My sorcerer just hit level 7 I am picking up summon monster 3 for several reasons. My current role in combat is to cast haste and that's about it. In a tough fight I might drop pyrotechnics or grease.
Very much a controller style build. Human taking extra spells each level.
Summons are quite attractive as damage soaks and sources of damage, as well as utility later in the levels.
What I want is opinions on is whether augment is.needed.to keep the.damage viable and if this is wort it. Other choices are still spell or heighten spell I guess. CRB and APG only.
Thanks
