Multiclass druid?

Unread post by MistyMountain »

Hi, I have tried and tried to come up with a multiclass druid (shapeshifter) that is better than a full druid. Seems druid 20 duelist 10 would have a great ac but be very dispellable. Maybe druid 12 and magic beast/oaken resilience would be ok. You'd fill your spellbook with heals and forget about dispellable buffs. But what other classes would you take? Duelist/assassin for ac and hips?

Maybe something like this is what you're thinking of as a non-caster shapeshifter?

To be honest man its not very viable to multi-class druid at all due to Dragon Shape and Spells being very reliant on CL and DC's.

If you wan't to multi-class druid i would wait until the PRC Shifter is released same as i am.

Here is a link: http://nwn.wikia.com/wiki/Shifter

To me Dragonshape is equal parts boring, efficient and simply not fiddly enough for my play style.

Once you remove it as a focus for your character your options for interesting and unique builds open up greatly. I would still look to classes with spellcasting levels to focus on personally.

Hierophant, Thaumaturgist, Master Alchemist and Hospitaler are all on my list of classes to trial with new druid builds. It really comes down to what you want your druid to do and what theme you envision for them.

I see what you mean that without dragonshape your wildshape is mostly so you can be tanky while you cast spells..

I suppose the best bet for non-caster multiclass druid is non-shapershifter just for oaken resilience and some heals..

druid/ninja/duelist, Or druid/barbarian.. oh yeah! bear warrior is a melee shifter

also there is druid 12/assassin8/rogue 10 for Oaken/magic beast/epic precision/hips.. not as good as other rogue builds but instead of assassinating your hunting!

It is a conundrum isn't it.. well thanks for the thoughts.. I like conundrums! 8-)
