[QUOTE="Eman Resu, post: 5567515, member: 100340"] Ive always enjoyed using a summoner as the bbeg. It didnt give the players more exp pts, it weakened them and could keep them off the bbeg as he did? I havent really found an interest in metamagic feats, or other feats that took the parties most powerful class and made an even greater contrast. Buuut now Ive got a new bug. I want to apply the same strategy as the BBEG above to my pc. And when my summoned beasties are attacking/defending, I can be doing "other". Ive noticed that the wizard/sorcerer summon monsters list is limited in alignment & selection in comparison to the Druids summon natures ally. What is the opinions of all you who are experienced with all that revolves around summoning? Does the Druid have the summoning superiority? What are the feats that are must haves? The stongest class-for summoning? Its a 15th level evil and gestalt campaign, none of us are true optimizers (as you may have gathered). The guys are going on a weekend camping/ gaming marathon and the trip isnt for a month or 2. None of us have ever played a "summoner" specialist soooooooo, so if you could help me create a summoner specialist I would very much appreciate your help/advice/opinions etc thanks guys EmanResu [/QUOTE]
