Is it true that they're usually not wanted in a group past 35? People are saying that the only worth they typically have in a group, or are wanted for, is ports, and nothing else. I can't really buy that seeing as they have so many other things they can do (ds, heal, root, crowd control, buffs, damage), but that's what people in EC are saying. I didn't want to jump in on their convo because I don't really know enough about the class to put forth my two cents in front of a major audience, but is this true? Are Druids really looked down on at high levels? I was under the impression that most groups like having a player that can do a lot of things, not just all players that can only do one role.

In the ideal group, to maximize EXP, you want classes that can do what they do better than anyone else. Druids dont do that. Clerics heal better, Wizards nuke harder, Necros DoT harder, Shamans buff better. Does this mean you will NEVER get a group after level 35? No, but it does mean that if theres a group wanting to fill a DPS spot theyre going to probably pick the wizard/mage over you, or if they're looking for a healer they will pick the cleric over you.
