What in the name of anything @ Atomos

It doesn't say it need astral flow active, maybe it's just a spell with a normal recast?

My thoughts exactly. Otherwise, why would they include the "* Atomos has no additional blood pacts usable during Astral Flow." It's different from the wording that was used for Odin and Alexander. They may be saying that Atomos is casted like Odin, but without needing Astral Flow, and that if you do use Astral Flow and summon Atomos, that he won't use a different Astral Flow specific ability.

Could we get a dev to clear up this confusion? Do we need Astral Flow active to summon Atomos? If so, is he able to absorb SP abilities?

That is indeed a very astute observation, we have been under the assumption from previous announcements that Atomos, like Alexander and Odin would only be summonable under the effects of Astral Flow.
It could go either way, though. Time will tell.

I thought this at first as well, however if it is not tied to astral flow would that not be a slap in the face to Thiefs? It would be a better version of their SP ability every minute. That assumes of course Atomos is able to remove SP abilities. If it isn't, then this spell is complete garbage.
