The Necramech Summon is a Gear item that enables the deployment of Necramechs while in Landscapes.
Acquisition[]
A Necramech Summon is automatically acquired after the player builds their first Necramech. However, the item can only be equipped in the Gear wheel after the player has completed The War Within.
Usage[]
Necramech Summons can be equipped in a player's Gear menu, and can be used in Landscapes (Plains of Eidolon, Orb Vallis, and Cambion Drift) and Conjunction Survival, spawning their Necramech at the target reticle. Intrinsics Tactical Rank 5 allows the Necramech Summon to be used in the grounded portions of Empyrean missions. It has infinite uses.
If the Necramech is still alive, there is a 10 second cooldown to move it around with its current health/shields/energy. If the Necramech dies, it will have a one minute cooldown (45 seconds with Intrinsics Tactical Rank 8) with all its health/shields/energy restored.
In Conjunction Survival, the Necramech has a duration of 2 minutes before self-destructing, and has a 10 minute cooldown (7 minutes and 30 seconds with Intrinsics Tactical Rank 8) from when the gear item was activated.

Update 29.1 (2020-09-17)
- Currently there is a 3 minute cooldown on every use of the Necramech Summon Gear item. We’ve changed the cooldown behavior of the Necramech Summon to reflect the following:
- If the player's Necramech is still active, then the Necramech Summon only has a 10 second cooldown. Summoning it this way will move the Necramech to the player's desired position but NOT restore its Health/Shields/Energy.
- If the player's Necramech has been destroyed, then the Necramech Summon has a 3 minute cooldown, and will have its Health/Shields/Energy refilled on summon.
Update 29.0 (2020-08-25)
- Introduced.
