Yes you are right for classic EQ (1-50)

But the current state of p99, druids have the second strongest direct heal spell (nature's touch) and along with chloroblast this makes druids pretty damn good main healers. Back when I used to raid all the time, I would regularly solo heal rogue groups on raids like Zlandicar. I mentioned Zlandicar to put it into perspective. A lot of AE damage goes out on that fight, and its no easy task to be able to heal it as a cleric, let alone a druid.

I played a druid main on live and due to lacking clerics many times we were forced to use Druids in CH rotations even though they didn't have a true CH (I think it was 75% iirc). It wasn't ideal but if you put a druid between two clerics in the rotation it could work. Considering all the other stuff druids bring to the table that is pretty damn good IMO. Of course, that is not applicable here on P99 but I think druids are probably underrated here as well. Sure, they sorta suck early but once they get leveled up some they start to shine. I love having a druid in the group. They bring a lot of utility and decent healing.
