So if a Class would get a Feat at Level 5, they may get it at Level 3 in BG3 to make up for the missing 7 Levels. There's Mods to increase the Max Level to 20, but they usually either give you nothing much for levels 14-20 OR they change stuff back to 5e rules so you get stuff later.

    I'll bite on the druid armor restriction. Going by the companion rules on the BECMI line of D&D, which was simultaneous with the AD&D editions had the beliefs of the druid written down where they could not use any material that had not at one point been "alive", so leather and wood were acceptable but metal and stone which had never been "alive" were despised by druids and thus not used. Important to note here is that the druids were limited in both armor and weapons to wood and leather so it kept the limitation consistent. This is from the 1984 Dungeons & Dragons Players Companion: Book one by Frank Mentzer, page 14

    Pathfinder 2e (which evolved from Pathfinder 1E which is basically just D&D 3.5) does the different armor materials and types. Solid example, both me and the other fighter have heavy armor and get bulwark which allows us to get a buff to reflex saves against spells but my O-Yoroi also has laminar which allows it to fall apart in stages instead of all at once meaning it lasts longer. I think 5E also has some homebrew supplementals that add more option but they're usually expensive (in game I mean) and then there's things like adamant and mithril

    Druid might be the most slept on class in Bg3 just because of Conjure Woodland Being. The dryad gets *free* casts of spike growth, resistance to magic, has an aura of freedom of movement for the entire party and the aura also gives poison resistance(for what its worth), AND can summon a wood woad for free Entangle *and* tanking when its on an entangled surface. Also means that a single druid can have two casts of spike growth *and* a cast of entangle up at once. My Spore druid usually had four pets behind it, a regular zombie, a spore zombie, a dryad and a wood woad. At level 10 he added an elemental to his retinue when needed. But at least they didn't do Druids dirty like they did Warlocks, where one mob has the undead patron subclass, but you as a player don't get to use it.

    I mean as far as main character goes You really want the main character to have at least one of Int or Cha, you don't really have any high value skills in Druid, wildshape breaks certain social encounters, ect. But you CAN transform into a cat to get inside all those little holes! Alone. Hope you have a plan. And a lot of people seem to act like reclassing isn't in the game for some reason, so you're stuck with Halsin or Jaheira which are later and require specific routing.

    Circle of the Land druids can choose any land's spells whenever they get higher spell slots, instead of being stuck with one land circle's spells throughout their career. All druid's animal forms have a lot of utility options added (Like the saber-toothed tiger that can reduce enemy AC and passively regenerates hit points). The owl bear form.

    This right here. Being able to select the two spells you always have prepared (or which spells you don’t normally get as a druid) vs. making a decision early on and then having whatever spells come with that land category gives a lot more options for players.

    Basically BG3 druids learned to be owlbears and then learn to brawl in a tavern, which makes Circle of Moon tremendously stronger. Also some people might have invented the Owlbear Slam to make the strongest attack in game.

    So, the thing about druids not being able to use metal is very mythologically simple: Fairies in myth are burned by metal, and Druids are connected to primordial nature like fey. Thus, their powers are also negated by metal weapons and armor. Should be metal generally, really, to be fair.

    I also think it has to do with the way it is gathered. If your whole purpose is the be a conduit and protector for nature, you can always make a dagger out of bone or chipped rock, or take the branch from a fallen tree as a staff, or use leather taken from an animal they killed as a part of the circle of life. Metals on the other hand requires mining, which is super invasive to nature.

    Well, for my 2 copper pieces to throw into the *metal druid armor* ring. 1) while metal can be found in nature, the processes necessary to collect, refine, and forge the armor can be seen as distinctly harmful to nature, more so than killing an animal for its pelt to make leather. 2) I recall a video doing a deep dive on the lore of the forgotten realms, one talking about the elves' connection to the weave, and it mentioned that elves were uniquely sensitive to the weave, and that wearing metal armor would cut them off from the weave, at least in the areas covered. So spell casters that rely on the weave to cast their spells might be affected in a way that casters like clerics and warlocks (whom get their spells from their relationship with an external power) might not be. In summary, metal armor might be too harmful to the environment and could possibly do something weird with a druid's magic, so they don't bother.

    Druids in bg3 are broken in the absolute best of ways. Owlbear shenanigans aside, there's the myrmidon shapeshift. Air myrmidons get an unlimited duration invisibility, which combined with fly and warp is just too much fun. Then there's the concentration that was removed from summons, letting you have another myrmidon, a dryad who can then summon a wood woad, and 2 mephits or an Azer. All of which you get to keep if you decide to shapeshift. Or, you can use them as a wall while you cast a max level Moonbeam. Or pair up a wall or fire with your dryad's free casts of spike growth to make an endless hallway of pain, death, and more pain for those fights you really, really hate. Or, just forget that this was supposed to be a strategy focused game, grab 3 or 4 druids, and summon an unstoppable army, which gets healed multiple times every round because water myrmidons. Druids are unstoppable. :D

    My mentality with metal equipment is the following for Druids: 1. Manmade material. By that I mean to make a fur coat or leather armor, you can realistically make it in a stone age esk setting. While metals require there to be a lot more advanced techniques in order to make (IE can it be made in a low tech town). The second idea of metal equipment is more of a folk tale origin. To be blunt, Fae in fiction tend to have a similar role to Druids (guardians of nature and all that), so they had a weakness to manmade things. There are 2 main weaknesses known, which is poisons and... iron. To be specific, a Fae touching iron was similar to a Vampire touching silver.
