How well will one of these do in PvP with a set-up like this:

Skills:
20 Firestorm, Molten Boulder, Volcano, Fissure, Fire Claws
2 Lycanthropy
1 Werewolf, Werebear, Feral Rage, Maul, Shockwave, Raven, Spirit Wolf, Oaksage
(At level 99 ... at lvl 92 I'll prolly not have the 2nd point in lycanthropy and points into fissure/volcano)

Equipment:
Jalal’s + Ber
Chains of Honor
Stormshield + Res All/Fire Resist/FHR/-Req Jewel
Bloodfist
IK Boots
Trang Belt
For the weapons, I'm going Phase blade with 4x Shael and 2x 15 IAS/AR jewels for melee, and getting a war scythe with 4x shael and 2x 15 IAS/Res all for casters on weapon switch.
As for jewelry, I'm thinking Mara’s and 2x BK for casters and Angelics for melee (or maybe something like Metalgrid with 2x Ravens)
Charms:
10x SS/FRW GCs
For melee, I'll prolly switch out some of these for lifers
5x 36 AR/20 Life SCs
4x 36 AR/5% FHR SCs

I will also use a demon limb for enchant and maybe a CTA if im not too lazy.

This gives me 87% FHR, 50% DR, close to max resists, 25+K AR (with angelics), 110% FRW, and 4pa attack speed. However, I've been wondering about FRW ... how much will this char need? Also, is there any sense in going for the 152 FHR breakpoint? Also, is there a good reason to get armageddon (and having 1K less fire claws damage) for stunlock or something? Finally, if I need more FRW/FHR/other stuff, what kind of EQ changes do you suggest, and what kind of mods should I get on the SS charms?
Thanks in advance!

With those gear you're better off making another char.

Pure FC Druids = Crap Defense.

Any decent melee can rip you apart. Your slow run and not able to tele makes you vulnerable to casters also.

I had a fire claws bear. They are pretty good against some zealots if luck is on ur side. You just better have max block and hope one of ur many hits connect.
