What is the point in the druid class

All a "Class" is in Path of Exile is your starting location on the tree and your ascendancy.

For some reason GGG has taken on the idea that "Weapon type" or "spell catalog" now equals the class, and things are being built around those interactions and heinous combo nonsense.

It aint it.

Point is to create new ascendancies.




Same thing applies to all of them and all weapon types.

get some water...

And water the plants. Life is beautiful.

Yes with it being classless in design I get that but then it needs to be consistent. Meaning Demon Form needs to be its own thing as well. As for 3 separate ascendancies, that might be too much. I was envisioning something like Smith of Katava where there would be a node for each form then behind them are all the things that buff them/that playstyle.[/quote]

I do think this would have been better then what we got. And yeah have one node thats shapeahift then maybe have 3 branches with like 3 nodes. First giving you the animal form and the next two upgrading that form in some way. And yeah if everyone can shapeshift I wanna turn into a demon and summon a hell hound without having to be a blood mage. But they want each "character"(just another word for class by the way) to feel unique thats where the ascendencies come in. Otherwise why have sections of the tree for each 2 characters and just make everyone start in the middle and choose which location to start from depending on how you want to build your character?

But those ascendencies still need a basic role and gameplay style,which Druid lacks.

Neither of the Druids really DO anything than just buff random shit you have.If a player can't tell the purpose of something they're gonna argue it's a problem which it clearly is here.

the point of the druid is to get more suspiciously wealthy furries to play the game.
OwO

and from what i can see thus far they have delivered.

That's achieved with the Talisman weapon type, but not the Druid. They could have just released the weapon and it would have had the same effect. Druid is just for PR I guess.

It has a basic role and gameplay style.


Spells/Attacks

Point of Druid is exactly the same as for any class in this game.
Just a generic random shit to fit into everything, with very subtle direction towards given mechanic (or not).
