[QUOTE="Wish, post: 2671501, member: 13404"] A build which uses only WotC material, but goes a bit deep into some of the books to do it, makes for a really viscious conjurer. Start out with a conjurer with a high Wisdom (in addition to whatever other stats you require). Worship a god that gives access to the Summoner domain (Complete Divine) and have the same alignment as that god. Use the variant conjurer from Unearthed Arcana that lets you summon faster. Then add the Arcane Disciple feat (it's also in Complete Divine), and the Spell Focus - Conjuration feat. This combination lets you qualify for the Thaumaturgist pclass from the DMG as an arcane caster. It's a nice pclass that really boosts summoning and calling, at the expense of everything else. You'll also want a good Diplomacy score to take advantage of the Thaumaturgist special abilities, which makes the build suffer somewhat from ultiple ability dependency, but it's still a decent combo, and considerably better than anything else you'd get out of an arcane summoning type using WotC material. With the various Complete books, there are a number of nice options for a summoning cleric, but that doesn't appear to be what you're looking for. [/QUOTE]
