There is a magic summoner class already, the Witch Doctor.
really need to see the rest of his tree before i label him a summoner. i suspect he will get more/different summons but until we see more who knows how he will play|||Nothing dumbs down gameplay on a fragile offensive caster like a summonable tank, probably the most boring form of crowd control ever conceived of.
