Assuming you reach 49+ for that stage of the game, you will really, really wish you had maxed out Defense for your role in groups you can get into. On top of healing, it's likely that if your group has no CC that you'll be asked to root park stuff. Happens somewhat often in places like Karnor's, and that means your druid is gonna get beat on while parking 2-3 things in corners.
I'd suggest getting some dirt cheap high AC druid wearable items and raise that Defense at low levels where it's still safe to do so. Bark shield or Chitin Shell shield, thick leather apron or straw spun belt, Lumberjack's cap for sure, drolvarg mantle... Just stuff that is cheap as hell but with a Banded AC or better so you'd toss it on an alt later and not feel bad buying them.
Springwood club is really sweet too.
