Message: <blockquote data-quote="Derren" data-source="post: 1701144" data-attributes="member: 2518">And this Int 2 animal gives the druid exact direction and GPS coordinates? But the animal first has to swim all the way from the dragon to the druid who is very far away in safety.How likely is that?Other than the animal companion the animals won't help the druid much.if the dragon is finished with its rage, the swamp is barren.</blockquote>[How?  The dragon doesn't have Track.  And even if he did, a 10th-level druid can't be tracked.  That's what Trackless Step (Ex) does.[/quote]The druid has to sleep somewhere. Despite all the nature abilities, druids are as fragile as other humans when it comes to weather. Heat, Cold, all harms the druid. He needs a fire to cook his meals (or does a swamp has many berries for the druid to eat even before he got venom imunity?). Also druids have no divine health so unless he wants to cast remove disease after every heavy rain he better has a dwelling where he'd spend the levels before he could cast 3rd level spells.Also his equipment will also suffer when constantly exposed to the swamp.And why should the druid hide? After he chased away the dragon, there is no threat in his swamp.The  adult Steel dragon is only CR 8. But the steel dragons CRs are really screwed.The whole fight depends (as always in D&D) on the equipment. If the dragon has some good anti magic items, the druid has a serious problem. If not the druid has a clear advantage.A real cunning dragon might, when he can hit the druid one times, sunder the misteltoe.What action is it to transport from one tree to another? If it takes a action the druid runs the risk that the dragon destroys the tree while he is inside, instantly killing the druid. (Or the dragon might ready an action for it)[/QUOTE]
