Mar 8, 2017 at 20:30 | comment | added | Eiketsu | Budgetary constraints also come into play in this particular adventure. We just hit level 8 and haven't earned a coin since we started, at 5. It's more story-driven than financial, and the DM would almost certainly let me talk him into a wand or scroll at some point, but it'd be more convenient for all parties involved if it were just something I was able to do. | |
Mar 8, 2017 at 19:27 | comment | added | Hey I Can Chan | @thedarkwanderer Yeah, but trying to use the page that way means the player's poking at the dark corners of the Use Magic Device skill when, instead, the PC—who already has the skill Use Magic Device, by the way—could just buy and use a wand of summon eidolon, and the GM wouldn't want to punch the player in the face after an hour-long Use Magic Device argument. So, yeah, look at the question's last 'graph as to why I'm hesitant to go shadier than the totally obvious. I'll support your answer, though, if you want to go there. | |
Mar 8, 2017 at 19:17 | comment | added | Please stop being evil | With a bit of UMD a Page of Spell Knowledge can almost get it on your spell list. It makes it so can cast the spell as if it was one of your spells known. Unfortunately, while druids have the spontaneous casting class feature, they don't have 'spells known' so it's unclear what it means when you add a spell to that list while emulating it being on your spell list. | |

Minor edits. Mainly adding italics to spells.

Mar 8, 2017 at 17:44 | comment | added | Hey I Can Chan | @Eiketsu You're welcome. I'm just disappointed I couldn't help more. I remain flabbergasted that in the entirety of the massive-and-still-growing Pathfinder corpus there's just no way—archetype, feat, magic item, spell, trait, whatever—to simply plop a summoner spell onto the druid spell list. Here's hoping that, in time, another user will have an answer for you that can expand on this one. | |

Mar 8, 2017 at 17:27 | comment | added | Eiketsu | I appreciate such a thorough answer. I'm pretty sure our DM would allow my character to research his own version of it and add it to his spell list, but I wanted to look for alternatives first. It seems I came to a lot of the same conclusions your answer laid out. While it makes sense to me for Versatile Summon to be applicable to anything Augment Summoning is, the RAW doesn't seem to line up 100%. I'll have to keep that in mind. Again, thank you for such a solid answer. | |
