Summoner and Eidolon

[Gorr_the_Gastly]

So I want to give a Summoner a chance in a new game I am trying to get together but I have never tried to use the summoner.
Also I am debating on whether to pick a Biped or a Quad formed Eidolon, I know Quad gives pounce, Biped gives 10' Reach.

But what should I do for this character, I suspect I am gonna be told to increase Summoning via Augment and Superior Summoning feats.

Also playing as a Samsaren so I can pick up 5 spells (Was considering the cure line as Summoners can only get that via wands)

That is the basic choice.
Most go with Quad, cause Pounce.

I'd just like to point out that the Infernal Healing (http://www.d20pfsrd.com/magic/all-spells/i/infernal-healing) spells are on the Summoner list already.
If you do insist on a Cure spell, I'd only grab one, at the most two (and not the ones from levels 1 or 4 due to the overlap with Infernal).

Hmmm...sadly, you cannot grab "Heal", as the only Arcane list it is on is Witch, but they get it as a 7th.
