- Prior to 0.27, this spell was a Level 7 Summonings spell available to players. For players, Tier 1 demons would eventually turn hostile, while Tier 2 demons had a chance to turn hostile. Also, many of the Hell lords and unique pan lords cast Summon Greater Demon instead of a specific, themed summoning spell.
- Prior to 0.10, this spell only summoned Tier 1 demons. However, at the time the category included many demons that are now classified as Tier 2, such as balrugs and cacodemons. This meant that every summon would eventually turn hostile.
