I am looking for advice on how i should build my druid. I am heavily focused on self-buff and pet-buff shifted combat. I have Natural Spell so i can cast while shifted so i can buff before battle or at the start. Right now we have access to all 3.5 books with 3.0 on a case by case. I was looking into Planar Shepherd and doing the Ice Plane because its kind of the theme of this druid to be ice magic focused because he is a Silverbrow. My DM hasnt OKed Planar Shepherd yet because its from Ebberon and hes iffy about Ebberon and Faerun. Before i get into my build ideas ill list my set up as of now.
Barbarian 1, Whirling Frenzy instead of rage for +4 Str, +2 AC and Extra attack. Pounce instead of Fast Movement so if i shift to something without pounce i have it and if i shift to something with pounce if i charge i get that +4 to hit
Druid 6, I didnt pick any druid ACFs (If he OKs Planar Shepherd the 6th level of druid is going to be my first level of Planar Shepherd)
Feats (We are using Pathfinder Skills and Feat Progression)
Animal Devotion
Natural Spell
Draconic Aura
Companion Spellbond
Natural Bond (Will be replaced with Greensinger or Nightbringer initiate if Planar is OKed)
Future Feats
Fast Wild Shape
Dragon Wild Shape
Frozen Wild Shape
Swift Wild Shape
Double Draconic Aura
Hopeful Levels
Barbarian 1, Druid 5, Planar Shepherd 10, Master of Many Forms 4 (Just to pick up some extra things to shift into and speak while shifted)
Would this be a bad overall make-up for my character if Planar Shephard is a go?
Part 2, If Planar Shepherd isnt Oked
So if Planar Shepherd isnt OKed, I was looking at something like this
Barbarian 1, Druid 6, Master of Many Forms 7, Druid 4 (To pick up some more spells)
My feats would change because id get Fast Wild Shape for free thru MoMF, Id pick up Assume Supernatural Ability instead for the shifting into Fey and Aberrations i get from MoMF
Im open to all suggestions and help!
