{{Druid Skills}}The [[Druid]]'s summoning skills allow him to call up wild animals to fight for his cause. He also has two aura-like enhancements, and several interesting living vine skills in this tree.

Long ago, the Druids confided in prayer their sacred charge to the supreme spirits of Nature. The spirits were moved by their plight and answered the Druids' call for help. Over the many years since then, the spirits have contributed in many ways to the Druids' cause, even offering up soldiers to serve in their campaign. A Druid educated in the language of the Natural spirits can appeal to them, and they will provide him with valuable companions. These companions fall into three groups: spirit animals, sentient vines, and minor spirits of Nature.

'''Spirits'''<br>
Only one Spirit spell may be active at a time. If you summon another Spirit the previous Spirit will disappear. Spirits have hit points and can be destroyed. Spirits are similar to Paladin Auras. Both of the Spirit Auras can be active on party members at the same time, but the same one will not stack, so Druids should decide in advance who will cast which.

Spirits are immune to Physical Damage and Poison on Nightmare. In Hell Difficulty, they're immune to Poison.

'''Summoned Minions'''<br>
Druids may summon [[Raven]]s, [[Summon Spirit Wolf|Spirit Wolves]], [[Summon Dire Wolf|Dire Wolves]], and [[Summon Grizzly|Grizzly Bears]]. Ravens are optional, but only one type of the wolf or bear minions can be present at a time. For example, casting a Grizzly Bear will dispel previously cast wolves, and vice versa. In earlier versions of D2X, there was no reason to put more than one point into a wolf or bear summoning skill if you didn't intend to use that one constantly. Now, with synergies, multiple points in all three skills can be valuable.

'''Vines'''<br />
Vines follow you around much like any other Minion. They can be attacked and can die. You can only have one Vine at a time. If you want your Vines to survive longer, spend more skill points to build up their maximum life.
