BARBARIANS DON'T TRUST DRUIDS!
Not that there's much of a storyline to the game, but doesn't anyone remember the Mage Wars (what is it with RPGs and these horrific Mage Wars, that ultimately lead to magic being forbidden? Hasn't it been done enough? It was great in FF6; it's getting old now ;))? Qual-Khek even says "A Druid in Horragath! Has it really come to this?..." etc. Druids broke apart from their Barbarian cousins after the wars, and formed their own little society. While next of kin, neither has much like or trust for the other, because of the ancient history (remember the bit about the two brothers? The kings, or whatnot? Bul Kathos, and someone else, IIRC; didn't they have some sort of fight, or something?).
So, tell me: just HOW much sense does it have for a Barbarian to be taking on the skills of a person THEY DON'T LIKE OR TRUST?!
And people wonder why I don't like 1.10. Not only is it trashing the game's gameplay, but also the story! BAH!
