Hi Scott!

Druids are a LOT of fun to play! If you're planning to take along Jahera don't be a normal Druid, be an Avenger, since then you won't totally overlap her spells. Tip for Avengers and Shapeshifters: take a point in Single Weapon Style. Most of the things you'll transform into have weapons which count as single-handed, so you'll get bonus AC and critical hits when wearing those forms.

Totemic Druids are very powerful and fun, too. The "spirit animals" they summon are impervious to normal weapons (which makes clearing out most early dungeons a snap) and several of them inflict special damage types (poison and ice, off the top of my head).
I'm not a fan of Shapeshifters...
