Well said! I'm just a fan of clickies

Assling is the only answer, for Sneak alone. And good looks. But mostly Sneak.

Also they get sneak, but personally I never use it.

I use sneak all the time, but then again I'm a good player.

Tell me, how exactly would I use sneak while animal charming (which is basically all I do with my druid)? I want to become a "good player" like you.

well, not all animals is suceptible to you charms and even lots that are, are maybe skittish or shy and so it hard to work on them before they freak out an run away or try and bite you or somethin, so you gotta sneaks up on them :3

that what I assume he mean. only thing that really sorta make sense to me. otherwise, I dunno ^^

Hey, if you want to take a snarky jab literally, how about... There's way more to do as a druid than just charm animals. If that's all you do, I'd say you're missing out on a lot of the class's utility, on top of the huge breadth of everquest gameplay you're not partaking in.

... or maybe you could just refrain from assuming that everyone who doesn't play the way you do is a bad player?

Don't most druids solo level outdoors at lower levels and can just use OP unresistable lvl 5 Harmony? Or I assume if a druid was in a group indoors they usually wouldn't be pulling.

I'm interested to hear how often Halfling Druid's use sneak vs. Tunare druid's with root neck/eventually DS gloves. I think if I was going to start a Druid today I'd go for Tunare, even though Grasping Roots doesn't take that much mana having unlimited clicky root without taking up a spell gem seems extremely useful.

Keep in mind you're talking about a 4 second cast time when using the necklace (vs. half that if you cast the spell normally), for at best a 36 second root. Compare that to higher level roots you can cast: even just the level 24 root lasts almost 3x as long (1.6 minutes), and the higher level ones can cast faster or last even longer.

I've never actually had the Tunare symbol, so I can't speak from experience, and of course there will be times when all you need is a short duration root and you don't mind spending a couple extra seconds for it. All I'm saying is, it's still a level five spell that takes twice as long as normal to cast, so when you get higher in level you may find that it doesn't actually save you a spell slot because you want/need a better root.

I find the Tunare necklace underwhelming for all the reasons Loramin mentioned.

Basically over time I have come to appreciate halfling mojo. Sneak and hide add to that mojo.
