When to use hive table over druid table

I've begun exploring Druid since hearing about the Druid + Hive integration. From what I can see, Druid tables offer real-time querying and way quicker pre-aggregation. With that in mind, I'm curious asa to when Hive tables would be used over Druid tables? Maybe when you have to calculate statistics ( average, SD ) ?
