There are a few dragons in ToV that have a spell summon that will go off every 30 seconds in addition to the normal summon mechanic, but it will go off as soon as someone is on their aggro table.
Important note: we have an individual Summoning flag for npcs, so perma-rooted mobs should NOT automatically start summoning, unless they have the flag set.
There are raid encounters where, for example, you have a room full of perma-rooted mobs, who just stand where they are and cast, but don't summon
