non).
• I was walking around 40 sqm straight east and non followed and they poofed.

Then I tried Fire Devil and Demon Skeleton:

• I was walking around 10 sqm straight east and they both followed.
• I was walking around 20 sqm straight east and they did not follow (but did not poof).
• I was walking around 30 sqm straight east and they did not follow (sometimes one poofed, sometimes both and sometimes non).
• I was walking around 40 sqm straight east and non followed and they poofed.

I tried these several times and it sometimes changed around the 20 - 40 sqm mark. I think it depends on how fast you are and I was counting my steps so I was not that fast like I would be usually (my speed is on 655). I also tried to step as fast as I did before.

My conclusion: It does not depend on the different types of summons, it only depends on how fast and how far you go away from them.

EDIT:

I tried using parcels and I needed exactly 30 steps and they poofed (from the sqm you see on the screenshot).

This is great. Would it be possible for you to trap the summons with parcels and determine the exact sqm distance away before they poof?
