Hey guys, looking for a bit of advice. My buddy and I are going to be duoing once a week. He's planning on playing a druid. I was looking for advice on a good complimentary class.

What do y'all think?

Dru+Enc, Dru+Nec are super strong choices.
Dru/Enc could take tougher stuff with charm/slow.
Dru/Enc would probably be a little bit "safer" with real CC instead of just root/fear/screaming terror.

Dru/Nec could probably farm faster in general, a necro can really lay down the DPS+charm when s/he doesn't need to worry about keeping snare on a mob, with druid regen rolling all day. Add in the fact that all(?) your nec/dru dots stack and it's a flexible combo.

One combo I think is overlooked is Druid/Mage
Druid roots+snares+harmony with a mage fire pet will take you to L46+ Lots of options for either chain-petting, aggro-kiting, or good old fasioned rounds of "heal the pet".
I could see this combo getting a little bit harder/less effective in the top end without slows, when summoners come into play, and the fire pet begins to suck, however.
There could be reliable options for aggro kiting with a backstabbing water pet at that point, But summoners are the bane of aggro-kite combos.

I'd go Druid / Necro, then second choice would be Druid / Rogue. Another options is Druid / Mage. Pet can tank, druid can heal, ds, regen, hp buff and mage can either chain cast pets or dd.

I did a load of druid/rogue growing up on my druid, it just felt like such a waste to have the rogue go unhasted.

I ended up going with a Necromancer. We'll see how things go.
