ESF: Conjuration

[JediMindTrix]

I swear that this used to be on one of the wiki's, or perhaps on the old forums somewhere but I can not for the life of me find it.

Does Epic Spell Focus: Conjuration further increase the stat's of your summons? By what margin exactly?

[one day remains]

As far as I remember it does, that said it may've changed when they introduced the summon spell thing.

No idea by what margin however.

[Red Sunset]

As far as I can tell it does not increase the stats of any summons. All it does is give some temporary hit points to summons from the planar binding, and perhaps epic summoning spells (dragon knight, mummy dusts)

[Scurvy Cur]

Planar binding summons receive increases to their physical stats, and iirc their AB, AC, and HP, for each focus taken. Summon Creature I-IX do not receive stat buffs, but instead summon a creature one spell level higher than is standard, once GSF: conjuration is taken, but the bonus does not scale with further foci.

Question: Is the conjuration bonus the -exact- same as the animal domain it was copied from?

Ie: Having the animal domain gives the same bonus as greater conjuration in terms of summons and spell levels?

[Cortex]

My character might take dragon knight so knowing wether epic conj buffs it or not might be nice too.

[taoofbalance]

According to the Wiki, yes. Each Spell Focus grants a minor buff to Dragon Knight. Though, how large the bonuses are and exactly what is getting buffed. Not sure.

All I ever noticed was temporary hit points, but I did a small test.
Green Slaad (Planar Binding) without conjuration foci: 33 strength, 19 dexterity, 27 constitution, 23 attack ability, 25 armor class

Green Slaad (Planar Binding) with Greater Spell Focus Conjuration (Note not epic): 33 strength, 19 dexterity, 27 constitution, 25 attack ability, 27 armor class, some temporary hit points

There is a small bonus to attack ability, armor class and some temporary hit points. Whatever further bonus epic conjuration would provide I do not know.
