Helloooo,
Does anyone else feel that the Druid get-up is kind of stuffy? I get that Larian's trendsetters were going for an armour that evoked a tree, and they succeeded -- from the "crown" of leaves adorning the shoulders of the druids to the leather roots dangling between their legs and the branch and leaves details, the texture of the boots... that part was spot on!
And eagle-eyed lore fans will have noticed that Auntie Ethel's real shape as a Green Hag mirrors the Druidic clothes, only that she has plants and ferns sprouting directly from her shoulders and back. This makes sense, as legend goes that the first Green Hag was a powerful druid cursed by the same woods that she had sworn to defend.
I do love how Kagha's shoulder leaves kind of wither when she's defeated / changes allegiance, that was a fantastic choice to show her sadness and regret.
However, it does look like it's "Druid-formalwear" instead of their everyday garb.
Still, it looks too pretty and formal, particularly compared to the AMAZING feral and sexy armour and full body tattoos of the Shadow Druids, who look like vampiric picts. These are not displayed to full effect because Colodan & Co. are halflings, but they seem more appropriate for everyday wood-protecting, wild-shaping, hiding in the bushes, taking a dip in Silvanus' Pool, repelling humanoid invaders and other druidic activities. I would love to see my char wearing that.
