Checking my log archive and here's what I've got regarding summoning:

- Summoning never occurred more frequently than once every 10 seconds.
- Several named classic mobs summoned (however, these logs are from the Combine, so maybe they didn't summon in 1999). Specifically, named fire giants in SolB (Magus Rokyl, King Trannix) as well as quite a few trash mobs in PoHate and PoFear (xxx of Innoruuk, thought destroyer, etc). Both Naggy and Vox summoned.
- Many named epic mobs summoned (Cazel, Wrath of the Shissar, etc).

As others have posted, summoning worked based on the hatelist, melee range and percentage of health of the mob. Summoning would start once the mob reached 97% health or lower, and the mob would summon the person at the top of it's hatelist if that person wasn't within melee range, no more frequently than once every 10 seconds.

Summoning always placed the summoned character at the same X/Y location as the mob. As a warrior, whenever I was summoned I would always have to take a step or two back to be able to 'see my target' for melee.
