I'm thinking that in addition to the standard and bonus languages my forest gnome knows (Common, Gnome, Elven, Sylvan, forest animal, Druidic, Goblin), a druid should learn others relating to giving instructions to SNA creatures.
Since elementals are a big part of that list, and kind of useful for things other than "attack!" (scout underground, set that on fire, retrieve a sword that fell overboard a ship, etc.), it might be useful to learn a few elemental languages.
So I'm considering dumping skill points into learning Terran and Aquan, and eventually Auran and Ignan later on.
Is this worth it?
If so, which elementals are most useful to be able to clearly direct at lower levels?
Are there other easier ways to do this, that don't involve sinking skill points into out-of-class skills?
Saving up to pay a wizard to cast a permanent Tongues spell on me, perhaps? Hey... would that enable me to speak with party members while in wildshape form, too? That might be better....
Edit: Bother. Tongues can only be made permanent on yourself, and Druids can't cast that spell.
