@@travisterry2200 well hydie was a tiefling druid bard. Her mother died during childbirth, and her dad raised her until she was 5, when he died in a bar brawl. She then was raised by her grandfather Randolph, and by the time she was 25 she was a travelling con artist with him. The druid aspect was kind of a subset of her personality, she was very much a "momma bear" character, in particular with orphans. The mechanics of it were "I don't like clerics but I wanna be a healer"

Personally I think a Tortle works best for a Druid. And they're fun as hell to play. Strength and Wisdom stat bumps and the thematic "animalistic" connection. Wild shape a few times for all kinds of HP but you still have a natural AC of 17 (without a shield) in between shapes. Even if you focus on Spell Casting, you have killer AC! Hold breath for an hour... natural claw weapons... shell defense... survival skill... and the picture from The Tortle Package even has a little red bird chillin' up on the Tortle's back.

Though stat wise probably not the best choice in a traditional setting, a half-orc worked well for me. When we played "Out of the Abyss" we created a whole party of half-orcs. As a Circle of the Moon my half-orc crit bonus and con bonus worked well. Thematically having a whole party of half-orcs enabled us to blend in everywhere we went.

This was a fun video since I decided to make a Firbolg Druid and choose Circle of the Moon and that is very different than the type of characters I tend to gravitate towards so I hope to have some fun with both that race and class. Again keep up the great videos because they are tremendously helpful for people like myself and I am sure even for old vets of the game as well.

I loved the concept of a hafling druid. I had one (a stout) that MC'ed into barbarian. Minor problems was not having 2 bonus actions in a round (barbarian rage and wildshape as a moon druid are both bonus actions). But he was a tough fighter. I feel that they lack some feats that could elevate the druids a little bit, like getting more wildshapes per short/long rest. Oh - and I basically had no need for any magical item we found. :)

Liked your list, but even as you mentioned the Warforged, you missed the Shifter. Not too sure I agree with the Forest Gnome as the only thing they have going for them is the ability to speak with SMALL animals (OK, maybe the saves VS spells too). I would have gone for the Changeling, who chooses Int instead of Dex just to boost those immutable ability scores, also boosting those scores, allows higher stats in the "dump" stats for a rounder Char, also there's the ultimate infiltrator thing going with the Change Appearance as well as the Wild Shape...( smash it with some Bard (!!)

I wanna play a Goblin druid-rouge like bastard attitude, something like a fallen druid who still can use Druidic spells, so it can always trap enemies with thorn whips and entangleds and with some Fog clouds heavely darkened so i can move within with the racial dark vision and stab them with my daggers or cimitars or getting near so i can use Poison spray safely, or throw at them bottles of oils and fir'em up with my Produce flame xD

Didn't mention at 18th level a elf druid can live for like 8000 years like yea it's lvl 18 but if your talking about a long term character it's by far the best option role play wise and I'm sure you can figure some sorta mechanical advantage with that age

Did anyone mention that the Ghostwise Halfling can use their telepathy to communicate, even while wild-shaping? Pretty useful!

Hm... Been wanting to make a Firbolg Druid, but... I never do. Huh. Or Firbolg Ranger... I've made a Firbolg Fighter for 2e AD&D before, though. Silly weapon restrictions. Oh, I can't use more than clubs and specific weapons for giants at the back of the book? Okay, clubs are my throwing/ranged option then.

Hey guys! Wait so I have a question? Was shifter introduced in eberon? If so that was one of my favorite races from before fifth edition. They're animalistic and kinda get a mini wild shape thing.

Novice player here, I'm a half elf Druid. Can I focus on spellcasting but have SOME shape shifting capability, just maybe not a good as if I committed to Circle of Shepherd? Example, can Circle of Moon do "some" Shape Shifting? If my "Main Trick" is ONLY turning into beasts during combat, sounds like a drag, but I'm also very intrigued with having at least some shape shifting in my back pocket. If I'm primarily a "Shape Shifter", can I provide any healing and support to my party of adventurers beyond doling out a few Goodberries before combat??

If you can mention centuars and warforged, why not mention shifters? Wild hunt shifter gets a +2 Wis bonus as well as their shifter bonus to wisdom based saves and rolls.

I've just started playing one. DM restricted class to PHB and I had just finished a campaign playing a forest gnome arcane trickster rogue. I wanted to play a different class. Only level 2 at the moment but went Circle of the Moon and loving the CR1 beasts. Druids seems like a more complex class, but I'm down for the challenge, even if I am just getting back into D & D. thanks for the video guys :)
