Perpetuating the off-topic, do y'all run wizards optimized for combat? Mine's specced mostly for dialogue and, while still very versatile, i can't keep him alive for more than 2 rounds.
The druid i'm running alongside him feels way sturdier in comparison, what with shapeshifting, barkskin and heals, and can also serve decentely well as melee/ranged DPS or support depending on who else i have in the party.
And to go back on topic, kinda, this run has allowed me to use extensively speak to animals and i gotta say it's really cool. Who knew talking to a squirrel or a toad could be so fun.
Well right now i suppose they would be awesome, since you could cheese scrolls and learn inflict wounds lol. They dont get great attack bonus, but i suppose it could be done.
As to the druid...oh yeah. Waaay sturdier. However wizard with mage armor and mirror image is pretty hard to hit. But you can get bark skin and mirror image on druid (though barkskin is concentration..so big loss there)
