I was wondering if anyone could assist me in making a viable build that is good from level one and only got better from there on out. The concept of the build is a summoner ( or sorcerer ) who summons minions to carry out his will. However if he does come out as a sorcerer I would prefer him to be a battlefield control/blaster kind of sorcerer. Oh, and please use 25 point buy. Thanks in advance!
What bloodlines do you favor?
What race do you favor?
What campaign/AP you playing in if any we know?
What does your party consist of?
What level are you starting at?
Are you allowed traits? How many?
Will your DM allow you to use the Human bonus spell trait on other races?
I personally am making a sorcerer, but while my build is heavy in BC it is very light in blast, you can't really do both well with the limited spell selection of sorcerer.
My build (Arcane Human Sorcerer) gets good at 8th level and higher were it can throw a high DC acid arrow+metamagic daze with a 4th level spell (10+5(CHA)+1(Metamagic)+2(Spell Level)+2(Focuses)) 20 DC without items, has a high inititive (+4 Familiar, +4 Imp. Init, +2 Trait, +2 Dex) of 12 to hit them with the BC spells before the battle starts.
Here is the build to 17...

Some of the DC's are off of what they can be with metamagic add-on's. Hope this helps, and this isn't the best character but it's what I have been working on.
Shh, they don't know that! No, but really, we'll be using the content from the Epic Level Handbook ( With a possible touch of Immortal Handbook, all the Immortal Handbook is unlikely ).
What bloodlines do you favor?
What race do you favor?
What campaign/AP you playing in if any we know?
What does your party consist of?
What level are you starting at?
Are you allowed traits? How many?
Will your DM allow you to use the Human bonus spell trait on other races?
I personally am making a sorcerer, but while my build is heavy in BC it is very light in blast, you can't really do both well with the limited spell selection of sorcerer.
My build (Arcane Human Sorcerer) gets good at 8th level and higher were it can throw a high DC acid arrow+metamagic daze with a 4th level spell (10+5(CHA)+1(Metamagic)+2(Spell Level)+2(Focuses)) 20 DC without items, has a high inititive (+4 Familiar, +4 Imp. Init, +2 Trait, +2 Dex) of 12 to hit them with the BC spells before the battle starts.
Book that are allowed are the pathfinder stuff exclusively, I don't have much of a preference when it comes to the Bloodlines... they're all too cool! I like Human the best, when it comes to sorcerers, and we're ( going ) to be playing in the Drow War campaign. Party stuff hasn't been worked out yet, but it'll probably end up with a rogue, barbarian, and something else. Starting at one, DM would let us do anything ( He previously got rid of Level Adjustment and told us to go crazy. He doesn't care much 'bout over-poweredness, although I don't know if we can be any race right now. ) Oh, and I haven't asked about traits.
You didn't mention if you start at level 1, I am going to show you what I plan to do level 1-15 with my current sorcerer build, and give you the level 15 build. At level 15 this guy can take down a CR 19 dragon by himself, from then on he rocks after level 20 I don't know what you should do since I don't have epic experience.
I don't know about Epic play, never played/gmed above level 15/17 or so. I wouldn't respond but there isn't many people (though a few I am impressed with) so I thought I would try to help as I have been building sorcerers over and over again for weeks.
Now here is the build I will be working towards for my Second Darkness campaign, it's centered around being able to do the following...
Level 1-4:
Color Spray, here is your friend. Better than any other thing you can do at these levels, a unconsious creature is "helpless" meaning auto crit on attack, and they make fort save of die.
Level 4-6: Glitterdust, not as good as color spray was 1-4, but blindness against most guys gives your team a bunch of good things, also scorching ray is nice if you actually want to do damage.
Level 6-8: Haste your team, Slow the enemy = Win
Level 8-12: Haste your team, Slow the enemy, anyone makes there save gets hit with Dazing Acid Arrow
Level 12-15: Haste your team, Quickened Stinking Fog, Dazing Acid Arrow to the biggest, meanest looking guy, anyone walks out of the stinking cloud slow them or hit them with some disabling spell.
Level 15+: DC 35 Quickened, Persistant, Selective Stinking Cloud (using level 7 slot, with free quicken from Spell Perfection feat) followed by DC 30 Dazing, Persistant, Elemental:Acid OR Electric Acid Arrow (using level 6 spell slot). By doing this anything in the cloud must make 2 DC 35 Fort saves or be sickened (losing all non-move actions, dropping weapons, lots of good stuff) and they stay sickened for a bit after they leave, and the big guy you hit with Acid Arrow has to make 2 saves every round a number of rounds, or be dazed for 2 rounds.. all creatures of normal CR will fail the saves 50%+ of the time, with 2 saves it's almost automatic. He can do this trick 4-6 times a day for the most part with little drop off. With the other spells and party buffs you got most things covered, though you can switch spells to match your preference.(EDIT: Forgot to mention both spells bypass spell resistance, your hitting both Fort+Will saves, and that you can select up to 5 people at level 15 (cha mod +5) to not be effected by the stinking cloud meaning they can wade in and have at it!)
Past level 15 just keep taking sorcerer, and fill your needs until 20, after that I don't know.

Note the Summoner had 150K cash unspent because I think herolab adds the items to Ed so he would buy the few he had on for Ed. Ed can do 600+ damage with a full attack buffed. Ed is mainly worked out to show how much damage he can do, but the Summoner would use some work, and you might want to check the numbers but it should give you some ideas with both a level 15 Summoner and level 15 Sorcerer to look at.

Actually, that's not true. Check out pp406-407 of the Core Rulebook.
</form reply>
And what's there will probably work perfectly for up through level 30-35 or so. Much beyond that, the class disparity for saves will really start to wreak havoc.
At level 35, a class with a "good" Will save will have a base +19, while a class with a "poor" Will save will have a base +11. Doesn't sound like much, but when you've got Wisdom-based classes (which usually have the good Will saves) in there, the disparity is actually higher, eventually leading to situations where half the party needs a 20 to save, and the other half needs a 1 to fail.
Situations such as everyone needing a 1 to fail (or a 20 to save) happen with reasonable frequency in my games, and I'm using the ELH version rather than the Pathfinder version, which flattens the curve after level 20.
Of course I never tell the players that, since there's a handful of abilities in the game that let people take an auto 20 once in a while, and if they burn that on a "don't roll a 1" save, well, that's quite a shame :)
