Is it definitively known if intelligence affects summons?

Their stats or duration? Anything?

it's intellect, and it should effect their duration. Can't remember if this is true with quickslot summons

you can see anything that's effected as it will say "base X number" and then a green higher or lower number based on your intellect, same for spell duration and area of effect, hover over stuff for the tooltip

Someone was saying summon duration is fixed, if so, a summon heavy chanter has little reason to put stats into intellect it would seem. Trying to salvage the idea of a summoning chanter when I play the game, but it's really not sounding like a summoning class at all, unless the vast majority of fights actually are over within half a minute.

They really are.  One of the criticisms of the game for good or ill is that combat is very quick in game time.  Also, the reduced durations mean that low level summons will be ready to pop or almost ready to pop when the first set goes down.  There's a reason chanters have a summoner AI setting.
