I'm statting out a druid for this weekend, and trying to decide whether or not to take Track. I'm leaning towards not taking it, for two reasons:
1. My animal companion, a wolf, has Track, the scent special quality and the Track trick (from handle animal). This means I can tell him to track by scent, and the party can just follow him.
2. We're starting at 3rd level, so wildshape is only 2 levels away. That will let me turn into a wolf, cat or dog, all of which have Track and scent. I can then use my ungodly Survival bonus to do the tracking myself, and the rest of the party can follow me.
Am I missing something, or is it pointless to take Track given these two factors? Thanks in advance for your help.
