Druid is one of the few classes that didn't get a companion, so I decided to try the game with a druid as my PC (I only mean to play until the beginning of Act 6, because that's where the fun stops).

I've just reached Level 7. So far, it's not bad, but it's definitely not as enjoyable as some of the other classes I've tried (such as bombardier or bard).

The pet (I chose a leopard) is pretty strong. It makes the beginning of the game a lot easier on Hard.

On the other hand, I didn't get much use out of my summoning spells. The creatures I can summon are not that strong, even though I took some feats meant to boost them. As a defender of the true world, I can't summon fey creatures. Maybe they're better ?

The spells that are only available to druids (and not to clerics, for instance) don't seem to be that great. Some of them are decent, but some seem rather useless.

Wild Shape is pretty fun. But having too many animals in the party can be a problem, because they're larger than normal party members and they have to be right next to an enemy to attack him. Right now, I have my druid PC, her leopard and Ekundayo's dog in the party, and they tend to get in each other's way when there are fights in cramped spaces (especially since the pathfinding isn't very good in Pathfinder).

I hate that feyspeaker is such a shitty class. It fits the game so well.

Fuck, the guy who speaks with fey even loses the ability to spontaneously summon them. Goddammit paizo.

Feyspeaker is strongest Druid, especially for MC.

Mirror Image is that good.

Ekun/Okbo are OP anyway, so good to find an excuse not to use them outside of their quests.

You haven't hit the really good Wild Shapes yet, or the best unique Druid spells, although Longstrider is pretty damn handy right off the bat and it's nce to have someone who can cast a full Barkskin so you don't need Jub to do it.

Summoning Spells likewise get a lot better once you get multiple wolves.

I think one gets STR and the other gets iteratives or something like that.

His name is just Dog if you respect Ekun after giving him his name.

A friendly reminder: while we deeply admire the contribution that mod authors make to our game, we would like you to remember that running custom modifications can lead to unexpected bugs and crashes. Unfortunately, if you encounter any issues while playing with mods, our team will not be able to help you. If this happens, please report these issues to the mod's original creator. Also, remember that after each game update, there is a high probability of previously installed mods not functioning properly. If you wish to play with mods anyway, disabling auto-updates might prevent your save files from becoming corrupted.

As someone who has never used tb mod before I have to say I love the new tb mode and with the possibility of yuge animation speed increase it doesn't fell like a slog at all.
