[QUOTE="Anthony Terry, post: 6497754, member: 6776492"] They would probably feel about the same way non-druids do when the druid has 4 animal companions including a bear, and they still cant get their guard dog to stay out of the way of lazor fire. The simple answer is and the only true one is that clerics cant wear Metal and have a nature focus so that they are a different class to cleric. Remove their inability to wear armour and the only real difference between the two other than some optional perceptions of how the classes should behave and your only left with a slight spell list descrepency. As some of us have touched on, in earlier editions of the game it was elaborated on allot more and it wasnt really anti-metal, more anti man-made and had allot to do with it interfering with the natrual magic of the world. If that as an explanation isn't enough then i really would suggest just not using the rule, because other than our own personal feelings / elaborations on the above theres no other answer to give.
