I had struggled with power herald and I ended up mostly using Shiro and Jalis. HoT was brutal to go through in which I was saved often by necros mostly. Then I decided to try condition glint/Mallyx and although a "clunky" build I did noticed an improvement to survivability and damage out put. I have stuck with it since. Anet needs to stop nerfing professions, and instead revamp some skills to give players more options to viable builds. Right now they are really limiting the build possibilities of all professions lately.

Don't bother with a druid for solo open world....or anything. I went down that very long road and became really disappointed. I had a difficult time and killing anything takes too long. The profession explanation is over hyped. You end up heavily relying on your pet and your attacks with staff don't do much damage. Going to celestial was disappointing, the skills are mostly healing and you don't get much extra damage. As well it doesn't last long enough to really be useful. I tried several builds using staff, all had been pathetic. Even the animation of firing a beam from your staff was lame. It would be the same as if you mounted a laser pointer to the end of a broom. While leveling up my druid I ended up always relying on my bow which basically defeats the purpose of using a staff for a build that comes with one. I really wish I went with soulbeast. But for now I'm sticking with core ranger.

Druid really needs to be revamped. The Druid profession from another popular game performs significantly better! Even the priest from that same unmentioned game performs way better as a healing class then what the Druid here does.

I get this as well except for the connection error part. this started 2 days ago and has been ongoing. After 30mins or longer+ I eventually get to log in. This only occurs with this game!

Actually right now I can't even play! I'm stuck at first patch screen and haven't even made it to login.
