[QUOTE="Sylrae, post: 5018787, member: 48520"] Conjuration wizards are pretty fail summoners. They’re not specialized enough. The only decent summoner class I've seen is the Malconvoker PrC, which was based on manipulating demons into doing good things. It was only ‘OK’. What if the Eidoloneer (Because it’s clearly not a Summoner if the emphasis is on being an (albeit really cool) Pokémon trainer). What if the Eidoloneer could only make move and swift and free actions while the Eidolon was out, and the Eidolon got full actions. To make a Standard or full-round action, the Eidoloneer has to drop the Eidolon (Free Action). Resummoning the Eidolon is Standard Action. The Eidolon shares Initiative with the Eidoloneer. As Ruemere suggested, his other abilities would consist of abilities such as Hmm. What if said two fighters gained a bonus to “To Hit”: A bonus to the dice rolls for BAB, without the extra attacks, which makes them hit as though they were both fighters of ¾ level or something, but in all other ways are only half? If you summoned multiple casters, they’d get a bonus as though they were higher caster level, possibly even full casters, which would only apply to things such as DCs. Maybe both get smaller bonuses to saves or AC. Just a thought on how to have more of the small ones without them becoming totally useless. This is a pretty good idea also. [/QUOTE]
