I'm looking over the Green Faith Acolyte and it kinda sucks. Please correct me if I'm wrong because it's a very flavorful PRC. It appears as though you're basically gimping your druid abilities for some very sub par powers. Am I missing something?
It's pretty bad. In return for taking a mediocre feat and needing Shaping Focus and Boon Companion to be the equal of a regular Druid, you get:
*Hibernate, which nobody cares about.
*Power Over Nature, which is petty change by the level you get it.
*Animal Covenant, which is...actually pretty nice.
*Blighter of Abominations, which....modifies your blasting spells against certain targets.
And at levels 8-10, you get "flavorful" b%*@%*!* lifted from AD&D forcing the GM to accomodate your special snowflake needs.
So, for a dedicated blaster Druid, who took a Domain instead of a Companion, and stays in Eagle form to cast rather than fight, the class is actually OK. But that's a terrible waste of a Druid.

You just confirmed my opinion. Thank you. :-)
I suppose you could be a standard druid and just call yourself a green faith acolyte.
