Druid help

[Corrik]

Hey there playground, I need some help. Have a special power gaming campaign coming up and my straw said druid, which I've never played or given much of a look at. So I need some help making the most powerful, game breakingest, campaign ruiningest, druid build that I can get.

Here is the info:

Stats: 18, 17, 17, 10, 10, 8 with the -2 to any stat for a +1 to any other stat rules in effect.

Starting level 9.

Gold: 36,000gp

If possible I'd like to get elemental companion from complete mage but I'm willing to let it go if it doesn't work.

Oh and did I mention that the game is tomorrow, cause that's kind of important.

Well, you don't have Faiths of Eberron or Lost Empires of Faerun, so that rules out Planar Shepherd and Greenbound Summoning...

Best you'd hope for is:

Human Drood 9
Wis > Con > Int > Cha > Dex > Str

1st Spell Focus: Conjouration
H Augmented Summoning
3 Natural Bond
6 Natural Spell
9 Elemental Summoning

That gets you a Drood-3 companion at full Drood9 strength, or a Drood-6 companion at Drood-3 strength. Common pets are the Fleshraker or any other sizeable Dinosaur. Desmudu Hunting Bats are also pretty smexy.

Elemental Summoning is an awesome reserve feat from CMage that gives you your choice of elemental all the time as long as you keep a high level summoning spell in reserve. At 9th level, IIRC, you should have a large one, with Air and Earth being prime combat suspects with a fair amount of utility built in.

For spells, keep a fair bit of battlefield control. Wall of Thorns is about the best spell you have right now. Use the heck out of it. Control Winds is another brutal slayer, great for mass destruction. Last Breath and Delay Death are really nice for keeping your friends from dying prematurely. Cast Produce Flame on your animal companion, possibly with a Lesser MM Rod of Empower for a sizeable damage boost to his attack routine.

What do you want to do druids are great at summoning and melee combat though you can also become an almost evoker-like caster throwing bolts of lightning at your target until they turn into a pile of ashes I personally would go with summoner feats (ie augment summoning) and prepare some blasty and some buff spells but use those for your summoning, and wildshape into a big mean beast when melee needs help.

build
Human
feats Augment summoning, Natural spell<--- a must, Ashbound, beckon the frozen, extend spell, persistant spell, spell foucs (conjuration) <--- sux but pre rec for augment summoning

The ability rule ROCKS for you put 1s in dex and str and make your wis through the roof!

For equipment, remember Wilding Clasps.

Bite of the WereX line of spells are excellent buffs.

[Corrik]

The summoning(elemental especially) quite appeals to me.

[Half-orc Bard]

see if your DM might let you get Rashami Elemental Summoning it turns you air and earth elementals into an even deadlier force.

[Keld Denar]

Rashemi Elemental Summoning is from a source that isn't allowed.

Thats why I said to ask the DM
