Nope, pretty interesting combo when you put it that way.

Unfortunately, prior to the addition of the %heals (which is PoP era I think) I remember druids just not being a very adequate group healer in Velious/Kunark.

Similarly, I can remember being annoyed when a group had both a druid and a cleric: the druid ended up spending mana nuking since typically a cleric could handle the heals (especially when you count in slows). And unfortunately, druid is a very weak dps class for group purposes.

I guess my point is: it's a nice trio, but at some point you've got something akin to dead weight in a class that isn't very useful in a 6-man group. I guess the utility makes up for it though, if they're very skilled. Since druids solo so often/easily, there's often a lack of "group skills" in many players which may account for part of my sentiment.
