As title. The challenge, for you optimizers, is to be able to train a fully advanced (288) primal elemental in 1 minute. The DC of the handle animal check, is 448. I want to see how you can do this challenge, as well as having the thought of someone just riding a giant building block of the material plane into battle.

-Be a cleric.
-Cast Divine Metamagic persisted 'Aspect of the wolf' (extra spell feat) on yourself.
-Cast 'Awaken' (extra spell feat) on yourself.
-Gain +1d3 charisma and +2 HD.
-Summon a Wight, let it level drain you two times and voluntarily fail the saving throw to remove the negative levels.

-Gain 250 XP.

-Rinse, repeat. Eventually, you'll have enough charisma to make the check without even having ranks in Handle Animal.

Get festering anger or any other method of NI ability score (shape change into a shambling mound and hit yourself with tons of electric attacks etc) get an ice assassin of a 10th level void disciple to use that on you so you can sub your high strength modifer instead of your charisma modifier.

Edit: boring method shape change into a zodar and wish for a +450 item of handle animal. This method may be frowned upon though.

1.acquire 4 cronies who can use magic items.
2.Craft items of hide life and shield other for all of them, plus one for yourself.
3. Have all the cronies use the items of hide life, and shield other (targeting you).
4. Use item of hide life, use shield other on every crony. Cast beastland ferocity and masochism on yourself.
5. Stab yourself with a dagger. Due to shield other, each crony will take half that damage, and then you'll take half of that half the damage. From all four of them, this adds back up to original amount, and loops for infinite damage.
6. Due to infinite damage, sadism provides an infinite bonus to skills. Proceed to make check to tame giant elemental.
