Completing the helm of armor quest really doesn't make sense for druids. .
Second, a druid would find it to be utter ridiculousness to go around collecting (and don't even talk about making) fabricated weapons to support the protection of civilization.
Knowing the reward is meta gaming I think, I do not remember them telling you before what you will get. I could be wrong it was a really long time ago since I did the quest.
It makes sense to me if you have a character who likes to help out.
Maybe your and many other druids have beliefs like that, but I reread the lore on druids and I could not find any mention of it. I agree it would be ridiculous to collect said weapons for druids.
Until that changes my druid will not be conservative like your druid. He realizes that kicking people back into the stone ages will not be helpful. He is allowed to use a scimitar for a reason.
What are the general ways for druids to cook food? Roasting on sticks and in leaves. But do they use stone pots for boiling?
And as for scimitars, the folks in DnD should never have allowed druids to use those if you ask me J The same argument I used for metal weapons applies to scimitars as well, but then we’d be a bit too restrictive, so we didn’t.
One last note, as was mentioned in one of the posts linked above. Ed doesn't care for scimitar wielding druids but he allows it because of mechanics issues.
I wouldn't go around flaunting the use of the weapon as some kind of proof that it's alright to use metal. This team has been known to clear up those kinds of misconceptions by simply removing the source all together.~row
For the above reasons, the druids would seriously frown on and perhaps penalize a member of theirs who was working with the town for completely frivolous or disruptive needs. It has been long on this server held that druids would have nothing to do with this item anyway.
I'm not sure where you get your assumption that other druids think they should be kicking people back into the stone ages, but you are wrong about the conservative nature of druids. Druids are literally conservative by nature.
1) touching worked metal who's mere presence on their person can disrupt their connection with nature,
What town? Llast? Haven? Is either town known as an enemy of nature? I have not heard of it so my druid cannot act as being aware of it. As far as in game is concerned, whether the weapons go to help a town who tries to have a balance with nature or a town that is a complete enemy of nature it is all speculation on my part.Unless I have a list to check against I am going to assume that towns are generally not complete exploiters of nature.
I handle coins on a daily basis and ICly buy and sell things using coins. I assumed carrying metal weapons for a few minutes would not matter that much. You have to breath to live, but you can hold your breath for a minute or two if you want to dive under water.Now this leads to loot, are no druids looting metal things to sell/trade or carry for companions?
I feel the same way about elven druids being able to use bows, but alas...
