I didn't take any UMD ranks, and Restoration is not on the druid list, much to my chagrin. Had I to start over, I would probably rebuild Fakerek as a cleric with the earth domain and priest of the waste feat. But I'm not going to change him this close to joining the game. Besides, I'm happy with him as he is. A cleric variation would just help the party with some of the more difficult to heal effects. Ex. negative levels, death, and ability drain.
