I was playing a druid in 5e around when it came out to show some new players what they were like. After winning the team some encounters, I said "You're welcome," which lead to one the players putting on Maoi's song, and I was like "Whoever this is, they are a druid."
someday i'll make an urban druid. some kind of dumpster/sewer person who uses the power of rats, stray cats, potted plants, and other lifeforms you'd find in the slums of a city in order to defeat their foes and protect the very fragile urban ecosystem.
3.5e had this thing for steampunk campaigns, it also removed the "no metal" restriction under the condition you can't buy anything, anything you wear must be found on a corpse or in a dumpster
There's actually a DnD show called Dimension 20 (specifically, The Unsleeping City) where a player does something similar. Basically, he's playing a rat man named Kugrash, who weaponizes sewer stuff to do druid magic (his Flaming Sphere is a ball of burning trash, he uses spirit totems of cockroaches and pigeons, most of his wild shapes look like they escaped from a zoo, etc). I'd recommend watching it, cause it's a good series and the whole thing is on youtube for free
Want to really make your DM sweat? Multiclass into even just *one* level of Monk and crank that Wis. Congratulations, you can turn into a Dire Wolf that does Kung Fu and has an AC of upwards of 18, depending on stat rolls....at level 3. If you really want to drive them nuts, go at least 8 levels in Druid for flying forms, and go far enough into Monk for Way of the Sun Soul, and become that Martial Artist Pterosaur that shoots laser beams out of it's eyes that every DM fears.
MC Mosfet the WIS to AC that monks get don't stack with the animals' natural AC, so you're not just getting an 18 AC that easily. It still has to be 10+DEX+WIS (using the animals' DEX), so unless you have max WIS and the beast has at least +3 DEX, you're not getting 18 AC.
My paladin( Graphi) once was gifted a Roc from his god as a mount while we were playing through kingmaker (yes i know thats pathfinder shush) we got a quest for "go fetch an egg from this Roc" from a chef wanting to turn it into a massive omelette our druid, Valkani, infinite in his wisdom; shape-changed into a Roc and mated with my bird while i was asleep. Graphi never knew where they got the egg from.
@@MagicalMedic Valkani was amazing. Enemy lord hiding in their castle? Summon a tornado on it. Lich behind a rock wall? Turn into an earth elemental and consume the wall.

...not really. Druids will just wreck your shit, no questions asked. Seriously, they are the only class that's even close to Cleric levels of OP. They are just so wildly underutilized that people don't realize it. When a druid Wild Shapes, they add the hit points of the creature they turn into to their max HP. While the don't have the same damage output as most casters, they can pretty much outlast anything. Add to that most of their spells lock down enemies or increase their defense, and you're in for a really bad time. TL:DR: Druids kick ass, but are underutilized.

Out of all the other videos that talk about Druids, I think you're one of the few that actually brings up the significance of wild shaping + spellcasting combined and I got to give you kudos for that.
This is amazing, I love your delivery and drawings! Not only creative and funny but very informative and sure to tempt anyone avoiding druidhood to join our cult I mean cult I mean... Ok I think I have a thing for druids
Sticks to Snakes actually is a druid spell. In every edition it has shown up in (Original D&D and AD&D), it has been both a druid and a cleric spell. In Original D&D it was added to the druid spell list in Supplement 3: Eldritch Wizardry. Here’s an article on the spell: dungeonsdragons.fandom.com/wiki/Sticks_to_snakes
In one of my druid playthroughs, I would role a percentage die whenever I wild shaped to determine if I would keep control or if the animal mind took over.
Wouldn't it depend on the tree? Like most plants, trees are usually hermaphroditic but in some species individual trees are entirely male or female (e.g. holly trees).

Same, but silently
same, my wife plays a Druid in our campaign and she has been patiently waiting for this one
We all did...
I'm early like the rogue who scouts ahead and triggers a trap.
The monotone "They'll never see it coming" is just high class comedy.
0:41 Has anyone tried to play a "druid" that's just a guy with extremely high disguise and bluff abilities in a dozen fursuits?
Pls if someone did it tell us your story
1:16 too bad, I already post it on tumblr
Good luck keeping it there with tumblers anti NSFW campaign making the AI hit everything even mildly related to furrys
@@rainlawrence8663 AS IT SHOULD BE.
@@AWizardsKiss. Ikr
Why should it become obsolete?
(No nsfw joke and comment how the internet is for porn)
@@Ezekiel_Kleyer the only thing tumbler did better than its competitors was the whole NSFW/furry thing, with that gone only the sjws are left on tumbler. The sjw population is to small to support a system of that size, it will collapse.
1:51 is that an "Actual Cannibal Shia Labeouf" reference I see
Signious
Yes, yes it is.
"Exit, pursued by a [magical] bear"
- the druid's enemies
I love how you were gonna kill Yogi with the same method of slaying sleeping monsters
"sticks to snakes is not a 5e spell, nor is it for druids"
I'm adding that to things Wizards needs to bring back, right next to my precious shocker lizards
(okay but seriously shocker lizards were epic and I want them back with the ability to get one as a pet if you're a storm sorcerer because it's just perfect)
They were cool
1:51 Was that a Rob Cantor reference?
It had to be, and I was honestly hoping to see some shia lebouf reference in the background
SHIA LABEOUF

King of the wigglers you say, tell me more...
What are wigglers?
@@nullpoint3346 his head. It's from monster hunter world.
Me: Watches the vid.
At the start of the vid: “You never see it coming”
Me: Visible signs of pain as take over plays.
Oh god, I had it in loop for 20 hours now help
Out of all the other videos that talk about Druids, I think you're one of the few that actually brings up the significance of wild shaping + spellcasting combined and I got to give you kudos for that.
I would holeheartedly support you in a violent over through of the wiggler queen
I love it when there is a new mini on the table, it’s very Zen.
This is amazing, I love your delivery and drawings! Not only creative and funny but very informative and sure to tempt anyone avoiding druidhood to join our cult
I mean cult
I mean... Ok I think I have a thing for druids
Sticks to Snakes actually is a druid spell. In every edition it has shown up in (Original D&D and AD&D), it has been both a druid and a cleric spell. In Original D&D it was added to the druid spell list in Supplement 3: Eldritch Wizardry.
Here’s an article on the spell: dungeonsdragons.fandom.com/wiki/Sticks_to_snakes
I look forward to the day when all of the little figurines appear on the table.
Burst out laughing at the don't steal
I’m subscribing because of this series
"DON'T STEAL"
*falls out of chair*
In one of my druid playthroughs, I would role a percentage die whenever I wild shaped to determine if I would keep control or if the animal mind took over.
Das a _cool_ idea.
>says oxygen
>shows H2O
Truly the pinnacle of science
OMG HE MADE THE DRYAD MALE INSTEAD OF THE STEREOTYPICAL FEMALE!!! IM IN LOVE
*Matt Mercer would like to know your location*
I thought it was a female at first lmao
Malfurion gives you his regards.
Wouldn't it depend on the tree? Like most plants, trees are usually hermaphroditic but in some species individual trees are entirely male or female (e.g. holly trees).
@@Stratelier male or female they all experience morning wood
Yeah but can you kill Shia Labeouf as a druid?
Maybe on a normal Tuesday night if you find him sharpening his axe in his cabin in the forest.
as long as you survive his shiasurprise
Have to be a Monk, so you can do Jujitsu, bodyslam superstar Shia LaBeauf.
There's a simple and effective way to defeat Shia Lebeouf as a Druid. *deep breath* SHILLELAGH!
Or perhaps a Rogue.
*Quiet*
*Quiet*
That Persona 5 reference is perfect and got the soundtrack stuck in my head again.
I love your wiggler art. And pairing out with joker made it better.
0:12 I see you, sneaky Dodo.
Hey! That guy's not a guy, he's just a bear!
We're so sorry. Sir Bearington, very sorry for this mans behavior.
@@Lucky13524 ROAR *shrug*
Nicely done, can’t wait to see how he handles the fighter.
Same I'm waiting so patiently
Personally I'm waiting for paladin
@@spicydragon301 Part of the reason I like the fighter so much is because it's so versatile in what it can do, front line tank, archer sniper, some support, and even minor magic stuff. Granted no one fighter can achieve all that but the possibilities are there.
@@n00bmanQ I said on his cleric video that I personally like the fighter for similar reasons as the ones you have listed I even compared the fighter to a bard with less singing and magic but more weapon fighting.
Damn, NOW I understand the "They never see it coming"- reference. P5 ♥️
you know its funny me and my group of friends decided to play D&D for the first time. im so happy you posted these videos they may be short but they do help with a general outline of the classes which is invaluable to a little noob like me. bless you sweet child
Bracing down for furry jokes.
King of the wigglers... My god.
Dance now I'm probably going to go with this class next character sheet so I can get that sweet sweet edge
Me: *is my turn in combat*
Friend: *tells me to do something specific*
Me: *was already gonna do that specific thing*
Me: *does it*
Friend: *feels smug thinking that it was his idea first and I listened to him*
That was my freaking mom when I decided to do Spanish class back in high school.
Hey JoCat, I love all of your content, you definitely don't diverse all the abuse that came your way. Thank you for everything that you have done, and I hope that whatever you do next brings you joy and happiness. Stay strong 👍
I always come back and watch some of these before I play. 😂 the style always kills me and makes me laugh. I wish we could have a few more of these every once in a great while.
This is actually how I got into DND. Watching these short little videos went a long way for helping me learn when I was brand new to dnd and got invited to play.
Now watching them again is always nostalgic. And I notice more about just how accurate these are 😂
Fucking amazing style unique to this channel. Feels waaay less nerd and waaay more power in a goofy fun way. (As a former sports fanatic, this helped me engage with a new type of nerdy thing I had never had any intentions to be a part of originally)
Love this content. Lots of love to the creator. ❤ thank you for making these so long ago.
1:01 is that an Age of Mythology soundbite i hear?
As always great work Jo :)
"It's not like it provides oxygen."
*shows H2O*
00:03, okay, apparently we breathe water now? Since when was I a fish?
Shhhhh you always were
2:05 might be my favorite shot of all your D&D videos.
I reference this playlist whenever i make a new character, very useful as a dm with newbies, thank you so much jocat
"Extremely convincing fursuits" lol
I roll to disbelieve! D= *mauled*
Ain’t gonna lie, I’d go Druid for that dryad too
