Summoners

Is there any plans on adding the Summoner class to this game. Its one of my favorite Pathfinder class.

Officially? Not a chance, or at least not for WotR. Maybe in the future as part of another AP adaption.

In the meantime we have Making Friends (Summoner Mod)[github.com].

Not if you're expecting the full range of options available for the Summoner's Eidolon to be depicted visually. Unless they do it like with Shifter's minor aspects, no visual changes but you still get the mechanical benefits.

I believe that the developers said the work it would take to make make the summoner work was the equivalent of the work needed to make an entire DLC.

So probably never.

When they started working on Wrath, they said they had 3 choices:
A) Add many new classes and add more archetypes
B) Add Summoner only
C) Add many new classes and Summoner, with Summoner's eidolon having 1 form, and heavily limited evolutions.

They did not want to add only 1 class and did not want to do lesser version of Summoner.

Same as that DLC without companion. Only class, nothing else.

Played one in P&P, but they are so utterly broken. So balancing itself would be a problem if you would implement the summoner class.

Hmm. In tabletop, even unchained, they are very, very good. Not so sure they would be so broken in Wrath since the Eidolon wouldn't have Mythic ranks. Probably no better then a smilidon. Since the Summoner and the Eidolon share equipment slots that is going to limit how powerfurl the Eidolon is a bit.

Any class in the right hands are utterly broken. It depends on how they are built lol
