Hey all,
Im coming back to d2 with the new ladder reset and have thought about racing a wolf druid as my first char. I have alot of exp at pvp and pvm but havnt played for quite some time. I just have a few questions about werewolf druid and a few things id like to run by the pro's.
1. Build - I was thinking of going for maximum pvm damage and I will be lvling with a mate (summonmancer) so thought this build might work well.
Werewolf - 20 pts
Lycanthropy - 20 pts
Feral Rage - 20 pts
Fury - 20 pts
Heart of the Wolverine - 20 pts
I chose these to maximise my damage output. I chose HotW > Oak because I will have my mates summons tanking alot of the damage and HotW will also help his minions quite a bit.
2. Stats - I plan to get the following stats:
Str - Minimal (just enough for gear)
Dex - Not sure (Being early in the ladder season im not sure if my gear is going to give me enough AR to allow me to hit hell diff monsters without a little dex, if you have any ideas help here would be great.)
Vit - All my extra stats
Ene - Nothing
3. Gear - Gear im not too sure about, from what ive read I want a nice fast Main hand with a shield in the off hand. Other than that I think I have a fair idea of what items id be after.
4. Last questions - Last thing I wasnt sure about was rabies, should I swap one of the skills I have and max rabies instead? (keep in mind this is for PvM). Only other question I had was about PvP, how do Wolf druids perform? With the new respec option @ around lvl 90 i could possibly respec to a better pvp build if they are viable.
Thanks all and sorry for the wall of text. If you have any nice guides or resources that would help answer my questions it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
