Vanguard Druids

The Druid Class

Druids wield control over the elements of nature to immobilize enemies in stout earthen grips and cut them down with bone shattering lightening. Manipulating the very construct of nature, they can transform benign stones into enraged hulks to pummel enemies with stone fists.

Phenomena

The druid can summon forth large, natural events known as Phenomena. These phenomena are quite powerful and taxing to cast. They are among the biggest spells in the game. Phenomena are split into two categories: Calamities and Wonders. A calamity is a devastating spell that thrashes your opponent with the fury of the earth. Wonders are the opposite of calamities; they use nature to build a bolster the druid or his allies.

Lycanthropy
This wonder transforms you and your allies into wolves, increasing movement speed and damage. Its effects are greater when cast at night.

Summer’s Flame

Pets

The druid can coerce the air and earth around them to form into elemental pets that attack your enemies. There are two types of elementals the druid can command: Storm and Earth. Storm Elementals will remain by you until ordered to attack, whereas Earth Elementals will attack opponents blindly until there is nothing left to attack, then is will return to dust.

Summon Earthen Hulk
Summons a powerful earth elemental. This elemental attacks your opponents without command until the end of combat.
