Redoing my Druid

[Rangniheldr]

Ive decided to make my fury druid a little more pvp orientated. The original had almost no Dmg red whatsoever( i noticed that after Kazama owned me about 10 times straight).

The skills were invested properly in the last build, i just need to switch a few items around.

Gear:

Jalahs Helm Upped/ Need suggestions on sockets.

Perf Enigma Bp(I'm not changing this armor, i need the speed to catch casters).

Verdungo Belt/Crafted Blood belt( very good stats, i cant remember them though, i havent been online in over 4 months. Studies in the U.S.... very time consuming, ill be online with 4 weeks though).

Upped Gore Riders

Draculs Grasp/Upped Blood Fists

2 Perf Raven/2 Angelic Rings
Highlords/Angelic Amu


Weapon/Shield:

Eth 3 sock Tombreaver/ 2 40ed 15 ias + zod

Grief Phaseblade

Stormshield/ i need a socket suggestion on this one

Charms:

9x 35+ life Shapers

18/18 Torch( im looking for a better one)

1x/1x/1x Anni( i cant remember the stats)

I dont know what kind of small charms i should use, while i was at home i was experimenting with different types. A charm with Fhr and resists seems to be the most effective. Especially if i want to hit the 76FHR brkpoint( is it 76?)

The plan was to wear dracs, verdungos, grief, and the stormshield vs smiters and ww barbs. I could drop verdungos if i put a Ber in the stormshield.

I will only invest the amount of points needed to put my gear into str and dex.
The rest will go into vitality. By level 95( and with the addition of a couple 45 lifers) i hope to have around 10k life.



Im open to comments and suggestions

Thx for all your help

Cheers Rang



P.S Solly if you still have that lld bowa stuff( shield, helm and spear) im still interested

Well, from what I could see in your build, your only two sources of +all resistance are your Enigma and your Jalal Mask... Oh wait! Enigma doesn't GIVE Resistance. :p Thought it did, but that's even worst. If you don't find a way to fix this, the 45% FRW on Enigma won't matter if you're planning to chase casters, since you'll definetely be running AWAY from them lol :p

You got like, 30 resist all from your Jalal... and that's it. :/ Boy are you in trouble. You might want to socket the Jalal with Um and the Stormshield with a Perfect Diamond. That should help a bit. You still got some way to go though. Don't expect to live against a Sorc if you got less than 30% resists, even if you DO have like 4k+ life.

i'll have 10k life ~ ~ tombreaver, torch and anni give me plenty of resists

go 2 handed vs smiters because 1) u need the dmg
2)smite is a unblockable attack
3) if he gets life tap u wont stand a chance 1 handed, so go 2 handed to kill the bastard before he does



imo bloodfists>>>draculs because it provides 40life(alot in ww form) and 30fhr wich brings you to a nice breakpoint

if u wanna catch casters maybe a frw craft amu is the way to go for you, 2 druid skills/10frw/stats/res<--sounds cool doesnt it?

good to see u rebuilding your druid...is it an hybid or pure fury druid (note: rabies kills casters/barbs (most of the times)

sock suggestion on storm:40ed/20life jewel or 30max jewel if u can afford it otherwise 40ed/7fhr if u need the fhr :) or a nice rare jewel
craft belt is nice aswell vs casters(24fhr<--not 17fhr, if u cant afford a craft one u can get a rare one aswell with 24 fhr)

30fhr jalals(shael for 50)/belt=10 or craft=24 (if u nn the dmg red)/bloodfists=30 so enough/1 fhr charm gives u bp=86 with craft belt+normal jalals or shaeled jalals bp=4x u get that one with normal jalals+verdungos

imo 20life scs with nice mods or 5 frw charms is the way to go for you (5 frw spawned in 1.09 )

uhh wtf -.-

stat block ofc -.- matters only ~800life

most of what my bro said above is true^^ about smite etc

i currently(or well, when im lvl so in a year or 10) have str to use enigma+coa+tombreaver+verdugos (vs windys), dex to block with every weapon there is, and can use tombreaver+forti (vs the hated smiters, only 15%dr though ;/). guess for a pure enigma build you dont need to add str(unlesss you cant equip storm then)

fhr breaks at 48% and 86% :)


ps. come msn more often ^^

1. I know that smite is ublockable, i just needed storm for the dmg red.
2. I have a Coa Ber/Ber, it gives about 25dmg red + 8 from enigma and 15 dmg red from verdungos so that almost hits the breakpoint.
3. Blood fist are really valuable vs smiters/fast casting sorcs so i'll mostly use them

After all these suggestions, especially if you guys think coa ber ber is the way to go, then i dont need to change my druid except the tombreaver( 2 40ed 15 ias instead of the 2 shael + zod)

He is going to be fury/rabies

Thx guys

ps. about msn, its screwed up at the moment. I'll be online in 3 weeks baby

Droods forever ;-)

All in all

Use ber ber CoA, clegs and doom GPA vs smiters, gives u decent chances to win imho. At least ive won a lot more duels with that setup compared to usual tomb + etc.

I could give u mine for free just so u can test it out, its rotting on my NL converted wolf, seeing as i dont play NL, it doesnt really help me at all. Not really easy to trade it off either, as people dont know what to use it for.

P.S. Oh and im pretty sure u play Europe NL, if not just disregard this.
