Druids are cool. Fighter/Druids rock! It's unfortunate that Black Isle doesn't allow Elven Fighter/Druids.

I can't recommend HoW enough, though. I though Druids' spells were severely underpowered until I got HoW. Now I'm falling in love all over again. HoW druids get many cool shapeshifting powers, too.

You need at least one point in Large Swords to use a Flame Blade effectively. FBs are great weapons vs. the undead and vs. trolls.

Druids can use Daggers! I always neglect this fine weapon. There are many, many cool daggers in IWD, and at least one +2 (and other interesting effect) Dagger in Dragon's Eye. I also found a +3 club one time through that area, though not the second time.
