Druid Speculation

(1/12) > >>

Sausageman:
I've been giving a bunch of thought to what schools the Druid will have training in, or won't have.
I'm reasonably certain she'll have Nature magic in some capacity, but given that water magic hasn't seen any love yet, I kinda feel she'll have some of that too.  But then I think earth magic might be applicable too, and we know there's a meteor strike card that WASN'T in the Forcemaster vs Warlord expansion, so maybe that's right too.

So, in short, anyone got any ideas what the Druid might have?

I'd bet on a pattern similar to that of the Wizard (Nature + one elemental school) or perhaps Nature, Water and Earth with Fire and Dark as triple cost.

*only* Nature + Water feels a bit wonky to me, might as well have Mermaid vs Necro then  B)

baronzaltor:
My bet would be nature/holy, or nature/earth. or even just nature with different abilities than the BM.  Remember the BM only has 1 school trained, as does the Priestess and Forcemaster... so theres no guarentee that it will be two.
Also, nature seems to get triple cost vs fire.  So will be interesting to see if that carries over.  

My only wish for the Druid is two very simple words: "Animate Conjuration"  Would love to turn mana flowers, the great tree of life, a lair and a renewing spring into an army of ent monsters.

Gewar:
Nature is for sure.
It is possible to mix it with non-fire element and Air and Earth seams better for me than Water (I know plants drink water etc. but Water school probably would be connected with deep-ocean spells, which is not so thematic).
Other possibility is there will be somethink like Nature + Holly Incantations. Giving one Mage two Major schools seams overpowered.

I like wise but dangerous when angry archetype of Druid. With calling storms and making trees attack. I also like archetype of druid that lives in small human community rather than hating all things that have two legs.

What I would NOT like to see is Druid-shapeshifter. Running around in bear form takes away all that wise-priest-of-nature theme for me.

Paleblue:
My thoughts are that Necro will use dark and water (I think it was mentioned somewhere that he would use frost attacks?). Therefore I doubt that Druid will too, but I could see him using nearly any of the other minor schools.
