A druid is a decent choice for your main group for a number of reasons. The primary reason is that they can cast [[Spell: Skin of the Drake|Skin of the Drake]], which is a line of spells that, when cast on another player, makes them get healed every time they are attacked (effectively making them invulnerable for the 18 second duration of the buff). [[Spell: Skin of the Drake|Skin of the Drake]] is great to cast on your puller before a large pull.<br><br>

Druids also do decent (but not great) DPS with their [[epic]] click and Seismic Shift spell, especially if they have [[Ultimate Charm]]. Their group regeneration is very large when coupled with heal modifying items.

What to expect from Druids on EZServer (2023):<br>
−
If you do plan on using a Druid for their AoE DPS capabilities, you should make sure to cast Werewolf Form (self-only [[mitigation]]), and invest in [[Slimy Sapphire of Cowardice]] for threat reduction, as their PBAoE can easily pull aggro, and they tend to be squishy.<br><br>
+
 
−
Even if you do not plan to run a Druid in your main group, it wouldn't be a bad idea to level one simply for [[Blessing of Ancient Oak]]
+
The Druid is a hybrid class and it's the only class except the original casters, [[Enchanter]], [[Wizard]], [[Magician]] and [[Necromancer]] that can get the [[Earring of the Ages|Earring of the Mystic Ages]], which will give a big increase in spell damage.

For the most part, Druids are used as healers. Spells like [[Spell: Breath of Nature|Breath of Nature]] from [[Halls of Honor]] and [[Spell: Timeless: Chlorobon|Timeless: Chlorobon]] from [[Abyss]] works quite well for keeping tank and group alive. They also get a spell called [[Spell: Skin of the Drake|Skin of the Drake]], which is a line of spells that, when cast on another player, makes them get healed every time they are attacked. [[Spell: Skin of the Drake|Skin of the Drake]] was nerfed in early 2015, and is not as powerful as it has been in the past, but is still a beneficial buff to put on your tanking character up to a certain point. In later tiers, it's healing is negligible.
 +
The [[Spell: Timeless: Pack Regeneration|Hit Point Regeneration buff]] they get will also help the hit point upkeep of your group, as well as the [[Spell: Blessing of Ancient Oak|Blessing of the Ancient Oak buffs]] which gives you a solid hit point bump.
 +
 
 +
Once your druid is attuned for [[Veeshan's Peak]] it gets some solid upgrades both in terms of DPS and healing. This fits well with Druids being a hybrid class. With the [[Spell: Fountain of Karana]] you can cast an area of effect rain healing spell that heals your entire raid in waves. This is a really strong spell that helps your paladins with the healing work. Since you can target a mob when using the healing spell, you can also add another strong ability to make the Druid do damage as well as healing the raid. The [[Idol of the Jailed]] is an item off [[Venril Sathir]] and it does some solid damage when you click it. Druids can wear the [[Earring of the Ages|Earring of Mystic Ages]], which will further increase that spell damage off the Idol.

Druid in Werewolf form using Crystalline Mace of Wisdom from Temple of Veeshan

What to expect from Druids on EZServer (2023):

The Druid is a hybrid class and it's the only class except the original casters, Enchanter, Wizard, Magician and Necromancer that can get the Earring of the Mystic Ages, which will give a big increase in spell damage.

For the most part, Druids are used as healers. Spells like Breath of Nature from Halls of Honor and Timeless: Chlorobon from Abyss works quite well for keeping tank and group alive. They also get a spell called Skin of the Drake, which is a line of spells that, when cast on another player, makes them get healed every time they are attacked. Skin of the Drake was nerfed in early 2015, and is not as powerful as it has been in the past, but is still a beneficial buff to put on your tanking character up to a certain point. In later tiers, it's healing is negligible. The Hit Point Regeneration buff they get will also help the hit point upkeep of your group, as well as the Blessing of the Ancient Oak buffs which gives you a solid hit point bump.

Once your druid is attuned for Veeshan's Peak it gets some solid upgrades both in terms of DPS and healing. This fits well with Druids being a hybrid class. With the Spell: Fountain of Karana you can cast an area of effect rain healing spell that heals your entire raid in waves. This is a really strong spell that helps your paladins with the healing work. Since you can target a mob when using the healing spell, you can also add another strong ability to make the Druid do damage as well as healing the raid. The Idol of the Jailed is an item off Venril Sathir and it does some solid damage when you click it. Druids can wear the Earring of Mystic Ages, which will further increase that spell damage off the Idol.
