Yeah, edited above to be GetCasterLevel(OBJECT_SELF);

Works perfectly for the palemaster levels ty so much! Only issue is the Druid aspect doesn't seem to be working. Casting mummy dust as a druid should spawn the treant but is spawning the mummy instead.

Add a debugging line to the end of the script to help ascertain the problem.

 

Something like this

 

SendMessageToPC(OBJECT_SELF, "Class: " + IntToString(nClass));
SendMessageToPC(OBJECT_SELF, "Caster Level: " + IntToString(nCasterLevel));

The debugging results are:

 

Class: 255

Caster level: 0

 

Upon further testing with lower level spellcasters it seems the same results are occuring. They get the highest level summon and its always the mummy regardless of class or level.

 

I've reverted to my old script using your initial suggestion to count the palemaster levels and it works perfectly. I also was able to use what I saw in your script to make my Dragon Knight spell add half of the palemaster levels as well! So at least I have them functional if not elegant.

This suggests that your epic spells are being cast through items.  Nothing wrong with that, you just need to delete the item cast lines I provided.

if(GetIsObjectValid(oItem))
          {
          nCasterLevel = GetCasterLevel(OBJECT_SELF);
          nClass = CLASS_TYPE_INVALID;
          }

Also if 005 is your highest summon, and not a default for being cast from an unknown source then I would suggest the following revision

#include "prc_alterations"
#include "x2_inc_spellhook"
#include "inc_epicspells"
 
void main()
{
DeleteLocalInt(OBJECT_SELF, "X2_L_LAST_SPELLSCHOOL_VAR");
SetLocalInt(OBJECT_SELF, "X2_L_LAST_SPELLSCHOOL_VAR", SPELL_SCHOOL_NECROMANCY);

Ah because I am using the same custom epic spell system that the prc uses, epic spells are learned outside of choosing feats in the standard nwn. In this system the spells are learned through research (much closer to pnp style) and are dynamically assigned or removed from the epic spell menu (by virtue of a pc skin) so I guess technically speaking the spells are cast via an item (via a feat dynamically applied to the pc skin).
