Druid and Tower shields question

[joenic2]

Does any know if Druids can take tower shields if they take the following T5 enhancement in the nature protector tree?

Force of Nature: You gain [10/15/20]% resistance against Force damage and +[1/2/3] Constitution. Your attunement to Nature is emboldened - Your Druidic Oath is no longer broken by wearing metal armor or shields.

In the class description under normal circumstances, it allows shields if they are not metal but specifically says No tower shields so I am not sure if this will work.

you are not prificient and you have malus to attack.

Ok. I don't mind that. (-2 attack and not get the PRR something like tat) It looks then that I will be able to shapeshift and cast druid spells then. Thanks for reply.

if i'm not wrong you should get the +15 prr from tower shield even if you are not proficient (you should not get the armor PRR if you are not proficient in that armor).

Druids aren't barred from using tower shields; they just don't start with tower shield proficiency, so they suffer non-proficiency penalties (i.e., Armor Check Penalty is applied to attack rolls). If you're a pure caster druid, though, this probably won't matter to you.

Druids are barred from using any metal armor and shields unless they take Force of Nature, but there are a few non-metal tower shields, e.g., Demonic Slab.
