I want to play a character that's based almost entirely on Summoning. I know Druid's get to summon animals (Summon Natures Ally X), but I'm thinking more along the lines of Outsiders, Devils, Demons, Celestials, and what have you.

Is there any class (or combination of classes) that excels at summoning? Even if it's just normal animals, that's better than nothing.

Thanks for all your help.

Please click on my "Mastering the Malconvoker" link in my Sig for in-depth analysis of a PrC dedicated to summoning, and how to build one.

The best ones I found are homebrew variants. But it really depends on what you want to summon. Druids summon nature's allies are mostly animals and occasional magical beasts. Or you can go with psion (shaper) with astral constructs with some nice feats/PrC to back it up. It really depends what you want

I'll second that. I found that guide to pretty much cover it. Highly recommend checking it out.

i suggest a multiclassed druid/conjurer or inventing your own class, also you could use the search engine and look up summoner
