The Druid:
Nature’s representative, he/she will have several transformation spells at his/her disposal and will become a very good healer over time. A Druid is to survive on his/her own thanks to the different transformations which are adapted to the many situations he/she may encounter. The Druid will be appreciated within a group for his/her powerful spells; which allow him/her to control their enemies, to free his/her allies and to cure them of poison or disease. As a healer, Druids are especially effective against poison-based attacks, but compared to a cleric, Druids will have a difficult time keeping an ally alive that is suffering from quick, high damage attacks. A Druid will excel, at healing his/her whole group over time.
The first path is dedicated to direct spells, mostly based on healing and control. The Druid will be able to root an enemy and to heal diseases, poison, and slowing effects, while making his/her group more resistant to them. The Druid’s main healing power lies within several spells which are effective over time allowing him/her to heal everyone while engaged in another matter.
The second path is based on metamorphosis and attacks. The druid will be able to transform himself/herself into a tree, a wolf or a bear depending on the circumstances. He/She will also specialize in inflicting decent damage, decreasing his/her adversary’s defense, or improving his/her own. A Druid will also be able to summon wolves and bears to assist and protect him/her.
The Druid’s expert abilities are numerous; allowing him/her to recall familiars more easily, to improve his/her regeneration over time, or to improve both his/her use of magic and knowledge of weapons.
Thus, the Druid is a versatile healer type with the ability (unlike the Monk) to fulfill several tasks without being confined to them. He/She will be a solid, appreciated asset. A Druid will also be able to add options within all fields of action, and is an excellent choice for players who like transformations and the ‘jack of all trades’ aspect. Druids are very good complementary healers, are able to cancel or reduce damage in the long run thanks to their recurring healing spells.
