EverQuest Cleric Druids?

[KingofstarrySkies]

Druids. Of all the magicians, they are the worst. Bunch of mushwizards is what they are.

[Orange Wizard]

I wouldn't be surprised if they actually were all druids, honestly.

[Yoink]

Druids are awesome. Also pretty powerful, in D&D at least.

[Rolan7]

Yeah.  They don't have nearly the spell access that Clerics have (and they can't spontaneously cast from Book of Exalted Deeds like nonevil clerics can, some-freakin-how).

But Summon Nature's Ally is a lot more useful mid-combat than healing spells.  If it's really so bad, summons some unicorns.  Out of combat, "goodberries".

[Putnam]

Yeah.  They don't have nearly the spell access that Clerics have (and they can't spontaneously cast from Book of Exalted Deeds like nonevil clerics can, some-freakin-how).

Clerics are up there with Wizards as "those guys who can do literally everything that needs to be done as long as they know they'll need to do it that morning", so I'm not sure that's a fair comparison.

[DeKaFu]

Medabots why. You're suppose to be like Robot Beyblade. THIS DOES NOT BELONG IN ROBOT BEYBLADE D:

Bit late, but oof. My sister's really involved in the English-speaking Medarot fandom (runs the wiki, works on translation projects) and now she's conflicted about whether or not to buy this one. She's pre-ordered all the other recent games (Medarot 9 just came out, I think) and she's pretty invested in the new robots coming with this one, but it's also a bit too creepy.

It's actually a really long-running series (has at least 12 RPGs and a few action games) so it's... disappointing it's suddenly veering off in this direction.

@Putnam
I mean you're right, but, Druids can cast about as many spells per day.  Just from a much more limited list...  But with spontaneous summoning?

Maybe helped that we thought summoning took place same-turn, we honestly never noticed that the casting time was "1 round" instead of "standard action".  Which is pretty vague anyway, if you ask me.

Anyway though, druids have access to (sorta weird) healing spells, and loads of elemental damage spells.  They aren't quite as versatile, but they get the ability to shapeshift into a melee powerhouse and have an animal companion twice as powerful as a ranger's.  Druids are pretty crazy, and require a bit less planning.

[Orange Wizard]

Druids are a second-tier class IIRC, cleric and wizard are first-tier.

[Flying Dice]

Druids are firmly rooted in tier 1.

[Yoink]

You say they aren't versatile, but I think they can really branch out.

[Xantalos]

WE HAVE CORRPUTED YOINK

[Shadowlord]

You can Endure Elements and Create Water your way across a desert, raise/lower water level or just breathe water, deflect arrows with Wind Wall, warp bows, burn or freeze people with metal weapons or armor, rust metal on touch, call lightning, escape by teleporting through trees or plants, etc.

If I wanted to pick a caster class to try to assassinate someone with, I'd probably pick a druid.

(Says a person who really only plays D&D computer games)

[Yoink]

I used to think druids were lame, but they're really groveing on me.
The more I learn about druids, the more I'm lichen them.
