Ya, you see, there is this thing called Roleplaying. Oh yeah, the waning moon does suck. But hey, Full moon absolutely rocks, so deal with it. Anyhow, Fienn's thoughts, hopefully organized this time.
And well, it's actually pretty fun, and even *gasps*
required on this MUD. And I could argue against every
"point" you've made.
For one, Druids are *not* outclassed. And though I feel
that this class is still incomplete (speaking of the
Call of the Wild skill and various areas that it *should* work in, but doesn't). And also, it would be
nice if Herbal Forage gave you some kind of clue, but everyone's heard that argument before. As far as sunray....ummm, have you seen what that thing does bub?
And keep in mind, it can work on any Align/ethos combo
and most mobs take a LOT of damage from it as well.
What other divine class gets this pocket-Nova? Well, shamans get demonfire, but if you've played one then you'd know that sometimes that supplication does jack-shit against mobs. But, ya, if you want to be an offensive badass, go with the shaman. THAT'S WHAT THEY'RE FOR!!! But keep in mind that properly played Druid that is (Keyphrase here) IN THE WILD, they will do quite well.
