Moon druids have been a very popular and strong class since 5e was released. They are most powerful at lower levels, though. Turning into a 34 HP bear is great at level 2... not so much at level 5. Still, they are the best tanks at lower levels (2-5).
Their power fluctuates quite a bit with higher levels. They get more powerful forms at 6 and 9. That's when they get a bump in power, but the levels right before those feel a bit meh. At some points during the leveling process a druid player is better off just casting spells, because their wild shapes only last 1-2 rounds anyway.
The problem really are short rests. A DM won't let you short rest in the middle of a dungeon after every fight. That's what might push them over the edge in BG3.
