Let me just start by saying anyone who says druids aren't an end-game class clearly has never had to mobilize for raid targets. I also want to say that with new spells in velious, druids become pretty powerful spot healers for raiding. Anyway, ignore the haters man and just keep plugging along. You will realize that druids become more fun with more levels.
I personally think that druids are hardest to level 1-44; after that you gain access to certain zones and spells that allow you to potentially gain experience a lot faster. Expect to spend lots of time soloing, or in smaller groups with non-traditional compositions. This isn't necessarily a bad thing as you will generally level faster in these situations than you would joining full groups. Don't be afraid to explore new zones and try new stuff. Even if you die a few times in the process you will eventually end up finding the areas you gain the best experience and make up for the deaths.
As for the end game situation on project99 there are tons of things to look forward to as a druid. You can figure out ways to earn platinum or farm gear for alts, should that be your thing. You can join any of the raiding guilds; there are tons of different types to choose from depending on how dedicated you are to the game and what your playtime/playstyle is like. I don't have a whole lot of time to break everything down in detail for you right now but if you have any questions just shoot me a PM or hit me up in-game on Tasslehof or Barlow.
PS I believe you may have ported me from OT to somewhere else the other day, much appreciated
