[QUOTE="steeldragons, post: 6006225, member: 92511"] I find it interesting that in 7 pages of posts in this thread, no one has mentioned the 1e shapechanging abilities of the druid class. It doesn't have to be from 1st level on...it doesn't have to be any time I want all of the time...it doesn't have to be something the druid class focuses on or was "always built around." You couldn't do it at all until 7th level. You got to do it 3 times per day. 1 mammal, 1 reptile, 1 bird. (and then, of course the healing element when you changed back) That's it. 3 times per day...whether you were 7th level or 27th. And any animals you wanted...but only 1 mammal, 1 reptile and 1 bird per day. I prefer this style (not necessarily the animal type restriction, but...) as a feature of the class, but not THE defining feature. You had to get to 7th level before you EVER shapeshifted! THE defining feature, as someone noted in here someplace are the DRUIDIC/NATURE SPELLS! Not some totally overpowering ability that no other class can possibly compare with. A nice flavorful, but limited ability...that's all it has to be. Now, whether you want to work that into the spell list or a Channel Divinity [or "Channel Nature" in the Druid's case] limited uses per day ability...I don't really care. Either way can work. --SD [/QUOTE]
