[QUOTE="JoeGKushner, post: 4497616, member: 1129"] Play to the strengths of 4th edition. More points of light, less druids. Druids become the province of the NPC via the Human entry in the monster manual. After all, it's not like the original SL was set up to handle all the non-open stuff that WoTC came out with later. Putting places for the various entities from Tome of Magic, Book of Nine Swords, etc... required some finese. Surely utilizing 3rd party support in such roles would require no more work. This is especially true if the new edition is aimed at the strengths of 4e instead of trying to ram the old setting bits into the new edition. The old setting has enough utility that there's a lot of material that can be worked into 4th ed without having to convey everything. After all, how many paragon paths can we get out of the old Vigilant eh? Three? Four? Druids are neat but even in the 3.5 version, they often took the form of adversaries. If Fiery Dragon doesn't decide that they're going to be in the hands of the players, it won't cripple the setting for me. [/QUOTE]
