You make a druid to port, because they port better than wizards. That's it.
Druids have some very nice soloing options in certain locations at certain levels, but otherwise shamans are clearly superior. There are very few places you can quad in the manastone usable old world. Paw spires, the 4 spawns near the hermit, spectres, and Oggok if you're good. That's about it. The problem is these places are usually camped.
Charm however is still quite usable. There are a few variations to charming you can do as a druid. You can perma pet a mob, give it weapons, and either fear your kill targets if they are animals (mammoths, TD) or chain cast snare gloves and kite while your pet kills the mobs chasing you. (OT, EJ) Or you simply charm a mob, use it to kill one or two mobs, break charm, charm a new mob, and kill the mob that was your pet. (kedge, permafrost)
In groups however, druids are worthless. Except maybe in Chardok.
