Hello playground! I'm making a 5th level character in the Arcane Role, and I as thinking of playing an alienist. I know it may not be the best choice for a summoner, but I would like to play one for flavor and fun reasons. My big question is how do I make this character efficient. Still a nice battlefield controller, but a nice summoning sub-theme.

Ideas on Race, Class, Feats, Etc would be appreciated.

Current Ideas- Wizard 5 Alienist X

Feats- spell focus (Conj), Augment summoning.

Be a specialized wizard dropping necromancy, and enchantment or evocation.

Also I was considering Sorcerer because I could take force of personality and not let the wisdom penalties hurt my will save

Books- PHB,MM 1,3,4,5, DMG, PLH,DrM,HH,LM,CadV,CD,CW,CA. Thanks!

Ehhhhhhhhhh. Do you have to use Alienist? If you want "Far Realm Summoner," Anima Mage with Zceryll blows it away completely.

I'm not even sure how you'd optimize it other than "don't be a summoner" which rather defeats the purpose.
