Most of their higher level spells seem to have a heavy focus on Divination...but I've never found a use for Divination spells. I find Druids are far better at things like Battlefield control, transportation, ect.
Edit: Now, once I reach level 17 I suspect I'll have more fun...but that's only going to be because of Wish. I'm an Arcana cleric, and using Wish to instantly make a Simulacrum, then wait a day to cast it again for an instant, free Planar Binding is gonna be great. But I could do the same thing as a Wizard...
