[Spud]

Druids are like the Cadillac of classes in classic EQ. We can solo very well, group, farm stuff, power level, track, and of course travel around norrath very easily. We do a bit of everything and have lots of utility.

I think its why alot have chosen to play a druid. Also the flexbility a druid provides when exping may be more suitable for people's schedules these days. (They desired for groups as back up healers and also easy to solo with.)
