I am not an expert for 5E.
What makes druids so good?

In BG2 Jaheira was good for insect plague to stop everyone from casting and panic some of them.
Apart from stone skin she had nothing tanky, as far as I remember.

In 3E they had an animal companion and they could turn every spell into a summon monster spell.

In those games I almost never used shapeshift, Jaheira as fighter/druid was better with weapon and armor and in NWN2 the druid companion was mostly a heal and buff bot because there was no cleric early. Her badger was useless so I made him a dinosaur.
