Class-specific items are much like other items. They have a variety of stats and types, can be found magical, Rare, Unique, and sometimes in Sets as well. The real difference is that these items can only be used by one character class, and they can have random bonuses to individual skills, much like the ones you see on wands/staves/scepters in Diablo II. This is in contrast with magic items possessing class-specific Skill Level and Druid Skill Tree prefixes, which may be used by classes other than the Druid without benefiting from the skill modifiers.

Druids have special Animal Pelts for their class-specific gear. These have bonuses to individual Druid skills as inherent properties, and can also get magical bonuses to Druid skill trees or even all skills. Since Druids are very into +skills from their equipment, a good class-specific helm is probably the best possible item for your character.

Animal Pelts cannot be gambled in the Expansion, they must be found.

List of Unique Druid Helms

Inherent Bonuses

Any Druid helm may have +1-3 points in up to 3 individual skills from all three of his skill trees, Summoning, Shape-shifting, and/or Elemental. Repair costs can be very high for higher level skill bonuses though.

Item Level: Chests and monsters must be at least this level to drop the item. Ilvl is used in gambling, sales and other calculations as well.
Clvl Req: Your character must be this level or higher to equip the item.
The hue and color of base items in Diablo II can vary greatly, depending on the item's modifiers.
