Having played a druid over many years and servers, I can probably sum up the class with one word.
Utility.
Buffs - AC/HP, DS, SoW, Regen.
CC - Sure its been called "ghetto mez" but a timely snare and root have saved a group more than once
Ports - No better way to make the world that little bit smaller. Also, evacs.
DPS - DDs and stacking DoTs.
Tracking - Find it, kill it, prof it.
Toss in some heals and its hard to find a class with more flexibility.
Although not as good as any other class in any of the above examples, the fact that no other class has nearly as many tools in their kit shows the versatility of a druid.
