Hyrax 01-31-08, 01:37 PM	I'm new to druids and wondering what benefits there are to either Animal or Elemental companions? Can either be used as mounts? What are some of the better choices for either? My character is 1/2 ogre barb 2/druid 4/stormlord 5 and stormlords get a feat where they can ride the storm as though they were using the fly spell... and there mount can ride it too which I'd like to be able to use anyways any tips would be greatly appreciated

I pesonally wouldn't ride a Fire Elemental. I'm unsure if I would drown in a Water Elemental. Earth Elemental would be great, except when they glide through earth. Air Elemental sounds like the safer of them.
