I have no idea if it's actually fixed yet, was hoping you and Kaboom could give it at least a brief SAN check once-over. Heh, I think it's better but I'm one bish.
I’m not really what anyone would consider “proficient” with Druids, having never played one. Ever. (And I’ve been playing since 2e.) So I’m not sure I’m the best person to review it for you. 🤷♂️ Still want me to look it over?

Dang, you too? I havent been playing nearly as long, but I still havent gotten around to playing a Druid.

The class just never appealed to me.
I think pre-Tasha's I was the same way, but I am intrigued by the Wildfire and Stars subclasses. I hope to give one of those a try one of these days

I've run druids in a couple of one-shots, but never as a campaign character. And it's fine, I got the SAN check I needed. You can poke at it if you like, I just have to figure out what I'm doing with the level 14 ability before I can call it tentatively sorted. Not that I can publish it, the homebrew system's giving me guff even if it wasn't a "FIFY" "Impingment on Wizards' copyrights".

We’ll leave it up for a while, who knows who all might drop a line in there. And most of these FIFYs are unpublishable, which is why we’re posting them in this thread for people to copy.
Honestly, I think I have run out of subclasses I would want to "fix" for this sub. There are plenty of others that I think could use touch-ups on certain abilities or features, but none that really require a large-scale overhaul.
That being said, I am really enjoying this series. As another thing one could potentially "fix" for WotC, how would people feel about reworking/reviving old UA that never made it publication?

If you're looking for subclasses to fix... I'd suggest:
Druid Circle of Spores - I've seen a couple played b/c people love, love, love the theme, but they are always disappointed in the performance. Circle of the Land
Wizard School of Necromancy War Mage
Rogue Inquisitor - Interesting Flavour but you really get almost nothing above being a generic rogue, the rogue chassis is good enough that it's playable but that's the best I can say about it.
Bard College of Whispers - Flavour is amazing here but the mechanics just suck... College of Valor - This subclass is supposed to fulfill the needs of everyone who wants to play a Skald or Bardbarian type character, but the fact that people instead play MC BardxBarbarian (which is just an awful pairing) instead demonstrates just how bad this subclass is...
Barbarian Storm Herald - This is such a cool concept for a subclass but the execution makes is completely unplayable.
Artificer Alchemist - Another neat concept that loads of people want to play, until they actually read the subclass and see that the mechanics make it utterly worthless.
Cleric Nature Domain - It's awfulness goes unnoticed b/c people can just play a druid which is infinitely better than this worthless trash of a subclass.
Sorcerer Storm Sorcery - Another neat concept, but the Blue Draconic Sorcerer is just a better storm-themed sorcerer than this garbage.
So it took me a little while because Crud Kept Happening, but I think I finally locked down my FIFY Circle opf the Shepherd, here: Circle of the FIFY Shepherd. I edited my last post to include the up-to-date images of the class features after doing Sposta's language/style cleanup pass. Give it a look-see, and if you find no major faults I'm willing to call it fixed.
If people would like to give my two Monk subclass reworks (Long Death and Sun Soul) as well as my rework of the Arcane Archer one more look over, I think those are nearly ready to call "fixed"
Also, Sposta, could you add my War Magic wizard rework to the fixing list? Thanks

Was looking at the Order of the Profane Soul for Mercer's Bloodhunter class and had a few thoughts on how to improve it. Any thoughts on including it in this series, or do we want to stick to strictly "official" material?

I don't have a problem with it.
Aren't Bloodhunters technically official now anyway since they're published on DnDbeyond and WOTC owns DnDbeyond?

The UA Stars Druid looked interesting to me too.

Ooh. I forgot about War Mage. Might give that one a go.

You beat me to it
Please, feel free to share your ideas on that thread! We want to make it the best version it can be

Love it! I did this for the storm sorcerer and the draconic bloodline
For draconic bloodline I made an additional spell list for all 15 dragon types that were entirely based off the Dragon spellcasting from Fizbans.
I have to add those all into tables, so I'll do that and post a thread and share it here

Unless you guys have any other suggestions or comments, I'm good with calling the Death Domain "fixed."
I’m frantically trying to complete a PDF for publication, I’ll update the fixed/fixing lists as soon as I get the bandwidth for it. I promise.
