That's fine, but let's get back to Zarathustra's question of how we would tune a legendary item "to make it suitable for an endgame Druid." You may have good enough gear to do fine now, but that shouldn't stop you from getting even better items. If a legendary druid item becomes available, I'm simply stating that to be legendary status, it ought to switch forms on the fly for the druid as the druid switches forms. Otherwise, it becomes yet another item that gets swapped in and out for the druid, which would diminish its "legendary" status to me.
And regarding the comparison of the Mace of Unending Life to Jindo's Hexxer, the Mace of Undending Life is +damage/healing, while Jindo's Hexxer is only +healing. Plus, the Mace of Undending Life has 2 more int, 4 more stamina, and 7 more agility.
Comparisons to current day items aside, though, a legendary druid item ought to have different strengths depending on what form the druid is in and the item budget cost for abilities that are only active in different druid forms should be counted seperately from one another.
