For the purpose of this article, let’s assume you have 5 spells and we’ll walk through some great choices.įor your starting cantrips, I recommend Shillelagh and Thorn Whip. Wisdom -> Dexterity (max 15) -> Constitution -> Charisma (trust me) -> Intelligence -> Strength SPELLSĪt level 1, a Druid knows 2 cantrips and a number of level 1 spells equal to their level (1) + their Wisdom modifier. This gives you more hit points every time you level and makes it harder for your character to die. Finally, constitution should be one of your higher stats. As you are able to wear medium armour, you want to make sure you are maxing your AC (how hard it is for creatures to hit you in combat) at a +2, which means giving it a 14 or 15, if you have it available. When you have your numbers, it’s important to prioritize your statistics to get the most out of them. First, take the highest statistic and use it for your Wisdom score. Work with your DM to ensure you are generating your statistics the same as the rest of your group and whatever method chosen, you will generate 6 different numbers 1 for each attribute. Statistics in D&D represent how your character interacts with the world and what they can (and cannot) accomplish. Unlike wizards, druids can learn healing spells, can wear up to medium armour, carry a shield and even have some pretty cool weapon proficiencies (despite the fact they will not wear armour or use shields that are made of metal). What do druids get? All of their magic is focused on nature and life. They have the same amount and breakdown of spell slots as a Wizard does, with the only exception being that wizards learn one additional cantrip and have a much larger pool of spells to choose. Don’t let the armour fool you!Īt their core, Druids are nature wizards.

I would rather you choose the Druid with a full understanding of what that means, and not expect to have some crazy forest ninja who leads from the front (those are Rangers) like I did the first time I played. LET’S GET STARTED!īefore jumping into the meat, I want to take a moment to describe what a Druid in D&D actually is. This article is going to focus on filling in your stat sheet and deciding what spells you should take, instead of your backstory (which is REALLY important). Just like last time, we suggest you check out great tips for new RPG players to help setup your character and those articles are a great place to start as they will help you get the most out of your new roleplay experience and get you thinking about your back story and how you want your Druid to play.
We’ve already looked at starting Wizards, so today we’re going to talk about Druids.
