[QUOTE="Minigiant, post: 9248742, member: 63508"] What I was saying was to 10 primal beast statblocks in the PHB and have the Moon Druid's wildshape, Beastmaster Ranger's beast companion, and the Conjure animal spell refer to them. CR based wildshape, campanion, and summons would be a DM option. So a primal bear would work for a bear, owlbear, or even gorrila. Big meaty beasts with claws that can climb. Whereas the primal wolf would represent wolves, big dogs, hyenas, or even drakes with their strong senses, team tactics, and bite. This creates a simpler list of forms to think about while allowing for flexibility. The "all the beasts are possibilities" on top of a full caster guarantees low use. Druid was OP in 3e and people still didn't play it. If someone comes to a stable with a druid, there a good 50% of trouble because there is a high chance of newish player not fully utilizing the class or a veteran who knows too much. [/QUOTE]
