The best build to ever exist. Max Twister, Spirit of Briars (Barbs is just, strange), Solar Creeper, and Arctic Blast. The strategy, summon SoB and SC, cast Twister/Arctic Blast, then weep as you are mowed down in Act 1 Normal Blood Moor.

I'm joking. Casters fit what you are looking for. They aren't as item equipment as melee builds. The safest would, in my opinion, would be the Earth (Fire) Druid. Unlike the Wind Druid, you can target from farther away, but the shots are more random. Also, the Fire Druid doesn't have to spam a spell, unless you choose to use Firestorm in which you do spam, but with a delay. So you can basically, cast a spell, have a Solar Creeper (you could place points into PC and Carrion Vine, or get a +1 Solar Creeper bonus from a normal item) to recover the mana that you haven't regenerated yet. IIRC, 80 Energy should be MORE than enough if you don't plan on getting lots of +%Mana equipment. The only exception to the far range casting is Armageddon. You could "aim" it better by dashing through enemy lines as the meteors follow you.

Wind Druid is more, intense. This build will require you to be closer to the battle. They have the advantage of Cyclone Armor which will help you live longer against elemental attacks, Tornado, and the chilling effect of Hurricane to increase your survival. It could be your MF character. A sorc is better in my opinion for more damage. (Don't hurt me!)

I bid that you fare well and that luck frowns...er smiles upon thee!

I am biased for a huntermentalist but mehhh....

max bear and HoW on the summon tree
max volcano and fissure on the elemental tree

use a bow to help the bear and your might merc out

this gives you 4 sources of damage...you, your merc, your bear and your volcano or fissure.

Works great even untwinked :thumbsup:

I would say a wind druid or a wolf build that uses IK items .. both are relatively cheap.

Why not Poison Creeper. You get it at the start of the game and can be used to deal some good damage.

I bet several people are rolling their eyes at this. :p

Creeper is making a comeback, actually. :)
