just a question, where u hear this.
There is no proof it will take ashes, yes ashes is associated with a phoenix but since the phoenix is going to be a Tutorial Familiar the way to summon it could be a drop, or possible rewards from something out of it.
I might go buy some ashes, but this is just for everyone to consider, this could be a big gain or a huge loss. So Choose Carefully.
Just went thru the Behind the Scenes and seen this
"Our first update of the year is actually one we have been talking about for a while ? the new Summoning familiar you voted for during the Summer. Of course, we could have just produced a simple Summoning creature to follow you around and do the occasional funky trick, but we decided that a legendary creature such as the phoenix deserved the full treatment. So, it will have its own tutorial-style quest, in which you learn how to deal with the unusual nesting habits of the giant, fire-drenched beast,
AND a repeatable challenge you can take on every day, should you wish."
The reward from the daily challenge could be the item needed to summon the phoenix (i added this just to add a little proof to my last)
