[QUOTE="Nyaricus, post: 2512536, member: 35678"] ummm, heres the thing, nothing in Q Druid helps with what is being said here. the only "variantions" of the PHB druid are some crappy skill-swapping bits and something about using a quarterstaff. I know this because i downloaded the book, read it, and promptly deleted it. not worth buying, in my estimation. besides, the PHB druid isnt even a "true" druid. if you check out my above comments, theres another thread-link which i give a basic outline of how the celtic-inspired (not shapechanging dudes with the "druid" title) druid really was, and his duties, etc. some good mineing info, for those who care. but . . .as for The Shamans original question, i think that the spirit shaman class from Complete Divine might be able to solve your problems with the druid. he has alot of abilities revolving around spirits, adn is nature-oriented too. if that [b]still[/b] doesnt satisfy you (if you decide to break your self-instigated taboo about using only PHB classes) just take the druid class, and get rid of wildshape, animal companion, and the thousand faces bit (the thousand faces abilitiy, along with the barbarians trap sense ability are tied for me in [b]things that irk me the most[/b] about the PHB classes) and swap in some powers from the spirit shaman. i am sure if you ask for, i, or someone else could go into greater deatil to help design a class for you. i think somethign a little non-standar might be able to help you here alot. anyways, good luck with all of this :D .
