I have a feeling that when writers Simon Rocquette and Louis Porter Jr. of Louis Porter Jr. Design got together, they decided that their feat books would go against the grain of traditional. Undefeatable 8: Druids, is a clear example of not doing what has been done before.
Undefeatable 8: Druids is a short six-page PDF of 31 feats for the druid class, though some can be used by other nature focused characters. As with the previous books in the Undefeatable series, the feats are quite unique. Most druid feats center around the druids Wild Shape ability, so it was incredibly refreshing that only a couple of feats actually do anything with the Druids Wildshape. Instead, the book builds useful feats around the other often ignored qualities of the druid. Readers will notice a lot of focus on fey and fey magic in addition to feats that play a lot with the Druid’s Animal Companion. Many more feats naturally progress the druid to its nature origin, making it feel like a hybrid with a ranger.
For the Player
The Sight feels like a must have feat for a Druid. A single feat that allows the player natural aura detection skills without wasting a spell slot.
For the Dungeon Master
Fey often get ignored in games, despite being the oldest and most powerful type of creatures in most campaigns. A druid flavored campaign utilizing this supplement would benefit greatly from an infusion of Fey.
The Iron Word
Undefeatable 8 maintains the quality of the LPJ Designs brand. The feats mechanically improve and flavorfully infuse the Druid class.
