It's a pet focus. It makes your pet much more powerful than a pet summoned without a focus. The skull is one of the random items summoned from the cauldron. You right click the skull with yourself targeted (4ish hour buff with buff extensions) and whatever pet you summon while the buff is on you is summoned with the focus of that buff.

This ;) Now if only they'd give us a way to take the swords off of our pets so we can save them for non-raid days!
So, people actually actively use these swords?
I can see using the wavethrasher just for the looks (they do look cool) as the proc dmg difference is very marginal to the regular summoned weapons, has the same resist check, but is 70 HPs less. The tideslashers I didn't use as the procs are virtually identical, but has less HPs than regular summoned weapons.
When I go out hunting, I equip pet with regular summoned weapons, 1 ice and 1 magic as I cast a lot of fire. That's 3 different resist checks. It seems to work for me.

I only click cauldron to get food, water, rod, mask, ice clicky and heal potion. Everything else I trash.

Click it on yourself, once buffed with it, summon a NEW pet. Pet summoned will be focused till it dies. Or you die.. hehe

It wouldn't benefit you to use it then since you already have a better focus. The perks of this are:

1 - It's a decent summonable (albeit randomly) focus if you don't already have something better.
2 - It's tradeable, so you can give it to someone else who doesn't have as good of a focus item (like me! Gimme!).

Since it costs you nothing to create the item except clicking your cauldron it's a nice item to sell to the youngsters or give to less fortunate guildies/friends.

The Skull of the Spire Servant allows you to summon a pet with the focus effect Spire Servant, just like if you had a focus item of the same name on your equipment. A focused pet does more damage and has increased HPs/stats. If you have played a mage for a while you will remember how hard it was to get a pet focus item (God Expansion for instance). SOE gave us this temporary way to focus our pets until we could earn the same focus on an item (earring quest from quest giver in Dragon Scale Hills - Fairy Tower or Kraxz's earring from anniversary event Black Burrow) or until you work on your progression through Sod (Zeb sells pet focus - 'Enhanced Minion' item that fits into slot 3 on some armor pieces that you get in the Void).

The correct use of the The Skull of the Spire Servant is to cast this on yourself then summon a pet. The effect lasts for 2hrs, so if your pet dies you can still summon a focused pet as long as you didn't die.
