=== {{PAGENAME}} in a nutshell===
The Druid Wilder is an attachment that provides a free upkeep for your warlock and does a little healing or fury management for living beasts only. She also extends your warlocks beast control.

Because of her paper thin armour she is often dead if something can get a bead on her, making it difficult to get the most from Herding.

As she lives in totally different themes to the other available warlock attachment she still has a niche, but it is sometimes hard to justify 3 points for what is essentially a free upkeep a turn and spells reminiscent of a single [[Shifting Stones |shifting stone]]; added clauses of being spells (not effects) and only affecting ‘living’ warbeasts make it a even less favourable comparison.

=== Combos & Synergies ===
* Any warlock with an upkeep spell (i.e. most of them)
** [[Kaya2]] deserves mention here as her feat allows lots of models to be in 1 rough area, perfect for shepherds call.

=== Drawbacks and Downsides ===
* If you don't want the free upkeep, [[Shifting Stones]] do everything else better, with the possible exception of fury removal if you have 4+ beasts needing fury removed.
* Tying into the above: Most high level players consider all but a few living circle warbeasts to be below the curve and inferior to Wolds, and her usefulness is very much tied to said living warbeasts.
* Herding is very situational. Don't count this as an extended control range for your beast, because CMD 6" is pretty small and she definitely does not want to be within 6" of a beast that just committed.
* Can’t help construct warbeasts with either spell. In Bones she is mostly a free upkeep.

=== Tricks and Tips ===

* She can be taken for free in any theme she can be played in, but won't be, because all of them have better and more expensive cards available.
* While it won't come up often, her weapon is magical with 2 inch reach and she threatens 11 inches on a charge.
