The Druid in Diablo 4 is basically all about shapeshifting and calling in buddies to fight for you.

FAQ for Companion Druid Players
Q: How should I be spending my skill points while leveling a Companion Druid?
A: Honestly, early on, put most of your points into your summoning skills. Make sure your companions are strong and can survive fights before you start dabbling in utility or other secondary skills. Basically, a beefy companion > everything else at lower levels.
Q: Any tips for running a Companion Druid in groups?
A: Totally! Your Druid shines in support. Keep your companions buffed and use crowd control abilities like Entangling Roots to help your team control the battlefield. Communication is key—coordinate your summons with your teammates for maximum chaos on enemies. Your pets can really make or break fights if used smartly.
