If you want a character who is 90% shapeshifter and 10% druid, Moon Druid will underwhelm you, in the same way that someone who wants a 90% undead guy and 10% wizard will be underwhelmed by 5E necromancers. Moon Druids and Necromancers are best for the guys who want to play generalists with a special shtick in addition: a (Shapeshifter) Druid instead of a Shapeshifter (Druid).If one of my players had a similar complaint I'd propose allowing him to be a hyper-specialized Moon Druid who can shapeshift into fey/humanoids/giants/monstrosities as well as beasts (no special powers though, e.g. no jackalwere immunity to weapons or medusa petrification), and at CR = level/2 instead of level/3, but in return is only a 1/3 caster like an Eldritch Knight.</blockquote>
