With reduced player numbers there are far fewer druids in the cabal. Could the tree get a mob that could change metal things into wood for a cost please?

I kind of think that's the risk you take if you make a character that really really wants more wood stuff.

But seriously, that would be cool. I can't think of what that "cost" would be though-- maybe a skin from a tribunal or Imperial? ;)

That there are mobs of certain classes that do what players would do or grant things to players. I know there is already one such mob in place and it has an associated cost. Would be nice to see bards in inns that do requests so you can get anthem or bagatelle or something. Druids to turn things to wood would just be another sort of thing that might be useful. Of course the one mob like that is not suitable for talking about, but there could be others like that one that do different things already and we just might not know about them. But if there aren't, it's not an all together bad idea so long as it is limited to prevent abuse.

In order for the druid to transmute metal you'd have to walk a long long way for an item that he needed. Make it so airshifters can't just fly to it I guess.
