i started a BG1 druid party game but it was one of the ones that i didn't finish

worth remembering that the druid armour restrictions mean they can't wear metal armour but that doesn't mean they can only wear leather . . .

BG2 druids do get more power (i'd add ironskins to six's spell highlights) and the BG2 druid character kits add some groovy features (powerful shapechanges or powerful summons) that are more powerful at lower levels -

i'm not sure whether level 1-6 totemic druids get to summon their spirit animal or whether a level 1 shapechanger can turn into a werewolf but if they can that would be almost game unbalancing for big chunks of BG1 - how about trying one of the MODs that allow you to play BG1 with BG2 rules and give it a go?
