Therefore as a second, more realistic option, at least I would like if there were Druid-only feats to choose your 2nd, 3rd etc. wildshape form or improve your animal companion. So the druid who isn't interested much in animal companions get a smaller one that works as a scout but is of little use in fighting, and the druid who isn't keen on wildshape gets a simple form usable mostly for disguise.Why feats instead of class-specific selectable abilities?Because with feats you have a choice of taking wildshape-enhancement OR something completely different not even necessarily specific to the Druid class.</blockquote>
