Hi everyone, looking for some help with a Druid that plans to do a lot of summoning. I've been looking at the Greenbound Summoning feat from Lost Empires of Faerun, as well as the Ashbound feat from the Eberron Campaign Setting for feats. Anyway, here are the specifics for the campaign...

32 Point Buy
Level 6
Standard WBL (13k at this level)
No ToB, Unearthed Arcana upon request (no flaws tho)

I'm torn between being human or half-orc, for the racial substitution levels out of Races of Destiny.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Take Natural Spell as your 6th level feat.

Greenbound Summoning and Ashbound are both great. Just make sure the flavor of Ashbound won't conflict with other members of your party (arcanists!) before taking it.

Since you're using Eberron material, have you considered the Shifter race and Moonspeaker prestige class?

If you're planning on taking this to a higher level, like 13+, skip greenbound or see if you can retrain it. Having your summons be plant type during that stage of the game is a liability, since it prevents your summons from being buffed by spells like animal growh and etc.
