So far so good. Fun new class. One doubt I had was in choosing a race. This one is a Kobold because I thought druids would primarily be magical, relying on wisdom and stealth. However, with all of the beast forms, melee is important. Thinking maybe I should have chosen Dunadan or Dwarf instead. Still, Meteor Swarm is effective outside of melee distance.

If you're wondering why I'm carrying food, it's to use after Rapid Renewal and then changing to a beast form with higher max health such as Pukel-Man. Otherwise, Fed status ends up hungry or weak from hunger after a few turns.

Have been using Turn Stone to Mud a lot to dig up large anti-summoning corridors for fighting uniques and other high-level enemies. Tremor can be useful with enemies such as Gothmog that bore through walls. Slow Monster is good too, limiting Cantoras and Pazuzu to reasonable speeds. Haven't been shapechanging as much lately because that prevents casting these spells.

A relatively easy battle with Morgoth. Not because of anything in particular about my character, but because he summoned a bunch of medium-level undead which couldn't do much damage. So I just left them there and kept meleeing him, leaving little room for him to summon more dangerous enemies. Meanwhile ?banishment got rid of a Greater Balrog and some other high-level demons that he summoned.

I hit him a few times in bear form but had to give that up soon in order to use various healing potions in between attacks. So !berserk strength proved useful even though bear form also provides berserking. !life and ?rune of protection seemed worth collecting even though I only found a few of each.

My stats didn't seem all that great until I found Vilya, providing +3 to everything.

A mix of meteor storm and melee forms seems like a good playstyle for druids. Some enemies were too dangerous to beat completely while in bear form, but changing back to normal requires 0 turns, so there is no risk besides the stealth penalty. For some battles even late into the game, pukel-man form helped endure better than bear form, such as dragons that caused damage in multiple melee hits rather than one-shot breath attacks.

You would think a druid would use a lot of magic. However there was never any use for !restore mana during the final battle, and rarely at any time during the game. In contrast, I use them all the time with priests, especially during the final battle.

Cool, this is all excellent info - it sounds like druids are working pretty well.

Yes, the class seems well balanced and the playstyle makes sense. The most important changes I think need to be made are posted in the forum: 1) Many items can still be used while shapeshifted, and 2) Fox form melee is unexpectedly powerful, making it an easy way to kill enemies until pukel-man form is available. If that's the intention then the description of fox form could be changed: quick and stealthy with sharp teeth.

As for enhancements, it would be nice to have a less fiddly way to combine Rapid Renewal and Remove Hunger without getting weak.
