Palladium Fantasy has both Diabolism and Summoning which require a lot of components.

Also from Rifts: Mystic Russia (pretty much all of them in one form or another), England (The Druids), and Atlantis (stone master).

There are several spells in Combat Magic that need components (they explicitly use an item as a focus), as well as in Nature Magic (they enchant something else, like an egg a knot, wax, etc).

Any sort of enchantment magic of course.
Mystic China has an entire sub-school of magic that is all about making magic pieces of paper that perform magical effects when burned.
Nightbane has Flesh Sculptors, who are described as using tools to perform their rituals as magical surgeries

Thanks.

Outside of PFRPG.... Celestial Calligraphy in Mystic China. This is found in the Tao Shih (Immortalist) class. As it ia written it is paper stored chi magic.
The Fang Shih is also incidentally associated with components....but more in the part that moving stuff/things around changes the flows of chi in an area.
