📋 About This Mod
Playable Druid Class
By popular demand I have now added the ability to play the Druid class to BG3.
Implementation Notes
Two Circles are available: Land and Moon
I could not find a way to detect if the character was wearing metal armor specifically, so that restriction is not applied to any abilities.
When exiting wild shape, you are supposed to revert to what HP you had when you started. So far, I cannot figure out how to do this, so instead you heal to full HP.
Some spells for the various land circles had to be changed since they are not implemented.
Mountain Land circle was removed entirely because both spells it granted are not implemented.
You can currently wildshape into Rat, Wolf, Boar, Bear, Giant Spider, and Dire Wolf. There are some definite quirks with Wildshape, and I've seen the character get "stuck" in wildshape and unable to take actions correctly. Your mileage may vary.
Now with special Druid tadpole power! Wildshape: Bulette! Let's you crash around as that clumsy behemoth of the underdark for a few rounds.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Solid community support with 201 endorsements and nearly 7k downloads.
- Shape-shifting is a fun and unique mechanic that stands out.
- Updated to support Patch 3, so it should work with that version.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2020, so it may not be compatible with newer game patches.
- Small mod with limited scope—just the class, no extra content.
For players who want to experience the game as a druid with shape-shifting powers. If you're into fantasy classes and want something different from the base options, this is for you. Skip if you're looking for a fully fleshed-out class with extensive skill trees or if you're on a newer game version.
