Wildshape Stats: docs.google.com/spreadsheets/...
0:00 Level 2
4:57 Level 4
6:42 Level 5
6:52 Level 6
9:39 Level 8
10:48 Level 10
Correction: 11:50 I read these damage numbers wrong. 1d8+4 means it rolls an 8 sided die and adds 4 to whatever the result is. So it would really be 5-12 damage.

In case you guys didn't see I made a spreadsheet showing all the stats and put it in the description!😀
edit: I Would also like to apologize for the audio. This was my first video ever recorded/edited. The newer videos should sound a lot better!
thank you very much, but what do you mean by HP max in spreadsheet, how do you get it to max?
I adore how much love and care was poured into the Druid for this game.
Same here. So much versatility!
Only thing I could want from it is more interactions with party NPCs. A.k.a the ability to either scare or help Shadowheart get over her fear of wolves by becoming one, or transforming into a cat and shocking Laz'ael who's never seen one before.
@@Jenna_Talia You can turn into a cat it's just not a battle Wild Shape so he didn't show it.
@@taylorwright194 nah I know, I was just saying it'd be cool if upon turning into one, Lae'zel would react to seeing a cat for the first time.
Lots of love for the bear in particular ;)
Fun fact: Kids chase you around if you're a cat, saying things like "Here kitty! So Cute!" and so on. Fun little flavor interaction.
Gotta love the detail they put into this game!
Something shown, but not stated in the video. Spider form is immune to web spells and effects. So while it may be a little weaker compared to some of the other forms. It has the ability to function amidst web spells without risk or penalty (aside from fire spells roasting you like normal).
True! Thanks for adding that! 😄
there's also the fact that you get the Web spell basically as a normal ability rather than as a Level 2 Concentration spell, allowing you to use it every turn
and as a bonus action no less
But it's also buggy? I started my first Urge run as a druid and, wildshaped into a spider, I got webbed in my own web
@@hazamax2139 Did you cast web on yourself? Because you're not immune to the initial cast. Just the ground effect. Unless you're saying your walked into web and were ensnared. In which case, that's just weird.
why aren't Drow cave druids a thing ?!!!
Arguably the strongest class in actual 5e, because in addition to all of this there’s still your actual character with full spellcasting capabilities behind the Wild Shapes.
I really need to try 5e sometime
In BG 3 its also there behind the wild shapes
In levels 1-4, the Moon Druid is unmatched. However, through 5-13 it really starts to fall off as the Beasts you gain access to don't scale anywhere near as well as straight-up martial characters. Additionally, when wildshaped you can concentrate on spells but not cast new ones. When the Moon Druid reaches 14, it begins to catch up again. Essentially it's a good class - the best there is in early game - but with a BIG valley between its two peaks.
14? I thought there are only 12 levels in game
@@Twisttheawesome well larian reworked druid and I gotta say owlbear is going a lot of dmg (80 prr round on avarage)
Im 30 hours into my sorc playthrough and im HEAVILY considering restarting as a druid holy crap that is cool
haha yeah its so much fun. Probably my favorite class.
You can spend 100 gold to switch classes
I mean you can just change classes and try it out for a bit. Just a little gold
Don't restart, respec :)
@@Zibbit27 you can change the attributes when you reset
Definitely going to play as a Druid for my fist playthrough. So impressed by the sheer amount of skills and build variety they put into this game - and the incredible amount of detail and care put into the animations. Can’t wait to play it.
Hope you enjoy it! My favorite class so far!
Been a blast so far at my 60 hour mark. Avoiding spoilers here, but it seems to have some divergent options worth playing (and more impactful) unlike some earlier titles with character choices (Ex: KoTOR or Dragon Age).
Something not mentioned on the Sabre Toothed Tiger is that their basic bite attack has a chance to knock prone, meaning you don't need to have distance between you and a target to get advantage/additional damage on your jugular strikes.
This might not seem like a big deal but it means you have multiple chances of knocking an enemy prone when you have multiple attacks per turn AND you don't have to awkwardly move out of an enemy's melee range, allowing them to hit you with an opportunity attack, to lay them out.
I thought I heard online that the owl bears crushing flight does more damage the higher off the ground you are, like people have done over a thousand damage and stuff.
that form seems very powerful with its regen as well
The owlbear form carried me through arc 2 and half of arc 3, such epic comebacks with a last minute wild shape.
The owlbear was probably the reason I survived that fight with the devil and his displaced beast 😂
i was already struggling to pick a spellcaster and this just made it even harder
Right? There's almost too much to offer in this game. lol
It can be overwhelming this game is a dream for spellcasters and battle mages plus multiclassing let's you learn from other classes (gotta get that eldritch blast!)
That's when you know you're playing a great game with almost limitless replayabillity
@@Omaha01 And often too little. At the same time. That's the thing about this game. It gets "half right" but then botches the other half somehow (example: Evil is too black and white, recycled past characters, main bad guys with too little screen time. etc).
It's like the game gets "the journey" up to a point but then fails in the end execution somehow. It's a result of the devs being afraid of higher levels. Their own fear is what holds the game back from being more then it already is. Maybe it will change with DLC.
One thing I failed to mention is the Myrmidons all cost 2 wild shape charges instead of 1!
I thought there was no limit to wild shape uses in this game. Did they change that?
@@HouseBug26always has been that way
@@HouseBug26they come back on a short rest so you have like six charges until you need to long rest
So cool...I am used to much much less avaible animal shapes for druids in fantasy games. This is a lot. Also the owlbear looks just like the one in DnD:Honor among Thieves :D
Except meanwhile realized that you can shapeshift only twice between rests, which makes it very-very lame.
@@richardkutsera4992I’d call that being balanced. Druid would be more OP than it already is if we didn’t have that restriction
@@dublethetruble4620 That is how a shapeshifting druid should work, that is how the druid worked even in the DnD movie... Changing form on a whim depending on the situation, like being a cat to sneak, then turning into a mouse to fit into a small hole, ect... being only able to turn once or twice before using a rest is stupid.
@@richardkutsera4992 If there were some sort of restriction on or penalty for resting, I would be inclined to agree, though not necessarily to be unlimited. I think even just doubling it would be sufficient. However, since there are no restrictions to resting, and you aren't penalized in any way for it, why not just take the rest? You can skip right through to your heart's content. Also, it's kinda nice NOT being able to solve every problem simply by shapeshifting. It encourages me to find other ways to accomplish my goals, even to using the skills and abilities of my companions. Which, in my mind, is a major part of the gameplay in BG3.
@@dawnstarplays2798 What do you mean no restriction? You can only use 2 short rest before you need to do full rest, and full rest costs supplies which you can run out of. Pretty big restriction.
loved your explanation I really wanted to know more about the druid, thank you so much❤❤
Thank you for watching!
This is the style of video that I was looking for! All spells, all habilities for a certain class… thank you for your work!!
You're very welcome!
I’m sorry, was no one going to tell me you can turn into a fucking DINOSAUR IN THIS GAME???
Holy shit this is EXACTLY what I've been searching for weeks for!! Thank you dude, good job. 👍
I'ma binge the rest.
Druid is cooler than I thought. Owlbear and Myrmidons look sick.
Thanks! Appreciate it!
wow a video that actually explains the class thank you
You're very welcome!
Excellent video ! Precise and concise.
Thanks! Glad you liked it! Hopefully you enjoy the others!
This is fantastic, I can't wait to level my druid up more now.
Fantastic video! Thanks for the breakdown.
Thanks for checking it out haha
I had so much fun playing as a druid during EA. I went with sorcerer for my first playthrough at launch but once I'm done I'm definitely going back to the druid for my second playthrough.
Great video 👊🏿 helped me pick what class I'm gonna start with
Great video! I just subbed, so I'm looking forward to more content!
Thank you! It means a lot!
Wow man.... I should have started with a Druid lol thanks for the video. Druid is definitely gonna be my next class.
You're welcome! Thanks for checking it out! You're gonna love the druid!
Great video hope to see more! subbed
Thank you! Means a lot!
I heard that there wasn’t gonna be elemental forms and I was sad, but then you post this and I’m so happy
haha good! Hope you liked the video!
even more happy that I chose a Circle of the Moon Druid! Never leaving Dino form
Thanks for the video! Now I definitely want to play a Druid now! I might want switch to that class and try it for myself!
You should it's my favorite! Haha
Thanks for finally explaing wild shape in such an easy to understand way.
Thank you! Happy you liked it!
Great video, I cant believe how much detail they put into this one class. Most games druids only have maybe 3 forms like spider, wolf and bear.
Thank you! Yeah I absolutely love the druid in this game.
That's not necessarily a problem as long as those forms are properly fleshed out. In World of Warcraft you can only become a great cat (lion, tiger or panther depending on race) or bear depending on your chosen specialization but those forms have a kit on par with any other specialization in the game. The problem many RPGs have with shapeshifting is that they just put in some basic forms that don't scale properly, don't have any special abilities going for them and handle equipment merging poorly.
GJ on the video - a lot of effort put in here
Thanks I appreciate it!
I really enjoyed the video! Thank you :)! Looking forward to seeing one for warlock :)!
Coming soon! Glad you liked it!
Today at 12pm PST
Thank you so so much for this video. It was sooo good
You're very welcome! Glad you enjoyed it!😀
Absolutely earned a sub with this video dude, keep up the good work💙
Thank you! I really appreciate it!
@@Omaha01 Well earned dude💙
great video! i don't have the game yet, but i''m probably gonna go druid for my first playthrough. looks cool!
I love the druid. You can always respec if you change your mind!
Great and informative video. They did an amazing job with the options. A Wyvern form would be sick.
That would be sick. Thanks for watching!
@PavelTayTay and yet it is
@PavelTayTaywhats an owlbear if its not a beast? Also what do you think is more fun players? Why would u not to have extra shapeforms lol
@@Morphologicallyyit's not a natural beast. Owlbears are MADE by bored wizards as guard dogs basically. Druid only gets the power to turn into dragons and stuff at lvl 20. The cap lvl. Game stops at lvl 12. Because skills beyond that break the reality of the world around you.
@@DankMcSpankowlbears can be born naturally so I'd say it's fair game
Наконец то кто-то сделал полный обзор на друида! Спасибо тебе большое, друг!😊
Рад что вам понравилось! Спасибо за просмотр!
Thank you so much I tried bard, sorcerer, wizard and 4 elements monk trying to find a class like my Guild wars 2 elementalist. This was a perfect guide to picking your class.
Exactly what i was looking for ty 👌
You're welcome! Thanks for checking it out!
Air myrmidon being able to stunlock up to 3 enemies every turn and with his crazy mobility is just too good, this thing turned the whole act 3 into super easy mode with a druid
8:40 Idk why but the way you said "yeah thats an AOE too" had me cracking up its a crazy strong attack.
lol glad you liked it even though my audio wasn't very good
Ive been having so much fun being a druid, and this helps me immensely 😂
ay well done! this video is amazing!!
Thank you! It means a lot! Appreciate you watching!
This video made me so glad that I made my second character a druid! Thanks! 😎👍🏻
You're welcome! 😀
Man I was so curious of Druid but didn’t know about that health pool thing. That’s convinced me to make a Druid.
Hope you like the druid! Its my favorite class.
This is so much more viable than I realized
This game is damn near legendary status. Amazing product. So amazing
Owlbear's crushing flight (which i believe deals additional damage the further you fall, as well as negating fall damage), and it's attacks innately knocking back, means there's several encounters where you can just punt foes over cliffs with very little fuss...
yeah I made a video where I one-hit the Act 1 boss lol
Too bad they removed crushing flight.
Cool. Thanks for sharing!
You're welcome!
I just built my trickery domain cleric 5/druid 3/sorcerer 4 lolth cleric that can transform into a giant spider. My dream tabletop unit was recreated on this game and I couldn't be happier. This game is beyond amazing.
Feel free to leave some constructive criticism in the comments as this was my first time recording/editing a video!
You really should have shown the wild shape stats for each creature...
@@Meryle25 you're totally right. I'll make a spreadsheet and put it down in the description at least.
@@Omaha01yes, that would be useful. If you do that, thank you.
I need to know their stats so I can see how useful unarmored defense would be for each.
@@ksmith4388 I just finished it but I have to wait for google to verify my ID before I can add links to the description. Says less than 24 hours.
@@Omaha01 Thant would be helpful! Thank you! I can not find that info anywhere else. Not even the wikis!
I do not see it though?
Awesome video. You did miss one of fire myrmidons attacks but you did also hover your mouse over it for a second so we could read it if we paused haha.
Dang I was worried I'd miss something. Appreciate you watching!
@@Omaha01 always nice to get actual info. None of the wikis ever have this info. Would be cool if you showed off the summons that druid can get too 😀 can't wait to be fighting side by side with my summons lol
Was debating between ranger and Druid. Not even a choice now definitely going Druid
haha I don't blame you. Super fun class!
didnt know druids could become elementals :D awesome! I think I found my new elemental summoner build core ^^ ty
Think i might make a moon druid on my next playthrough, looks very cool, honestly got a little bit into it when i tested Halsin in the goblin keep.
Also played druid in early access, but they didn't really have all that much back when i tried it.
yeah I love all the things you can do in and out of combat with it! So many crazy interactions!
you should do a play through , this is too fun to watch
yeah i'm thinking about doing a playthrough where chat votes on all of my decisions once I get some more free time!
You can shapeshift into a dinosaur? Sick!
right? Wish we had a trex lol
The one thing I hate about the owlbears fear is that it affects allies, which makes no sense
Makes sense to me! They wouldn't be expecting it, would they? If I was standing close to that, I'd probably wet my pants, and have a heart scare! Even if it was friendly! 😹💀😹
I couldn’t figure out what class I wanted to do for my first play through once the game comes out. Now I know 😮
Cool idea for a video. Thanks.
Thanks you and you're welcome!
What's funnier is if you get Gale to cast enlarge on you when you are in owlbear form xD
lol true. I think that scales the damage up too since it modifies your strength
Great video, man. Helping my gf decide classes and this won her over faster than anything else
thank you for the video
You're welcome! Thanks for wacthing!
Tell me how I can make my UA-cam videos better! I want to make the best UA-cam videos I possibly can! Also SUBSCRIBE if you want to see more videos like this (but better) :)
Starting a multiplayer with a friend, definitely playing Druid!
I thought about multi-classing eventually. But after seeing what the Druid gets in the later levels, I might just stick with going straight druid with circle of the moon.
One huuuge thing about the aracnid shape you missed about is the web, it break falls. so you can turn to spider, safely jump to lowground, web the ground and now rest of the party can jump down too without taking the fall damage.
And for owlbear it's biggest strenght is the sheer mass it has, 550kg. ~Did you know, the crushing damage on falling scales from both weigh and distance? and that is % boost not just some small flat dmg increase, and these calculates as multiplicitve, so if you get 50% dmg boost from both weigh and distanse, that is 200% bonus damage. from my tests 35 crate tower allowed me +3k dmg on fall damage, and you share that with anything you land on.
Would love a video on all the skills for the land subclass.
Ill get to work on it!
Just got the video uploaded. Check it out!
Just started a Druid for the first time in a group session today. Already love it and I’m only level 4!
Nice that's awesome! Once you get the owlbear it gets even better haha
bruh, they made druid shapeshifting cool in this game
yeah its my favorite class for sure!
damn that sabretooth tiger looks awesome!
Once a druid always a druid
fun fact the owl bears crushing flight does more damage the further you go so the higher you jump from the more damage you will do (same thing applies to throwing a item)
Like the video! Just wondering what do you get at level 11? I know that 12 you just get another feat.
so lvl 11 you'll get a lvl6 spell slot and the spells: Heal, Heroes feast, Sunbeam, Wall of Thorns, and Wind Walk!
Druid look like a solid well rounded class... And pretty safe too since beast form doesn't share health with ur human form... I use rogue/assassin on my current play through... Sometimes it feel way too squishy.
yeah druid is very versatile!
pretty nice. ty man.
You're welcome! Glad you liked it!
I did a test with damage for all the forms at every 2 levels + level 5. The tooltip isn't always correct. Some like the rothe, owlbear, and panther have a damage dice for some of their rolls where you would expect a STR modifier. Others, STR modifiers aren't placed on the tooltip when you hover over it.
My man scrawny bugbear just wanted to have a quick nap and you kept him in a timelooop to be a target dummy for our amusement. You monster!
LOL. I think I need to name him at this point
The Dilophosaurus single-handedly convinced me to play druid.
Haha I know I love it. Wish we got a Trex as well though.
I gotta try Druid on my play through. 😊
you should! It's my favorite so far. You can always respec if you don't end up liking it!
Damn it, I should've made a druid. I'll do that in my next playthrough. Gonna beat the game as my warlock first lol
haha Druid is too fun
I wish the druid can transform into a T-Rex or a gigantic Snake. But The Owlbear is cool.
Yeah a snake would be siiiick
A basilisk would be awesome! I’m here for the snake.
Great video, thanks! You mentioned that the class gets extra unarmed attacks and of course, new forms when leveling up but I do wonder how well this subclass scales? Comparing to others, how does items etc affect wild shapes
That’s a good question. Like what gets transfers over when you wolf shape, but to be fair even if you get past the form your now just a high level spell caster that can have good armor and a shield .
Everything should transfer, same as any race abilities and proficiencys and your mental stats
Honestly itemizatation as of end of Act 2 for druid shapeshifter is pretty bad, the only thing that affects them is elixirs and magical buffs, but none of the items except 1 pretty bad ring affects your shepeshifted form, which feels very weak.
Thanks! I haven't seen any magic items that transfer to the wild shapes so far unfortunately. The class seems to hold its own though!
@@Omaha01 so far i only saw 1 special item for shapeshifters which gives dire raven form and constant featherfall effect for forms, other than that...nothing.
Really really wild
wildin out
@@Omaha01 its wildin time
Oh man, cool and awesome but I thought there could be a displacer beast. But I’m still happy with this
there may or may not be :) just not exclusively for the druid
Amazing, keep it going. I have a question - do feats and magic items work in wild shape? For example the brawler feat.
so magic items don't seem to work but most feats I've tried seem to work. Like Tavern Brawler.
@@Omaha01 thanks, Tavern Brawler's damage part doesn't seem to work for me.
@@Kraykz I think its bugged right now and only applies to the attack roll instead of both the attack and damage rolls like it says.
Great video, could be good to clarify which are unique to moon druid and which are available to all druids.
Great video, too bad Druid’s have some bugs right now.
Just to name a few: After hotfix 2, Owlbear lost its rage ability, it is technically bugged out. Level 6 class ability for Moon Druid’s (the one that makes you hit magical damage against physical resist enemies) doesn’t work. Larian mentioned that you should be automatically turning back to animal after cutscenes or dialogues before release. Now whenever you get into a cutscene or into a dialogue, you lose your transformation completely.
That explains a LOT. I was wondering why some dialogues just flat out took away one of my uses like that. Seems there are pretty detrimental bugs beyond just that though.
And the spider wildshape sometimes gets entangled in its own web.
was looking forward to see Displacer Beast Shape in this video as well. :( I dont put worms inside my character's head, so that's the only one i have not seen yet.
Could you imagine seeings a Druid turn into a honey badger. I’d just give up hope at that point
Yeah that would be terrifying! haha
I am a circle of the moon druid in my dnd campaign and i can confirm being a bear is cool
man, plase make more of those with other classes and subclasses.
That's the plan! I appreciate the comment!
Just an FYI Lunar Mend depends on your subclass. Only circle of the Moon has it
druid is awesome im lvl 11 and at a point which i iiterally shapeshift 3 times plus summon which does another summon into elemntal summon like i have million mobs in battle with this class i god damm luv it XD
Tavern brawler feat stacks with most of the wildshape, so they do more damage and have better attack. Selecting a feat that increase ability like Dex will also stack with with wildshape. 1 dex increase will increase ac of several shape. There's no point of going lv.12 in Druid. I usually dip a level in monk for extra AC when shifting. WIS doesn't change when you shapeshift.
Top teir, good looks
druid is really fun to play as
I know I LOVE it! You tried any other classes yet?
Crushing flights a bonus action holy shit that means it would work with thief!
There is another wild form.
With Illithid Powers, you can take on a Displacer Beast shape.
I have no idea what it is or what it does. But you can do it.
Yeah for this video I was just focusing on the ones exclusively for the druid. Holing to make a video on all of the ithillid powers when I can
@@Omaha01 cool. I look forward to it.
I just wanted to let people know.
now imagine having this AND 2 levels in barbarian!
