Double Application : Level 1 we_don't_know_yet

[Talomin]

Well it sort of makes sense to try to understand what are the needs of a specific community

The euro community is actually quite high,always plenty of classes of each.
Though out of a guild group you might find it harder as a druid to get groups,but that's been the same since day one of EQ.
Whatever you choose you will always find groups in guild and never ever be turned away from a raid because you are x class.
Play what you enjoy,pointless playing a class you don't.
Did i mention shamans are the uber class and troll is the uber race

if u want to group to 60 the sad truth it is best to avoid wizard/druid unless u start every group yourself

Also, when Velious hits, Druids are by far the 2nd best healers

EDIT: Ahh yeah, Nature's Touch... So druids get more heal/second but stay much worse for sustained healing. It certainly catches them up a bit but I'd still put shammy 2nd with Torpor for casters and canni for mana regen.

Anyway as Gav said, play what you enjoy. It doesn't sound like you really want to play druid and as pointed out, it's not an optimal choice for grouping.

Torpor has massive side effects, that make it superb when healing a group but little use when healing a tank in a raid (At least when fighting a boss).

Also, when having Canni is ubber and I cannot say anything here, druids have a massive spell at their dispossal for increase mana regen:

http://wiki.project1999.com/Protection_of_the_Glades" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; (+6/tick) (Arguably one of the best buffs in the game, and group casteable).
http://wiki.project1999.com/Form_of_the_Howler" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; (+2/tick) (Greatest run speed in game without counter-benefits).

However, the lack of a slow is kinda a handicap, and you will probably find less groups in your way up. We have ports in exchange for slow, which are great, but little use in grouping aside for the ocassional evac.

But anyway, I'm not telling you to play druid ofc. Play what you enjoy the most. Just wrote this to answer to Wazzock

Gavii strop your propaganda! Droods suck, accepting it is the first step to recovery! Shamies are uber, 'nough said.

Pick whatever you want to play, have fun, that's what you're here for!

Sorry to interrupt, but druid > all! 'Nuff said!

I'll be a druid, sort off

When we started on Vazaelle my bother wanted a Magician, I made him create a wizard because I wanted ports (he never regreted it tho). On WoW he wanted a mage, I made him make a Paladin because I wanted heals, later on we changed server and he had to healbot me again...

So this time I'm taking the bullet, he wants a rogue so I'll be his port-sow-heal-kite bitch. All our loot, time, money will go into his gear. If we ever make it to raid level and my druid is useless we'll PL a cleric for me.

I may also have a friend coming to join us. He was talking about a warrior. If he has the backbone to reach level 40+ I'll also make a cleric.
