What's with all the druids?

[Spud]

My old main char was a cleric and i was always so jealous of all the things a druid could do. They have better nukes AND they get dots? and they can regen? and teleport and sow?? and snare kite red mobs all day long without even getting hit once?

It was a pretty easy choice for me two roll a druid this second time around.

True, druids will never be as in demand as clerics. Clerics are far better healers and can rez, they are specialists. Druids are stuck using lvl 29 spell Greater heal untill Kunark comes out lol. But they are STILL pretty damn valued (as compared to let's say a ranger, sorry rangers)... They are valued in pickup groups for their healing as well as their utility. They are valued in guilds for ports and are valued during raids for buffing/snaring/back up heals.

Ok so Unrest is packed but none of the groups need a druid? just port to North Karana and kite some griffs till a spot opens and gate back.

Their versatility and utility far outweigh the fact that they arent specialists or arent REALLY good in one thing. Thats why they are the most popular class on the server because they are (imo) the best class.

And what about track?? You cant underrated track!

Its so useful for farming items, even when you dont even really want to farm. Just passing through a dungeon and want to see if a rare mob just hit the track button.
