Because I am a francophone myself, and I'd buy a not too costly and nice translation if possible. So, any words of if and when?
(It's kind of weird the brazilians and italians may have their own translations first...)
At the base, it's a cleric of nature things, anyway. A shaman, a mystic.
You can make an argument that a ranger is a fighter simply, with wilderness skills and feats. ;)
Funny, you are the example of the fact it's the OPPOSITE;
Anyone who like even slightly the changes is a fool, and the ones who agree with them are corporate chills or morons!
I am an old gamer (a bit); for me, a Druid is basicaly a nature-oriented cleric, a shaman of sort...
It's reducdant for me. If you can heavily customise classes like Clerics. a Druid class is kind of useless and reducdant.
You know, I was inmplying in the world - of course, the PC are different. Could be a whole party out of them (like a party of Awakened in Shadowrun).
That don't make them common out on the world, NPC-wise.
Honestly, I never saw much the point of the druid class, now that you perhaps can have very customised priests. Or shaman.
For me, it should all be melded into a generic cleric class.
See it that way - in religions, lay members outnumbers clerics by a large number. So....
They are all very spiritual, but not many actualy pursue the full path and take the vows.
I may be wrong, but stat-wise, the Drow of FR is perhaps slightly different.
Now, the good drow is ever a rarity... very, very rare, even in FR. Unlike what the haters may say, it's a chance in hell to find an eilistrean.
