Seascarred Druid for a Pirate Campaign

[MehWhyNot]

Seems like the Skulls and Shackles forum is pretty dead, so I'll ask here.

I'm planning a wereshark-kin druid in an upcoming campaign, and I just can't settle on an archetype or domain. So, I want your help/opinions (no spoilers, please!)

I'm thinking either a Storm Druid with the Weather domain or a World Walker Druid with the Monkey Domain (but I'm open to suggestions). Both seem piratey enough, but I just can't settle on which I like more.

World Walker is slightly better. Not much else to say really, depend which one you prefer but might as well take advantage of favored terrain Water, where you will have a constant bonus.

Thanks. Any opinion on a domain?

Oceans subdomain is actually pretty good, it also give you a CMB wave, so you can push people into the sea, great crowd control on a ship/boat.

But well, just play whatever you think is more fun, at the end of the day.

Hmm, what's the range on the Oceans ability? It seems unlimited...

Bump

Range seems to be unlimited indeed but well...since its a check against a CMD, even if you hit someone far away, you still have to move them by beating the CMD, so guess that's the only balance.

Probably to make it more reasonable, if I were a dm for it, would make it 30 ft like most domain powers.

Maybe I need to rethink this a little.

What would you guys build? Wereshark-kin druid pirate. What would you make it into?

[Eltacolibre]

frankly would just go for a menhir savant druid...because it is simple, convenient and useful in most situations. With wild shape serving as support for everything else, as a wereshark-kin, I don't need to worry about swimming or drowning, when I get wild shape, can even just take the form of a shark for the theme. I'll still use an aquatic related domain, like Oceans...and that's all.

I considered Menhir Savant, but it's just so out of place in a pirate campaign.
