Default Summoned Creature

I have an assassin that use critical scythe build

I just had idea of replacing banishing strike with the eremites attack(the one that gain from adjacent foes)

What I wonder is what creatures count as summoned creature for banishing strike to count
I mean does every undead foe is considered as summoned
Or every foes that get doubled holy damage automatically considered as summoned creature

Or enchanted *swords,scythes* that are in EotN dungeons are sommoned

pls help ty

Any minion or spirit that is summoned via a skill. Things like the Enchanteds, which are spawned naturally, are not considered summoned creatures.

*edit
@dilan155 The spirits created by nature rituals are treated the same way rit spirits are and are considered summoned creatures as well.

The aoe from hitting a summoned creature (minion) deals holy. So theyll take the +dmg and holy dmg. Pretty sure its minions only.

Key word is SUMMONED. Did a character or creature make the target you are attacking? If so, it is a summoned creature. Spirits and minions count. Undead don't count unless is it a minion. Think carefully about what summoned means.

However you also have to consider that skills sometimes interact with summoned creatures differently. Minions by definition are summoned creatures, yet the Ritualist elite skill Consume Soul does not treat them as such {the description says all health is stolen from a summoned creature (thus implying that it is destroyed)... spirits, both rit and ranger based are destroyed, but an MM's minions are not}. Based on the skill description of banishing strike it should trigger on minions, but it's probably best to test it just to make sure.

Dunno if this is true, but by the definitions above it would trigger on asuran summons, + ebon vanguard sin. Obviously since pve only skills, u can never use it against them, but it might be worth considering that.

It definately works on minions, hence y the A/D in the UW SC uses it in pits, never tried on spirits though.
