It's also a lot easier for a new player to get a few generic forms "strong animal, sneaky animal, bird" and go with that. Druid is BY FAR the class I've seen new players gravitate towards. And its utterly awful to learn to play. Prepared caster plus looking up other stat blocks in other book(s). Oh wait, you use some of your stats. Oh and use your HP. Plus some temporary hit points. Oh don't use the attack bonus in the stat block, you modify it by your proficiency bonus instead. No, this isnt on D&D beyond. Why is this crap so needlessly complicated? Because some min-maxers demand to flex their system mastery to eek out extra dps and shoehorn in their character's trip to Chult to justify having seen a velociraptor?There's no good reason for this other than some people want to beat the baseline by cherry picking the best forms, rather than just having the appropriate power level form simply given to them.The class is already a full caster. It doesnt need to also get to become a dire osquip for the ability to ignore hardness when chewing through stone or whatever ultra niche special property the pro MM combers want to trot out.</blockquote>
