If jedi complain about how underpowered their class is and still get buffs in every single patch (When they don't even need it) then sure they are very much alike.

Are you kidding? Druids were so underpowered compared to the other classes and it still suffers problems that other classes do not. It can get down right frustrating when it comes to itemization.
Like what? Moonfire not being able to be spamable enough or that it doesn't deal enough damage? Good work in hiding a buff druids refference in your comment. I've actually seen GOOD druids back when they were "Underpowered" They completely owned. What you don't seem to realize is that they are and always have been about timing. All classes can win in combat and PvE... just cause someone doesn't know how to play them doesn't mean they are underpowered.. Its their fault and nobody elses.... Now I'd like to know what kind of problems they face. You mean... Like how mages spells still don't fire all the time and still waste mana? Or that Arcane Power is still a little buggy and has a high chance of wasting mana. Or the fact that hunters always have the advantage over a rogue that vanishes and they pet still chases after them and knocks them out of stealth? Or how engenieers get screwed over by some of their devices not working not because they backfired or anything like that. It just wasn't programed. So please... Tell me that the druid needs fixing over these things first. Cause I know my druid guildmates never complained about a damn thing that druids were underpowered or that they are gliched in some way. You know.. I'm pretty sure thats why they were in the guild in the frist place.. Didn't complain and was good at what they did.

I havent played all classes, just most of them (at least to level 20-25, some as far as 50) and I find all classes well balanced and with a purpose. I also found druids to be a very fun class to play. Not easy nor hard. THey do their job, and if yer good, u do a good job and you are happy about it, and if u arent good, u do a terrible job, you arent happy about it and thus you come here and complain. Thats natural and thats understandable. Not everyone has the same level of skills.

well, let's see:
Druid moonfire now has a 1 second cooldown like all other instant, so no more moonfire spams. Moonfire was never a problem actually and it has not been touched at all.
Druid's cat form was a joke, nobody was using it because the damage of the "damage dealer" form was LOWER than the "tank" form. So you got less armor, less damage and less hit points. wow. nice not be able to use a good third of all my powers eh?
The offensive talent tree was completely useless. there was NO offensive specced druid at all. most were restoration (the best tree) and some were feral (that was a sub par tree by any account).
Sure, there were druids able to play the game. a Restoration specced druid was no problem at all, but a druid is supposed to have a wide selection of powers and be able to use them all. Druid is not supposed to be a priest in leather. So that's why druids were complaining and that's why changes have been made.
Fact some druid players were not whining do not means the class didn't need those changes. Now is a much better all-rounded class.

I personaly love cat form. You say it doesnt compare to the DPS monsters like rogue or mage, its NOT supposed to. Druid is NOT a DPS character. Druid is jack of all trades, they arent best at anything but OK at everything. They can Tank OK, heal OK, damage OK.
