ADDITIONS/ERRATA:
-6:46 I agree with @LightningRaven42 and many others that Rogue Resilience at Level 9 should be errata'd out. No other class gets "Evasion" in all 3 saves, including the Monk. (By the way I prefer the term "boosted" for the mechanic of turning successes into critical successes, from the thread I made about it on the subreddit!)
-18:15 To be clear, the eidolon only benefits from FUNDAMENTAL runes from armor, not property runes. (Whereas it benefits from all weapon runes.)
-20:08 the ability for Abserd AND the eidolon to do exploration activities is a function of Act Together, which only base Summoners get. Thx @undrhil5281 !
-31:33 Evolution Surge lets the summoner add ONE ability. (So Huge size OR flight in this instance.) At this level, the Fly spell is available. And there are two feats, Glider Form (Lvl. 1) and Airborne Form (Lvl. 14) then give permanent flight to an eidolon.
-50:14 The summoner already got to stand up as a free action due to the Cleric's Heroic Recovery (42:33).
-1:03:38 Abserd could only add 3 charges to a staff with Sure Strike, because the highest spell rank he can prepare is 3rd rank.
