Ever since Ashley Johnson from Critical Role introduced her new wildfire druid character Fearne Calloway, there's been a major increase in interest for the subclass and I'm happy to say it's one of the better options. So, if you're interested in starting a forest fire, healing some folks, and destructive tendencies, here's a bit more depth on how they work.

A wildfire druid gets a little flaming buddy called a wildfire spirit. It can be a primal spirit, a beast form, or even a humanoid figure, so long as it's fiery. When you first gain the archetype at 2 nd level, you form a mystical bond with a "wildfire spirit" and you get to summon it as an action to a spot within 30 feet by expending a use of your wild shape feature. The spirit stat block is based off your stats and proficiency bonus and advances in hit points and damage as you advance in druid level.

However, a wildfire druid's wildfire spirit isn't terribly strong as other summon spells go, and its strength at early levels is in a "burst" of fire damage when you summon it. Creatures other than you within 10 feet of your wildfire spirit when it's summoned take 2d6 fire damage (reflex save to halve), and you can summon wildfire spirit up to 30 feet out. It can then keep popping up with bursts of fire damage using its fiery teleportation feature, making your fiery buddy a nice little source of damage output during levels 2-5.
