Druids are less desired than Shaman in end-game and groups mid-game and up. Shaman buffs are, for the most part, better than druids across the board. Aside from DS and Port, Druids are a second rate Shaman and without a pet (until 55+ Velious).
Only go druid if ports are a necessity and you want a little more solo flexibility. Otherwise, if you are mostly duoing with an SK then I highly recommend Shaman as this class is the ultimate buffer and capable of providing decent haste and the best slows. Healing is on par with druids. In all honestly go Shaman unless you absolutely need ports in which case Druids are alright.
