Summon Level Range test
System used: Ps3
Goal: Test summon range limit, covenant influence in summon range limit, and if previous sequential host-phantom connections have any effect on that limit, since many players notice that after summoning/being summoned by a friend, it becomes easier to repeat the process right after dying/for the next boss, the p2p lobby might facilitate and ignore a bit the lvl range after the first connection.
Sucessful summons within range: 7 (mostly random summons)

Range - lvl + 10 + 11,2%
Result: Success, host saw the sign after a few seconds
First impressions: As of patch 1.06, no covenant gets extra summon range, all summons follow the rule lvl+/-10+/-10(to 11)% and an immediate re-summon of a phantom doesn't relax the summon range if the host levels up, or changes to a char of another level, but does allow for the connection to be made easier.
More testing will take place.
