It took me a while to figure out that the Warden is essentially all the defendery bits of the old 3.5 druid. I like the fact that the druid has been split into the weather/nature controller and the shapeshifter. However, I am worried the primal classes will be too alike in fluff; I could think of a hell of a lot more character concepts for a paladin than I can for the warden, druid, and shaman combined.

Dude... you said that in the last thread (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?t=101385). :smalltongue:

Well, except for the 'I'm afraid they'll be too much alike' bit. I think that's always been the curse of Druid/Spirit Shaman characters though.

Don't forget that Barbs are primal too.

Thanks to a certain show I've been watching lately, I now associate "Warden" with "Gap-toothed guy in a purple suit and yellow glasses." :smalltongue:

That said, it looks interesting...

At first glance, it appears to play similar to a Swordmage.

You are sturdy and resilient, and you can assume bestial or treelike forms to destroy your foes.
Druid: *scratch scratch scratch*
Warden: I AM NOT A SCRATCHING POST DAMMIT!

Okay, now I really want to do something with the Wonder Twins. In that vein, I hope that the Warden gets plenty of ice and water-based dailies.

Like what? Hmm... a Blackwater form? Something to do with storms? Something to do with actual water, like a river or something?
