[QUOTE="Gloombunny, post: 3777867, member: 54916"] breschau, you're reading too much into too little solid information. They have not said "druids will be leaders", so stop acting like they have. Wyatt said something in response to a question that could certainly be interpreted to mean that druids will be as good at healing as clerics, but it wasn't a clear unambiguous statement that druids will be as good at healing as clerics. And while healing is definitely a leader-role thing to do, that doesn't mean that druids will be leaders. We already know that warlords are leaders and it seems fairly obvious that they aren't going to have all that much in the way of healing. But that's okay, because the leader role is not simply a healer role. If it were, they'd call it "healer". Perhaps they're going to make healing a much less important part of the game overall, thus allowing a party to get by having a warlord as its closest thing to a healer. In which case a druid could have strong healing abilities and still not be a leader, because it lacks the buffing and support abilities that truly define the role. Or, maybe your interpretations will turn out to be correct and the druid will fill exactly the same role as a cleric. Either way, there really is not enough information yet to know. [/QUOTE]
