I read a thingy that said BioWare decided that for BG2, they had to impose a very low level cap on Druids because otherwise, they'd be far too powerful. (In BG1, a Druid gains levels even faster than a Thief--can you imagine what would happen if this was true in BG2 as well?) Then for ToB, they removed the cap and let Druids get buff again, because the bad guys in ToB were strong enough to handle a high-level Druid. Hence the Druid's really screwy level gain and spell progression from Level 14 to 15.

Myself, I've got a Druid that I spent about half an hour Rerolling....now that he's eaten the Tomes, he's got 19/18/17/9/21/16. I'll got either Totemic or Avenger (probably Totemic), and Dual around level 17.
