Though beginning their training along the same path as a Druid, the Warden takes an entirely different turn, becoming a warrior instead of a caster. Though he's not quite as powerful as the pure warriors are, he has a significant advantage in that he can use healing magics, as well as learning to use archery at a low level.
A Warden fares very well alone, he is a sufficient warrior as well as having the healing abilities to patch himself up after a battle. His enchantments provide a very nice bonus to his skills, and although he doesn't get his own specialization line he does learn a number of self-buffs that will allow him to increase his own abilities beyond what they would normally be.
Being able to buff himself completely, as well as apply a lesser number to groupmates, should make him a welcome member in any group. Though his healing abilities will never be quite as good as the other healers of the realm, they're great for emergencies and some after-battle recovery. The Warden can also stand shoulder to shoulder with the warriors, especially once he's reached a level of training high enough to give him scale armors.
