Summon Prebuff Question

[Forbiddian]

I read that it's really important for summoners to have two sets of gear: one with a bunch of +summon skills and one that they use after they make their army.

I did notice that my skeletons would die, though, if I took off my +summon skills equipment.

Do the skeletons actually gain a benefit from casting with 30+ Skeleton/Skeleton Mastery and then switching down to base? Like do they get added hps and added damage from skeleton mastery?

[Nimbostratus]

Yes, they keep the stats they were summoned with. All that changes when you switch gear is the maximum number you can have.

[Rawness]

They gain, but when you switch some of the skellies will sooner or later die.
