ShapeshifterPlaystyle
A nature caster who can turn into animals with Wild Shape.
Druids cast nature magic with Wisdom and use Wild Shape to become animals such as a bear, wolf or spider. Circle of the Moon Druids get stronger animal forms and are excellent in melee. Land Druids focus on spells, and Spores Druids raise the dead and deal necrotic damage.
