Druid is a subosr choice for groups anyplace where there isn’t an animal, that’s it. Weakest class? Hah, no.
Druids are good for lazy bottom feeding duos too. A melee in their mid 50s with any druid in xp range only casting skin / str / regen / ds can pretty much chain kill without breaks.

Having a little druid buddy 2/3 your level following you around is pretty handy.

So yea, it seems druid partner well with characters they outlevel or underlevel, but perhaps not quite so well for characters whose level they match.

Druid by far. Honestly have no idea how that class is so popular. They have some niche areas that they can do well, but those are few and far between.
It's a super convenient class if you don't care about doing any particular endgame stuff. It has everything a casual player could dream of. Effortless travel, root and snare, heals, nukes, dots, buffs, able to function in groups, pretty good solo, can farm money... if it isn't important to you that your character is particularly good at anything, druid is perfect. It's the ideal class for seeing the sights and smelling the roses. Also an excellent moneymaking alt in classic where any remotely profitable content will be permacamped 24/7/365, but the porting business is always open to anyone and everyone.

They bring almost nothing to a raid, less you have that one off that will train up or hub tag or play goaltender , but any pet class can do that. The offheals is nice but they can’t keep up. They are pointless in vp minus hosh that every fire caster can hit too. I guess in fear prob their best raid least they can charm gorillas . I don’t care what they can solo at 60, if they can do it enchanter prob can too.

Wolf charms for AoW / KT

Vyemm heals

Gore

Melee spot heals

I can go on...but a good, active druid is much more than a porting / potg bot.

Talking strictly raiding. They're basically garbage for plat farm (just plat farm via dkp).

Enchanter can do, anyone can do Same heals on vyemm, any fire caster can on gore even mage, they can't keep up on spot heals over time. I can keep going on and on too.

Id say druids are still way more vauable to have in classic. Like someone said Pofear they can kite/Harmony/Charm/Snare charm mobs.

Classic Warriors just suck. Worst class in game in classic. Until they have Disc Knights just do it better. Even monk tanks are better. Mainly tanked via procs or root. Where knights have snap agro, self heals etc, can lull or FD pull, buffs, CCs(stuns,snare,fear).. Warriors just suck compared to them.

So why are yall so hell bent on druids as worst?

Side note.. Will say if warrior gets haste sword from Fear.. They do become dmg machines for a short while. Wolvars warrior in kingdom did really nice DPS.. but thats like only way to make warriors decent pre kunark.

I mean TL is 90% useful just because of an exploit of a legacy item. Brad is shaking his head.
