How you get it

Talent in the Beast Mastery tree, tier 4

Summon Hawk sits in the Beast Mastery tree on tier 4. It costs one point. Plan it in the Hunter talent calculator.

Summon Hawk does not exist as a Hunter ability in the Classic Era client (build 1.15.9.70003). It is one of 14 new Hunter abilities in Forever.

An “X” in the description is a number the client text does not resolve; the real value is only visible in game.
