Should try pillars 2, they have user programmable AI for your companions so you don’t have to micromanage

Guessing you played BG3 and wanted to check out Larian’s other stuff? I always had Beast as summoner whenever I used him. He’s a battlemage by default so summoner isn’t too far off really. Summoner is also REALLY REALLY good, even without the gift pack mod buff. Since summoner stuff only relies on your skill points and not attributes you can basically dump intelligence for constitution/strength/memory if you need it too. Faster movement is basically necessary to me too, I’ve sunk so many hundreds of hours in that game and missing so many trophies just because it feels so slow without it.
