Pantallica's Furious Druid

[PantallicA]

Yeah, this is nothing new. But the site doesn't have a guide on it anyway. This is what I came up with -

Gear--

Helm- Cerebus' Bite
Armor -- Fortitude
Weapon1 -- Ebotd Tmaul (for 1 hit ko's)
Weapon2 -- Grief Phase Blade
Shield -- Stormshield, or Phoenix
Switch -- CTA and Spirit)
Belt - Dungo's
Boots - Gores
Rings - Angelics or Bk/raven
Ammy - Angelic or highlords
Gloves - Steelrends

Stats --

Str- Enough for Tmaul - Use gear bonuses)
Dex - Enough for gear, plus some if you don't use angelics.
Vita- all the rest
No Energy

Inventory -

10x Shapeshift Skillers
1x Anni
9x 5allres/20life scs

Skills -

Fury
Werewolf
Lycanthropy
Oak Sage

Overview---

If what I read is accurate, then this druid should have well over 11k life. The reason I don't pump up dexterity is because you're not going to need it with the Cerebus. (Mine gives +115% ATR) I'm not sure about the resistances in hell, but I'd imagine they'd be pretty decent if you Um'd everything. Defense should be pretty high with the SS, so you should be able to melee rather decently.

I'm making this Druid now. Shouldn't take too long to finish him. I've always torn apart another character to make a new one, but now I've started building my accounts. I don't have much to trade, so all I can is on my mules, and whatever I bot. Maybe I can get some donations? I need shapeshift gcs


Well, there's my guide. Maybe Silver can post it in the druid guides.
Thanks for reading,
Pantallica.

id like to test this guide first before i try posting it. does: a) grief+phoenix give high enough dmg and ias to kill people. b) does grief+ss do enough dmg (and have enough %dr) to kill melee ww barbs. c) could it kill fuggles fc druid without using phoenix or infernos. i'd like to have a few people (tahu13,aznavatar,losttrance,fuggle) test out this build and maybe correct it (if it needs correcting). to ensure that this build is as powerful as possible before its submitted. (so no one can say it sucks).

[PantallicA]

Well I'm working on it right now Currently level 16. (Well, I'm not working on it. My best IRL friend is leveling him for me.)

[Keitaro]

There is only one thing i react on, and that is that you use Cerebus instead of Jalas. I belive Jalas have better mods than Cerebus. But if you want that open wounds mod, then Cerebus is good.


Cerebus:
+130-140% Enhanced Defense (varies)
60-120% Bonus to Attack Rating (varies)
7-10% Life Stolen Per Hit (varies)
33% Chance of Open Wounds
+2-4 To Shape Shifting Skills (Druid Only) (varies)
+1-2 To Feral Rage (Druid Only)

Jalas:
+150-200% Enhanced Defense (varies)
30% Faster Hit Recovery
20% Bonus To Attack Rating
+2 To Druid Skill Levels
All Resistances +30
+5 To Mana After Each Kill
+20 To Strength
+20 To Energy
+2 To Shape Shifting Skills (Druid Only)

Cerebus is more for the AR I believe.

[Keitaro]

Yes, but werewolf skill gives hug ar from before...

[Warslut]

Not really I had about 7k with Jalahs last time I made one... Cerebus really helps especially when you have no shield. Don't want to miss.

[Keitaro]

How much dex you think you had that time?

[Warslut]

Probubly about 120, was about 4 months ago so can't tell off the top of my head.

[Fuggle]

Only problem with those is that any melee char can just about take them out quick. Since their speed is low and ar isnt tooo amazing, they dont hit often. Yes they do massive massive dmg with tmaul and 1 hit many people but anyone with decent dr% and over 2k life can take a hit. My fc druid will rip through that char in seconds, as long as he isnt gay and uses massive sorb. I dueled one that had tmaul gear, Took him 3 hits to get me out of Bear form (No bo). So yes they do 1 hit ko many people, but the people with lots of life that this druid would normally be fighting have high defence and life. Not to mention dr% is at least 15%.
EDIT: funny how i was mentioned a few times in Silvers post.

[Keitaro]

he tell he gonna use angelics, so he would have awsome atr with werewolf skill.
i bet 20K+ with aroud 160Dex.. *just teory*

[PantallicA]

With grief + phoenix, I'd rip through you, fuggle I could always pull a nice trick out of my *** with some angelics and ar charms.

[Crown]

Let me know what your resistances are like when you get into hell. I'm interested to see how well they will hold up.

[PantallicA]

Will do. I'll post screenshots of his stats once he's level 80.

[Silver Ice]

lemme know how this build goes vs fuggles fcer... im hoping aznavatar and losttrance will test this too.

[Fuggle]

With grief + phoenix, I'd rip through you, fuggle I could always pull a nice trick out of my *** with some angelics and ar charms.

Phoenix=Sorb, Sorb=gay. Simple as that. But you make that char and Ill duel you, I just have to give my fc some gear back.

[Siluru]

I think without having enough IAS Fuggle's FClawer is going to tear through that build like a hot knife through butter. Unless you got some sort of stratagy, I don't think Fury druids attack quick enough, and since they are melee damage they can't just throw on a 6x Shael'd Phase.

[snoboy]

actually they can throw one on, if u get psn sc u can throw one on easily, but en ways, yeah pant srry to say btu i dont think that ur druid is goign to rip through fuggle, fuggles fc druid is godly, it takes alotta absorb to absorb it, and ur attack will be to slow, u wont hit everytime, so by the time u do a full fury fuggle will ahve done like 10+ attack with fc.

[PantallicA]

I've dueled fuggle's fc before. Tell you the truth, I pretty much rape it =/

I'll be attacking nearly as fast as fuggle, but my dmg isn't elemental. It's all physical. I can absorb his fire with my phoenix, and if worse comes to worse, i'll toss a dwarf star on. My druid will be fine.

[snoboy]

o really? i appoligize very much so, since u onyl get speed in werewolf form ebotdmaul and i know thats slowwwwwwww, but i am very srry. grats to u on ownin it
