Highest known CL requirement for named summons?

Unread post by Arn »

What is the highest caster level anyone is aware of to be able to summon a named being? The wiki suggests that the highest level for a named summon is a 26 HD Elemental or 22 HD Outsider. Do we know if the caster's caster level needs to be the same? Are there any summons that require a CL of 30?

Thanks for any input! :D

Highest required caster level is 24 (so far). Lowest is 1.

Dedude is right; I was asking about the CL of the caster, not the level of the summon. :D

Do you know if the CL requirement includes Practiced Spellcaster?

It does. It uses the same CL calculation as other spells.
