I'm going to be rolling up a Summoning Focus Druid in Eberron. I'm looking for any summoning feats I may have overlooked. Currently my list is:
Spell Focus (Conjuration) (SRD) Augment Summoning (SRD) Ashbound (Eberron Campaign Setting) Beckon the Frozen (Frostburn)
But beyond that (other than other Eberron Summoning Feats for Druidic Sects) I'm not sure what else to take. |
Ashbound doubles the duration of Summon Nature's Ally and gives all summons a +3 luck bonus to attack, it stacks nicely with Augment Summoning.
It's all about divine summoners.
Its a decent 5-level prestige class, as it stands, giving free Augment Summoning at 2nd level, and free extend to all conjuration(summoning) spells at 3rd (although, 4th and 5th levels may be superfulous).
If you can get lesser planar ally on your Druid spell list without too many hoops, it isn't bad. But the cleric build requires Spontaneous Summoner (or a domain with Summon Nature's Ally and Domain Spontenaiety, either as a Divine Feat or via the alternate class feature from PHB2) to take Ashbound, which is also way-worth it.

Rapid Spell is nice, but not really necessary (Turns casting time 1 ROund spell into a Standard Action, and works with spontaneously cast spells).
There's a feat that allows you to simultaneously cast a summon-buff when casting the summon spell. I didn't think it was worth it, but its there.
Natural Spell. Its a must-have, unless you plan on taking feats to do other things with your wild-shape. Speaking of which, some wild-shape feats might be useful, although not directly related to your build.
There are a number of Ashbound feats in the Player's GUide to Eberron, but I don't recall what they are off hand. Hrm.

Mental note: stop taking so much time off from D&D for petty things like work, school, and drinking.
... Okay, just work and school.

Add a level to the summon spell and burn up to a 3rd level spell to have that spell buff the creature when it is summoned.
