Also a new patch for the Steam and GOG versions are meant to go live today.:

The good news is that you can check all of this out yourself as we're launching a major patch to Early Access (which is available now on Steam and GOG) today!

With summons, you can use totems and encoat them in elemental powers to expand new possibilities:

The Summoning school uses Incarnates and totems to make life a living hell for opponents. Both Incarnates and Totems take on powers based on the surface they are summoned on, and they can be buffed as well. Every Ability Point in the Summoning combat ability will increase your summons' Vitality, Damage, Magic Armour and Physical Armour. So go nuts!

Incarnates can be further infused with powers that allow it to be a flexible and efficient partner. A small, hairy, creepy little partner. Anyway, for example, you could use Power Infusion on it, which lets your Incarnate cast Warrior skills like Whirlwind and Battering Ram, and it also beefs him up with physical armour. If you’re more interested in ranged attacks and magic armour, go for the Farsight Infusion instead!

On the automatic-home-protection side of things, Totems automatically launch different forms of attacks, buffs and debuffs, making them a useful tool for controlling movement and the tide of battle.

With polymorph you can change people and creatures into new people and creatures... like a dragon into a chicken:

Speaking of Polymorph, let’s talk about it! This skill was by far the most popular skill school in our vote, so we knew we had to make it extremely awesome. If Swen’s demonstrations with the Chariza--we mean with the chicken--didn’t convince you, then we don’t know what will!

Polymorphs are inspired by nature and their magic takes some of the best and worst aspects of other creatures and puts them to combat use. For example, you can grow wings and fly over surfaces, and then chain that with the Flight skill for longer distance flight. The Polymorph combat ability gives players one free Attribute Point to your avatar for every Ability Point invested.

LOADS more changes, notes and more details on the KS page itself.
