Nice class. I'd probably still prefer a shaman, but the druid looks good. I bit more cast-y than the shaman but the lack of a shield probably means a druid goes down much faster.

Looks like the Dwarf Caster will be the only Fire GM. Hopefull they'll have Light GM as well, so they can work as some kind of cleric with blasting thrown in.

Elf which is "only" expert with bow? What a blasphemy! (^_^)

More seriously, this kind of Druid goes against same named earlier series. If you look at MM6 you find druid wielding elemental and magic of self, as well as leather armor, bows, maces and staffs. But not light&dark magic. Quite a difference, don´t you think? Party made of druid had hard start, but godly end of game.
Though it got trimmed a lot in MM7 XD
This looks more balanced. I hope to see some nice staffs for druids and magicians in the game. Who heard of fighting with focus in hand?!

Seriously, the Druid is an elf? Really? Same as all Tolkien Middle Earth fiction? Druids were originally Human, not Elves. Even in M&M. This is lame.

XFYSBOWTIE: You probably didn´t played HoMaM, did you? Only faction which has druid there are elfs.

JSEBELA: Gem (HoMM3 SoD, HoMM4) is a Human Sorcerer & Druid, but overall you're right about the racial seperation here, yes.
The Expert on the skill Bow is in a way a "just Expert level" for an Elf, but it is "wow it's Expert" on a Magician class. So I think that's quite okay.

I'm more amazed there is no Staff weapon skill in this M&M, since that's what a Druid usually'd use. Making it a 2H-weapon and then the Master in Two-Handed wield would actually still be effective.
(unless there are magic buff spears)

Everyone knows the best party in MM6 was Knight, Paladin, Cleric and Sorcerer. With Cleric and Sorcerer you get all Light and Dark spells :P Day of Protection, and Hour of Power FTW :D

Druid looks good, but I think he should be able to become master in dagger or spear.

For those that missed it: there ARE magic staffs in this MM. One of the rank perks for Magic Focus allows you to use magic staffs, essentially the two-handed version of a magical focus.

Allowing the druid to be able to master spear seems like a bad idea to me, since that would deprive shamans of their main advantage over other caster types.

@grakortheorc: did not know that, the early access' bugs annoy me too much to actually play more than a couple of hours :-)
@rsurdal: 2 knights > 1 knight + 1 paladin in MM6 ;-) then cleric and sorcerer with the super buffs indeed haha

I haven't played yet either, but the Druid looks to me like a support caster, the closest thing we have seen so far to the old cleric class.

I'd like to inspect Water magic spells. If they as great as Fire magic spells, then druid with great mana capacity is my choice.

Mr3lion: Don´t bother they are unusable. For example, water membrane protect by 0.3%! There is no enchant item, no town port and no lloyds beacon.

Tried one and healing capacities mixed with some damage dealing ones ( poison ) makes a nice combo
