you should also carry around a bewitching table, so whenever you want a summoner buff you can just place and click on it.

i would say build it tanky and probs have sdmg with ichor bullets so ur minions do a bit more dmg

Do you want... like the bestest, or the tier list?
Because summoner is kind of a "late-game" class. you start it in the jungle, making it the latest "class" you can start.

Go full damage, literally, purely. Find a way not to get hit by the boss or the mobs and you'll have the highest damage ever, maybe even more than a caster.

No.

If you go summoner, your sub-class should be mage because magic has utility.

Generally, your Melee is for those jerks that get through your summoned onslaught while your Magic is for supporting fire. Summon 2 Stardust Cells (and a doubled Stardust Dragon if fighting a large target like most Bosses) and all of the Deadly Spheres that you can, then focus on maintaining your Turret Summons.
