Greetings everyone! I am still very new to the Pathfinder community altough I have tried to do as much research as possible. I started out as a Cleric on my first character, only to have it changed to Herald Caller when that class came out (with permission of my GM) since my build was already pretty much focused on summoning. Reading other forums I tried to come up with a versatile, and fun build combining Herald Caller with the Cleric Archer, which I understand from other forums used to be a very popular choice. Of course I don't have any ideas yet from personal experience, only what I've been reading. I was hoping there would be some very experienced players on these forums that would help me out, optimizing this character, possibly offering options that I didn't consider or even knew about. Thanks in advance!

Asmodeus (yes, again for RP purposes. And I play a neutral evil cleric, altough I know they are pretty much looked down on).
On the plus side, his summons are pretty good.
Ash Domain for a pretty neat AOE spell and the cool Ash Wall in 2 levels.
Dump Sacred Summons... its been nerfed too hard, get Boon Companion
Ash domain is cool but I think animal (fur) domain suits a summoner better since it gets you an animal companion that scales the now scales the same as a druid's. Wouldnt bother with arching.... just summon and buff and attack with your companion..... although sitting on the back of your Roc in the sky as you rain down arrows does have its merits!!
