Int is only for mages.  Wis affects spells for druids.
 
Either a halfing or elf would be good for a druid.  Elves stormwrath for more and such, while halflings have a higher dex.  It's really a matter of preference.
 
I personally prefer elves for their very sexiness. ^.~  Although the charisma only affect how much it is healed for and a druid's heal basically sux anyway.

Elves are the best druids. Halflings cant even be compared to them. They have much more mana and +2 wiz (perf stat halfling and elf). And why should they get +2 dex if they got armor spells? It's useful, but not as much as wisdom.
 
Elf. Trust me, I got four elven druids.

Human druids rock the best, man. You get +1 strength, +1 consitution, -1 wisdom compaired to a perfect stat elf, -2 dex to halflings. My druid is 19 [17] 19 18 19 [8]. It was my second crit of the entire game, so it isn't too bad. I do have a few 19 x 19 19 19 19's, though. *cries because his PC is still broken*
 
But the elves are good as well. -nods-

None of those is overall 'better' than the other. It all comes down to personal preference.  
 
They are better than eachother in some ways and also worse than eachother in some ways. So its your choice in the end.

Human druids will probably own once the attribute points are put in the game.

I think Halfling druids are worse than Human druids. The dex bonus just isn't good enough (for druid). The racial armor bonus... The more wisdom you got, the more effective armor spells get... So basically the armor halflings get isn't important, elves get basically the same bonus armor in spells. Druids need a lot of mana, because they depend a lot on their spells / abilities.  
 
Now lets compare Human to Elf. Elf has +2 char, that means he heals more. And he also has +1 wisdom, that means he gets more mana and most of his spells are more effective. +Damage in Forests is great. If you inflict 60 damage it gets boosted by 3 while in a forest. That means, when you fight a Black Bear and inflict 60 damage, you get 150 extra xp per hit.  
 
Humans get +1 strenght and +1 constitution. The heal is worse (but it's not a main spell...) and all his spells are worse. But his fighting skills are better. A bit more hp, and a bit more damage. I think the racial bonus for elves increases damage as well, so it's not that important. The hp is quite important, but elves have improved armor spells (not much but a bit) and more mana, and that means they take less damage. Human's racial bonus isn't relevant at the momment.  
 
I personally prefer Elves. They are better than the others (my opinion).
 
I took this from Discussion. (Yes I did post this)

Hehe if you look at the times of his posts it took him about a minute and a half to think of the word "gnome".  Grin
And Vdeity, if you messed up you could always go back and modify instead of posting again. Roll Eyes
 
Anywayz, I don't think gnomes make good druids.  If you truthfully do maybe some explanation would be nice of why you believe so.

Hmm I think gnomes would rock as druids. In my opinion a druid needs nice wisdom and dex as key stats – gnomes have this. Sure 17 strength is a touch low but hey, you and I both know druids can still whip you with that (/beg Vampyre Cry). The wisdom is higher than a halflings so you are going to get more base armour from spells (ignoring race bonus) and hit for more on offensive spells, plus you get the magic resistance bonus. Of course it’s all down to personal preference again but I would use a gnome druid if the option were available Tongue.

Hehe phear my 17str and 19wis!!!  Tongue  If dwarves could be druids that would own in morph.  And I guess if there could be gnome druids it'd be good against resisting mages...
