How do people rate druids?

[Torven]

Ok so, I'm a 60 druid and I'll give my two cents.

Druids are not primary healers after like level 40. CH is essentially the only tank heal late game. Basically if my friends give me charity by grouping me, my sole job is to cast every non-CH heal on non-tanks so the cleric does not have to waste mana on non-CH heals to eliminate downtime. DDs and dots are way too expensive in this game (for any class) to be a form of viable DPS.

If you want to play a druid at the higher levels, learn how to charm and quad kite, because finding groups will be difficult. If you don't intend to play one to a high level, then go nuts.

Essentially I made a druid to help my friends out by porting them and powerleveling them. Druids are also really handy for misc chores like selling in EC and camping green dungeons. They are a great supplementary character. I really would not recommend the class to somebody who wouldn't make other characters to do things with, though. I have a 56 magician and 52 warrior to play when my friends need a class for serious content.
