Any help is appreciated, thanks!

The dire tortise from sandstorm is actually pretty amazing. one of its racial abilities is to always go first in combat. And you get to act during suprise rounds. Round 1 your one of these. nuke. round two, turn into bird.

Once you get elemental wildshape, turn into an earth elemental and sit below combat,doing the same as above.

Or air elemental instead of bird.

Entangle is a great spell if you are large size and can fly. sit outside their reach and pound them, while they cant run away or hit back.

02-25-07, 06:49 PM IMC, the party druid is doing very well getting very powerful animal companions, and playing ranged support while her animal companion tears up (litterally) the opposition.

The party druid also got the feat that allows them to cast while wild-shaped, so now they can fly and summon things on the ground, or even more fun stuff.
