I'm especially looking for anything that could make my summons harder to dismiss or quicker to summon.

03-18-07, 03:07 PM If you wants to summon the most secure way posible try invisibility + silent spell.

Additionally you can considere the altenative specialist rules in UA and the srd.

I can't find this "Imbue Summoning" anywhere. Are you sure that's the feat name?

rapid spell (metamagic) makes your summons a standard action.

Classes-wise go conjurer variant (UA) or malconvoker on complete scoundrel

03-18-07, 05:23 PM UA's Conjurer Variants (http://www.d20srd.org/srd/variant/classes/specialistWizardVariants.htm#conjurerVar iants)

Depending on your DM, these work as well or better than some feat selections!

03-18-07, 06:25 PM I'm already playing the spirit shaman who is up to level 17. He tends to rely mostly on summons (Summon Elemental Monolith from Complete Arcane epecially) to deal with non-spirit fights and other tasks. The world is Eberron.

03-19-07, 12:23 AM Rapid Spell (CDiv) is a metamagic feat that will let you cast summon spells as a standard action instead of having a 1-round casting time.

03-19-07, 10:41 AM With the DM's permission, you may be able to take the Conjurer Variant abilities as feats considering that they replace the class bonus feats.

03-19-07, 05:34 PM Frostburn appears to have some good ones. Beckon the Frozen gives +1d6 cold damage on natural attacks (and cold subtype, etc.). Someone else mentioned another frostburn feat somewhere. Take the UA variants, definitely.
