HI, I play Druid, and was wanting to make a 2nd Char to be his side kick. I was wondering what would make a good combination? Druid and Cleric? or Druid and War? or Druid and Mage? ect. I would like to be able to hunt with just my Druid and my side kick but don't know what would make a good match?

Ok Thanks for the info 8)

Yeah, you're right, but for the first 50 levels that's a viable option. From then on you can have the necro kite while the druid full dots (cause there's no way a druid's getting aggro off of necro dots). Problem solved.

Myself and a friend both leveled into our 50's hunting a druid/cleric combo. I was the cleric and occasionally tanked while he dotted. Fear and snare works very well.

Absolutely correct. I have a friend who is a necro about the same lvl and we work great together.

Druids and bards are AWESOME combo!

Druid has the heals, DSes, DoTs, nukes, evac spells.

Bard can tank, has mana regen song, can do AoE mezzing, etc.


Druid + Bard = Best of both worlds ^^

Recently root rotted with a Necro in Vxed. Necro snared if I couldnt, I rooted, we both dotted and everything died. (Left the summoners alone of course.)

Recently agro kited in NC for a wizzy to nuke. I pissed the mobs off and kept them after me and the wizzy nuked for all he was worth. He wanted to know how I was keeping agro: Flame Lick does wonders.

I have duo'd with SK's and Monks and Warriors, Tanking, while I DPS and healed.

Trio'd with a Wizzy and Pally, (DPS and Heals) and frequently trio with a Cleric and Enchanter (DPS)

I am convinced Necros and Mages are who we work with best, but I think we can duo with just about anyone, depending on where you are hunting, and how you are hunting. Our flexibility allows us to compliment almost anyone.

Bst - the ability to slow would be a great addition. Bst can help out with the kit with pet and dots and then when mob is low bst can step in and tank it.
Also having a bst gives you some chance to do nameds / mobs that summon.

Maybe the best lesson learned from these posts is that druids are great sidekicks to a number of classes .

It really boils down to the fact that if both players know what they are doing, you can still accomplish a lot in Everquest, even when duoing.

I'm a 70 druid, and my friend plays a 70 SK. We have duoed together since before Luclin came out, and always had a blast. The knight doesn't have as much dps as a BL but you make up for that with the ability to Feign pull and the solid tanking ability, which becomes important when you start doing some of the heavier farming/instances.

What do people think about a warrior and druid combo. Is this feasible or no? I've been power leveling one up since I came back into game since the warrior was already level 25. (I'm a 52 druid) Will this be a plausible group later?

riverwinter had it right! flamelick for supreme aggro... an id suggest a necro aswell. an not to put anyone off. but i did up a druid to 65, an got bored at his lame ***. not the best dotter,healer... an rolled a shaman an loved em a heck of alot more. also if yer making a druid choices are halfling for tailoring bags.... or pick a tunare worshipper for a root necklace.

but id say for a duo your going to be hurting for mobbs to run through i think after round 50 with just about anyone. but a necro would make a sick kiting partner. an atleast he can slow undead. an when u see a named...just think about how u shoulda made a shaman. =)

lol, what i found funny was --

Bard can tank, has mana regen song, can do AoE mezzing, etc

haha, bard tank, good one.
