Totemic Druid (Druid Kit)

This Druid closely identifies with a particular animal — an animal he feels represents his spirit. This grants him a special connection to the animal kingdom, and he is able to call upon their spirits to aid him.

Advantages

  • May summon a special spirit animal once per day every 5 levels. The spirit animal is randomly selected from: Spirit Bear, Spirit Wolf, Spirit Lion, Spirit Snake.

Disadvantages

  • Cannot shapeshift. No wolf/bear form is available.

When to pick it

  • A summoning-focused Druid that trades the personal shapeshift for permanent expendable allies.
  • Pairs well with parties already strong in melee — the spirit animal pulls aggro.
